The Olight ArkTac Ultra brings Olight's flat ArkPro form factor to the tactical market: a 17 mm-thin unibody that carries like a wallet but gives instant, one-press access to the light you need. Five light sources (pure flood, spotlight, red light, UV and a green laser) combine into ten configurations, including four laser combinations and Instant Strobe; the spotlight peaks at 1,800 lumens and 11,556 candela for a 215-meter beam, the pure flood reaches 1,300 lumens, the red light 55 lumens and the UV 1,200 mW. Control is split into two zones: a two-stage tail switch jumps straight to Turbo Spotlight (or Spotlight + Green Laser) and Pure Flood, while the CommandPoint next to it fires Strobe by default and can be reassigned to Red Light, UV or Green Laser. The front rotary selector handles mode selection and brightness. The body is machined from OAL², Olight's strongest aluminum alloy to date, in a brushed black finish, with illuminated source indicators, the ArkBeat usage indicator, a micro-perforated status display, a diamond-cut grip and a reinforced strike bezel with embedded zirconium beads. It is rated IPX7 and drop-tested to 1.5 meters. ToF (time-of-flight) sensing locks the light out if an obstruction is detected within 5 cm of the lens before activation, preventing accidental activation, overheating and battery drain in a pocket or pack. A built-in 2,050mAh battery charges by USB-C or the included MCC4 magnetic cable, and Moonlight runs for up to 20 days. It is also compatible with Olight's optional ArkSnap magnetic holster (sold separately) for belt, duty gear and MOLLE carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
What light modes does the Olight ArkTac Ultra have?
The Olight ArkTac Ultra has five light sources: a 1,300-lumen pure floodlight, a 1,800-lumen spotlight that throws 215 meters, a 55-lumen red light with Low and SOS modes, 1,200 mW of 365nm UV and a green laser switchable between Class 3R and Class 1. They combine into ten configurations, including four laser combinations and an Instant Strobe.
How is the Olight ArkTac Ultra different from the standard ArkTac?
The ArkTac Ultra adds the green laser, raises the spotlight from 1,700 to 1,800 lumens and from 205 to 215 meters, adds the ArkBeat usage indicator, and upgrades from 6061 aluminum to OAL². Pure flood (1,300 lumens), red light, UV, battery, controls and IPX7 rating are the same.
How is the Olight ArkTac Ultra different from the ArkPro?
The Olight ArkTac Ultra is the tactical version of Olight's flat-light platform. Instead of a single rotary dial it adds a two-stage tail switch for instant Spotlight or Pure Flood, a programmable CommandPoint shortcut (Strobe by default), a red light, and compatibility with Olight's ArkSnap magnetic holster (sold separately) for duty carry. It also upgrades to the OAL² aluminum body.
What does the CommandPoint on the Olight ArkTac Ultra do?
The CommandPoint is a dedicated shortcut button beside the tail switch. Out of the box it fires Strobe with one press; you can reassign it to Red Light, UV or Green Laser so your most-used secondary light is always one press away.
Is the Olight ArkTac Ultra waterproof?
The Olight ArkTac Ultra is rated IPX7, so it can handle rain, snow and temporary submersion, and it is drop-tested to 1.5 meters.
How long does the Olight ArkTac Ultra run?
Runtime depends on the mode: Pure Flood Medium (200 lumens) runs 6 hours, Low (15 lumens) runs 72 hours, and Moonlight (1 lumen) runs up to 20 days. The green laser runs 90 hours on Class 3R and 260 hours on Class 1.
How do you charge the Olight ArkTac Ultra?
The Olight ArkTac Ultra has a built-in 2,050mAh battery that charges through its USB-C port with any standard cable, or magnetically with the included MCC4 charging cable.
Does the Olight ArkTac Ultra come with a holster?
No. The standard Olight ArkTac Ultra ships with the light and the MCC4 magnetic charging cable; Olight's ArkSnap magnetic holster is sold separately. The Olight ArkTac Ultra Premium kit includes the same light plus the ArkSnap holster, a mounting bracket and two charging cables in a hard carry case.
Is the Olight ArkTac Ultra a good duty or EDC light?
Yes. At 17 mm thick the Olight ArkTac Ultra carries flat in a pocket on its clip or in the optional ArkSnap magnetic holster on a belt or MOLLE, and its tail-switch access to Turbo Spotlight and Pure Flood is designed for law enforcement, security and outdoor users who need a specific light instantly.
What makes the Olight ArkTac Ultra a tactical flashlight?
A tactical flashlight is built for instant, one-handed access to full output under stress instead of cycling through modes. The Olight ArkTac Ultra does that with a two-stage tail switch that jumps straight to its 1,800-lumen Turbo Spotlight (or Spotlight + Green Laser) or 1,300-lumen Pure Flood, a CommandPoint shortcut for Instant Strobe, and a reinforced, IPX7-rated OAL² body, all in a 17 mm-thin rechargeable flat flashlight that also carries as an everyday light.
