Streamlight Flashlights

Cal68 · Oct 24, 2018

Hi All

I've seen some good reviews for Streamlight Flashlights on this forum so I thought that I would let y'all know that some of them are the "Deal of the Day" on Amazon today (24Oct2018). I've never priced them anywhere else so I do not know if the deal is any good or not, but y'all can check them out on Amazon. Enjoy.

Thanks. I snagged one. I've got a few of the old protac 2ls an 1ls. They've been perfect. One example of their durability, I kept one clipped on me when bridge-diving at lake norris at night. Despite keeping it on and repeatedlu jumping from a bridge into water, the light had zero issues. Now, I regularly give them to my sons for flashlight baths if they're grumpy about taking a bath. Fill tub with bubbles, turn lights off and give them a streamlight 1l/2l and suddenly they're happy to take baths. The 1ls are perfect for them when we do flashlight tag around the house as well(subtly teaching them room searching and movement tactics in game form...they can slice that pie with the best of them). I'm glad this new version bumped up to 500 lumens and that it now takes 18650s. Now I just need the tlr1hl to be a daily deal for that new ar pistol...

Streamlight is a step up from Maglite, but there are many flashlight companies out there that offer more lumens, more features, more durability, and often lower prices. There's nothing wrong with Streamlight, but you can get more from other companies. Streamlight is good at sale prices but not at retail prices, IMHO.

I've been carrying a Stylus every day for the last two years and it's held up great.

I’ve carried a protac 2aaa everyday for almost four years now and it’s still going strong. This is great, thanks.

Thanks for the tip.

How well do usb charged flashlights work?

F-Stop · Oct 24, 2018

I have a couple Streamlights. Work well. I like the stylus. I have not bought any in a while since buying a few Olights. I may jump on stylus. Maybe good Christmas gifts.

The Olights I have with the usb ported batteries work really well for me. So do the magnetic tail cap charging.

thanks for heads up. ordered one to go with the thousand other lights (so the wife claims) I have....always good to have backups

I have EDC'd the Olight S10R Baton II for several years. 500 lumens, low, medium, high, moonlight and strobe modes, USB rechargeable with magnetic base. Small, pocket-friendly design. THis is a great light and at $50 it's a steal.

I have a number of Streamlight flashlights. My favorite is the MicroStream. It's not the brightest, but it's tough and the form factor is great. As others have said, you don't usually get the latest and greatest emitter technology with Streamlight, but IMO you usually get the most rugged and reliable light.

I recently purchased these from Amazon "Gold Armour 4Pack Portable LED Camping Lantern (EMITS 350 LUMENS!) LED Lantern Lights for Emergency, Hurricane, Power Outage, Great Gift Set, Gear Accessories Equipment" (CLF100)

Five-star rating.

$25 for four lanterns/flashlights with magnetic bottom includes batteries. 350 lumens.

Streamlight and Olight make up most of my flashlight collection.

This has been my go to for years. Had the TK15 before that but I lost it somewhere.

The battery life on low is amazing. And 1000 lumens is amazing. :party29:

I just bought a MicroStream last week. It’s perfect to carry because it’s just a bit bigger than the AAA battery that powers it. Love it.
