Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought this light and the streamlight microstream usb at the same time. Its a quality light, but about a 1/3rd longer than the usb version. Great light, small and handy for every day on the job use. Hours battery life.
Good battery life, and tough as nails. Durable as well. It gets heavy use every day in oily and dusty environments.
Great flashlight. Nice and compact. No complaint. Would recommend a small amount of grease be applied.
Simple on off switch without annoying high,low and strobe modes. No * useless features and strobes to cycle through.
Small and compact package fits in a chest or pant pocket. Fits nicely in the pen pocket of my coveralls. The usb is always in my pocket, and this thing stays home as backup.
Cons
The green light is gimmicky. Need to slightly unscrew the cap and it works sometimes. Unbeliecably cheaply made.
Highlights
Quality
Just the quality i’ve come to expect from streamlight.
Great quality, bright well made, have already bought a 2nd one.
Seems to be the same quality and weight.
Competitiveness
Not a fan of the pocket clip used but i switched the two-way one from a microstream aaa on this switch and it's just right.
Use it as an edc and backup to my streamlight polytac x or when the polytac x is too much light for the situation.
Price point for this light might be slightly more than some competitors, and much more than knock off lights, but you get what you pay for.
