The Olight ArkPro is the upgraded Arkfeld Pro: a flat pocket light with a 1500-lumen floodlight, an 800-lumen spotlight to 205 meters, a UV light, and a green beam that can run alone or with any of the three, which gives seven configurations from one body. It charges by USB-C or magnetic dock, clips two ways, and sticks to steel by a magnetic base. This review covers the four emitters, the flat form, and how to carry it.

Four emitters
Flood for the room, spot for the distance, UV for checking a bill or a leak, and a green beam for pointing. The green beam has its own button and combines with any of the others, which is how you get seven configurations. It is the most tools in a pocket light.
The flat body
A flat light sits in a pocket like a phone and does not roll off a table. The dual-direction clip holds it on a shirt or a hat brim as a hands-free light, and the magnetic base sticks it to a car body or a toolbox.
Charging and indicators
USB-C for anywhere, a magnetic dock for the desk. White indicator for brightness level, green for battery.
Carry
Olight makes a belt holster for the ArkPro, ArkPro Lite and ArkPro Ultra, $9.99. For a flat light the clip is usually enough.
Charging, tint and the sealed battery, honestly
Two complaints followed the Arkfeld and they are worth separating. Charging: the original Arkfeld was magnetic-dock only; the ArkPro charges over USB-C as well as the dock, which fixes it. Tint: the cool-white emitter reads greenish to some eyes, and owners who compared them prefer the neutral-white version; if you can choose, choose NW. The battery is built in and not user-replaceable, which is true of every flat light in this class. The budget alternative people name is the Wurkkos HD01 Pro; it is cheaper and has no UV or green beam, which is the ArkPro's whole argument.
