Great product! Does exactly what I bought it for – furnace and other inspections. It allows me to see inside small or otherwise inaccessible places. This is my third “Streamline” flashlight- the other two are for police/fire service. I’ve had them for years and they still work just fine.

I use this to look inside musical instruments, mainly bass violin. I use the shorter 7 inch version to look into smaller places/ instruments. I am glad I have both. Anyway, this is very very useful and well worth the money. The flexible neck on the light is stiff enough that it retains its form for as long as you need. It’s bright enough for most apps. I agree with other reviewers that the AAAA batteries are hard to find, but oh well.
This product is well made, and I expect it to last a long time. The light can be turned on with a pen-type push button (intermittent), or you can screw it on like a mag-lite.
I recommend.

I call it “Harry Potter” because it resembles a lit wand. Remember the scene in “Alien” when they are looking for the facehugger after it disappears from John Hurt’s body? The were all holding pale blue pen torches with an intense light on the end of a thin extension rod. Incredibly useful for searching in dark cavities, especially through small openings. From checking piston crowns via the spark plug hole to checking dental crowns to looking for dropped bolts under kitchen appliances: You cannot see without light! Anyway, the thing in the Alien movie was a Flexilum flexible surgical light and its main use was for checking all the cement had been removed from inside a femur after a hip replacement removal. This is the closest you will get and I have several. Only drawback is you have to be careful not to bend it too tightly a the plastic coating can crack and let fluids in (like oil and grease etc) Oh, and it takes 3 weird batteries which are sold in packs of 4. (AAAA)

This is an extremely handy light that I have found useful in numerous applications. It works very well as a borelight for guns, it can be bent so that it sits on a flat surface keeping light focused on a small area (excellent for model work), and hung over a pipe when working amongst ductwork. By twisting the tailcap, you can make the light stay on continuously (though this is nowhere to be found in the packaging) or use it intermittently by pressing the button on the tailcap. The light is quite bright for so small a bulb and the long gooseneck holds it shape very well. My only quibbles are with the tailcap not locking in to keep the light on since twisting the cap is difficult at times (especially with wet hands), and the use of AAAA batteries. And that’s no typo- you have to use AAAA batteries which are difficult to find and expensive so if you plan to use this light often, I suggest buying a replacement set of batteries when you order the light. That does make it a little pricey but you’ll be glad you did when you realize the folks at your local supercenter want to have you committed if you ask for AAAA batteries. Overall though, this is a handy (not quite so) little light to have on hand when that clunky kitchen drawer model is too awkward.

I am VW tech and this tool is by far THE MUST have in our trade. Forget those multi-LED flashlights, omni and anything in that category. Bringing source of light down to the point of interest is unbeatable.
The only strange thing I found so far is their pocket clip. I assume there probably some design explanation behind it but when I hook it up to my short pocket – …
So, I don’t think any hook or clamp is really necessary for the device.
What would benefit this design is a small but strong magnet at the opposite side of lightning point on ball-svivel kinda thing. so if one need to bright-up some spot, he/she would clank the magnet to nearest iron/steel property and twist soutce of light ass needed.
Great item, all my fellow volkswageans are buying this light.

I am a woodturner who makes a lot of hollow forms (Vases and urns). I want to ensure that the inside of my projects are of even thickness and smooth – This is a very bright light that lets me do this. I have tried multiple other brands and this is a keeper – Works so we i bought the smaller version as well .

I recently started a side hustle repairing and servicing small engines, and this light is invaluable. Only drawback is being powered by highly uncommon AAAA batteries, but i simply ordered an 8 pack here on streamlightoutlet.com so i have some spares. Great light, great quality.

Update: 6.30.2020 the fifth one they’ve replaced just broke. Yes you read that correctly. The FIFTH unit.
I wish this was better made because I love it went it works. The problem is they consistently short, the handle gets burning hot and then they stop working. I’ve sent them back to to Streamlight for “repair”, more like “replacement”, 4 times. FOUR times. Same result every time. They short out from bending the stylus. Isnt that the point?….for it to be flexible? Streamlight….go back to engineering school.
