Streamlight Stinger REVIEW

The increased lumens drain the battery faster. 600 lumens are not good for someone like a mechanic who doesn’t want to charge it after an hour or two of run time.

The flashlight works great for a while, but after some use the bulb may automatically dim after about 30 seconds of use, even when it’s fully charged.

As soon as the 30 day return period ran out the flashlight stopped.

The battery got lodged in charging port and discharged the battery. Battery is no good now.

The battery life is poor! You cannot get through two car stops without the battery dying. Sreamlight recommends having the flashlight plugged in at all times, this sometimes is not practical so do not get this light for Law Enforcement purposes.

Worked fine for about a month before it started turning itself on randomly and wouldn’t shut off without removing the battery. Tried to charge both batteries and try it again, but as soon as the battery would touch the contact inside the flashlight, it would turn on and wouldn’t shut off without removing the battery again.

Great flashlight but didn’t get the charger that was paid for.

The red light which shows charging stays on all the time. At night the brightness from the two red charging lights makes it difficult to sleep. It puts a red glow over the majority of a 12 x 12 room and where it is plugged in.

Great light but needs a lens that can be focused for long range.

Not the greatest distance for searching woods and fields. The light falls off too short. If you are looking for a good distance light that packs more lumens, the flashlight came with no lens protector. The plastic cover for the bulb was missing.

The flashlight will dim out if it’s not charged for several hours prior to use. The light is so bright at close usage that it can blind your ability to see what you’re looking at. The flashlight is a little bigger than ‘compact.’ The lens looks like it might crack if it takes a bad drop. The batteries take a very long time to charge in order to be of functional use during a typical day.

The grip is horrible for duty use. It makes pulling it out of a basket weave duty holder impossible.

It claims to be able to dim but it dims very little and it does not have memory functions to leave it in a low setting; Another thing is that you cannot leave it in low setting, it will always go back to the max output, making you cycle through all 3 setting before you get to low.

 

Surefire Lawman REVIEW

The memory function of this light is not good. To switch between modes/outputs you must quickly use the head switch until you reach your desired output. When you turn it off and turn it back on, it resorts back to your last used setting.

Surefire R1 Lawman doesn’t make the cut for patrol use.

High price tag, proprietary battery/magazine, 1000 lumens reduced to 500 with 123A magazine, SF unwilling to sell replacement li-ion.

It does not charge properly. It has some issues turning on, and does not turn off with the main switch.

 

Streamlight Strion REVIEW

The issue is with the rubber cap button- it is poorly designed and is cheaply made. After very few uses on either flashlight the button simply stopped engaging the battery.

Sometimes the tail cap won’t work and sometimes the light will stay on and won’t click off, other times you click it and it doesn’t work. After using this light for over 2 years on patrol, it has failed time and time again.

It looks sturdy but the on/off switch is defective. When needed, the switch on this failed light will go on for about a second and then go off.

The light stopped working. Although charged, it comes on and then shuts off. The only way to get it to come back in is to rotate the end off and on. It will come on again then go off.

 

Pelican 7060 REVIEW

The disappointment with this light is due to the lower lumens and no strobe feature vs. the Strion duty light. It is good enough for an impact weapon. It takes abuse just like the Strion. For PD duties it’s reliable and just bright enough.

It should have been a little brighter. This is a nice light, but the size and weight of it makes it difficult to operate the thumb switch.

The end cap of the light falls out and does not stay close. In other words, the end cap comes loose and the rubber activating buttons also tend to become defective and not work properly.

The button is sometimes hard to push to turn it on.

It does not have the option to adjust the beam of light and the battery life is a bit shorter than expected.
