Streamlight 74754 Strion LED HL 615-Lumen Rechargeable Professional Flashlight with 12-Volt DC Charger, Black

I purchased this flashlight in 2014 and can say I am very very satisficed with its performance and it is still going strong today. Just do it!

I love this flashlight! I use it for work, I have dropped it several times and it just keeps going! The only downside, it does get pretty warm when you’re using it for long periods of time, and the light dims just a little bit when that happens. But I absolutely love the flashlight and get compliments on it almost every time I use it! It’s super bright for how compact it is! The only reason for 4 stars is for the fact that it gets pretty warm and dims a little bit

Fantastic flashlight I use it all the time and charge it very little. However it does not fit the Standard stream light flashlight holster very well.

This purchase was my third of the same flashlight.. I have had my first one for many years and still use it nearly every day

I have had this now for six years and it still works the same as when I bought it. The rechargeable battery is still working ok but it takes a little longer to charge but you can replace it. I used this professionally as an armed guard at night patrolling for five of those years and it worked great as a tactical light. It allowed me to light up an entire area at night for confronting people, which is dangerous and you do not want to get to close to strangers. Light is a powerful tool at night. I am retired now and it is still my main flashlight that I use for walking early in the morning. My complaint is the tail switch sometimes does not work as well as I would like going from one light level to another. Good Luck to you. BP

These are incredibly bright, incredibly tuff very long lasting flashlights. I have one that was run over by a forklift and I replaced the switch and straightened the end and it still works great.

16 years ago I purchased my first two xenon Streamlight Stingers. Last year I updated to the LED age and purchased three new HL Stingers for work and home use, and one Survivor for emergency. I thought I would add to my collection this month by purchasing a LED Polystinger and a Strion LED HL. I have read so much pro and con for the Strion from multiple sites - but I couldnt stop my personal desire to have a Strion handy for my civilian, (non work or home projects related) usage. Granted my Strion purchase was a return caught from Amazon warehouse - of which I have never had an issue buying from there. Well, this Strion is my first ever warehouse lemon. I took it out of its repackaging, and observed the orange inspection sticker (pffft!). I clicked the light into the charger and plugged into my wall outlet. The Strion immediately began to strobe blink a very faint light. I remember reading some of the cons comments on Amazon and other sites, and said to myself So this is what some people are complaining about! The blinking light, the recharging issue, etc! I unplugged and replugged, and still the same. I immediately removed all items from my wall and repacked into the Amazon bag and box and requested a full refund, which - for now - seems like its going to be honored. Amazon, who the heck inspected this warehouse return??? And in the same regard, how this light ever make its way off the original assembly line for Streamlight customers??? So what am I saying? Im saying that I have purchased 8 Streamlight flashlights in the past 16 years. I have only ever had a problem with one of them. The other seven have been flawless performers for me. This one failure is such a worrisome problem, that I am returning it immediately. A blinking light, while charging? Bad circuitry with these powerful rechargable batteries and high heat lamps could lead to some serious property damage or personal injury (think early iPhone 4s, Hoverboards and now Galaxy Notes 7s). And, this is the one Streamlight that I have read the most consistent cons about, in spite of its FANTASTIC features and finish (yes Strion looks and feels lightweight, tough and bad assed!). I was really psyched up to carry around this beautifully crafted, light throwing device for my everyday self-protection and safety. However, based on this one bad experience - there definitely appears to be a quality control issue with this particular Strion LED, HL model. Some of us working professionals lives depend on these devices, so this needs to get fixed Streamlight. Lastly, Streamlight, I am obviously very disappointed, to say the least. Your other models have kicked butt for me, and Im sure I will continue to buy some of your products in the future. Just not a Strion LED, HL for right now. Not until you have worked out some issues. Smh.

I have one of these flashlights for years. I love them!! Hated that I lost my last one.

There is no warning before battery goes dead

Needed a better flashlight than I had for walking at night with an old dog with vision problems. I wasn’t sure the 615 lumens this produces would be sufficient. It is, in spades. Sometimes it’s too bright but it can be adjusted down. Compact and sturdily constructed. Lights up the night. If the battery holds up as advertised, this flashlight will have been a bargain but I’ve only had it a week so only time will tell.
