I bought the Arkfield because I wanted a UV EDC torch that was slim. I've got a few other Olight torches and despite their weird emails and promotions they make great torches.
I ordered the tocrch directly from Olight during a sale.
As with all the other Olight products it came quickly and was well packaged.
I chose the blue one, there's a bunch of other colours available. The UI is a simple black rotating selector with a push button to activate the light. A single push turns it on, double push and it flashes, triple push and it goes to turbo mode.

Slim body with the side switch layout I like.

Light

The torch has three light modes.
1 - White LED with 5 power levels, moonlight, low, medium, high & turbo with 1, 15, 100, 420 & 1400 lumens .
2 - 510nm green laser that is visible in a fairly well lit room, ideal as a pointer.
3 - 365nm UV lamp ideal for all the usual UV lamp stuff.

Magnetic charger attached
Three light modes.

Carry

The lamp weighs about 120gr. It's 120mm long, 27mm wide, 15mm deep (22mm at the pocket clip)
It fits in my hand nicely (obviously your hand fitment may be different to mine), and slips into a pocket well. The pocket clip holds it securely.
It doesn't have anywhere suitable for a lanyard, but then again, it's not that kind of torch.

Fuel

The lamp has a built in 1,500 mAH Lithium polymer battery.
It charges via USB and has a magnetic connection at the base. The magnet is strong and has a very satisfying clunk when it connects.
When it's charging the indicator on the connector glows red, changing to green when it's full.
There's a power level indicator just under the mode selector that shows the battery level with 4 LED bars.
