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

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

This is my second Strion and I really love them! Bright focused beam with a long throw and a wide angle up close. Holds a charge forever when not using the light. Battery lasts a decent amount of time during continuous use

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

This type of tactical law enforcement flashlight is what my father recommended to me if I was going to ride a motorcycle at night. He was right in his assessment of this flashlight. Its very bright and I like it alot and now I have three of them. its very expensive but I understand the reason why cuz its a lifetime flashlight. You can recharge it yourself. You dont need to continue buying batteries for it. Great little flashlight!!!

Excellent product. Very bright, compact, durable, reliable and good battery life. We have 3 or 4 of these lights and use them constantly. The on/off switch went out on one, after several years of use, and it was simple and inexpensive to replace.

Amazing light output! It can actually be a little much in some circumstances. I use this light everyday at work (as a police officer). I have only experienced one issue with this, which I also experienced with the regular Strion LED that I had prior to this light. The issue occurs when using this light for an extended time period (around 10 minutes straight). It seems that when the light gets too hot, the electronics shut it off. For most circumstances, this isnt an issue. If you are going to be using this light for extended time periods, I would recommend finding another light. Even with the type of work I do, I hardly ever use it for that long at a time. As with any light, always carry a second light if it is crucial to what you are doing.

This is a nice light, a little smaller than I imagined, but it has a good feel to it and it lights up a pitch black room with such gusto that you would think it was much larger. No complaints, the cost doesnt matter when the quality and performance are there. I have two larger Streamlight flashlights, each work flawlessly for their applications.

I retired my Strion LED that I had for four years and upgraded it with the Strion HL. Dont worry, the Strion LED is at home and still working good as new (even after uncountable drops and rolling off several car hoods and smashing into the concrete.) I thought the regular Strion LED was bright... until I had the Strion HL in my hand. The products description of battery life is accurate. The switch has a nice click sound and feel that lets you know the light has been activated. The battery charger has a good secure fit and works quickly. BUYER BEWARE, this light is extreamly bright and will leave you seeing spots if you stare into the light bulb. (Why would you do this? Good question.) The quality appears the same as the Strion LED and I have no worries with the product lasting or Streamlight standing by their tools. No regrets on this purchase.

The flashlight is super bright. The battery life is great and recharges quickly. The only issue i have with the light is the switch on the back. It will come on with very little or no pressure in a bag or pocket.

Man this thing is BRIGHT!!! I have another strion that is a few years old and it is around 260-300 lumens and I love it. I got this and noticed it was the high lumen model and is at 500 lumens! It works perfect on my older charger and is insane bright! I have a knock off light that is rated at 1,000 lumens and it doesnt seem much, if any, brighter than this. A lot of the cheap lights overrate their lumens for wow factor. Streamlight rates their lights true. My old strion and an even older stinger LED DS are still running strong and reliable as can be I just needed another light for around the house. Streamlight builds some seriously tough lights for the money, you cant go wrong with them. The main reason I stick with streamlight over other brands like surefire is that A: theyre fairly priced, not hogs like surefire and B: they are rechargeable. No need to buy crazy expensive CR123 batteries every couple weeks.
