https://greyhive.com/videos/watch/0525ca75-d6c6-4be2-b807-1d26c22fe291 Is the Olight PL-X actually 12-gauge rated?** In this Olight PL-X review and durability test, we put the new dual-beam weapon light through a 5-stage "Caliber Gauntlet" to see if a budget-friendly tactical light can survive the recoil of 12-gauge slugs on a Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol. We tested the PL-X 1200 lumen output and 22,500 candela spotlight across the Ruger RXM, Flux Raider, and 300 Blackout platforms to see if it’s the best value weapon light of 2026.

We pushed this light to the limit on five distinct host weapons to test for electronic failure, mounting security, and carbon resistance: Stage 1: Ruger RXM (9mm) – High-vibration pistol test with a Herrington Arms Comp blasting gas directly onto the lens., Stage 2: Flux Raider (9mm PDW) – High-speed strings and ergonomic stress testing on a modular chassis., Stage 3: PSA JAKL (9mm PCC) – Testing for heat-soak and sustained vibration on a heavy-rail PCC., Stage 4: OLCAN (300 Blackout) – Stepping up to rifle-grade harmonics. Does the Spot/Flood toggle hold under recoil?, Stage 5: Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol (12 Gauge) – The "Boss Fight." 12-gauge slugs vs. the PL-X's patented ratchet mount., The Verdict: Is the PL-X a "Dud" or the "Deal of the Year"? Watch the full stress test to see how it handled the 12ga fireball.
