   No switch unfortunately

   I didn’t think I’d need a remote switch for this light but now I want one and Streamlight doesn’t offer one unless you buy the light package that includes the switch. Grrrrr.

   Streamlight makes quality, reasonably-priced tactical flashlights and this one is no exception. It’s mounted to my home defense 12 gauge and performs perfectly for indoor or outdoor use. The streamlight rechargeable battery works great and it uses standard lithium 18650 batteries as well with no problem. I thought that they might be loose in the flashlight but the end-cap spring is long enough and strong enough that they work perfectly.

   I’ve owned/used many WML’s over the years (Streamlight, Surefire, Insight, Inforce, Olight, etc) and Streamlights have always provided the best value in a decently performing/rugged WML (I’ve yet to experience a Streamlight failure). With its 1,000 lumens & 50,000 candela, the HLX-Pro is approaching the limits of what can be accomplished with standard CR123’s (w/the option of using 18650’s for extended runtime). The attached photos compare the HL-X Pro w/the 800 lumen/66,000 candela Olight PL Turbo, notice the color difference between the two w/the Olight having a greenish tint. At the range, hotspot is centered on the 100yd target, the 50yd target is slightly to the right and the 200yd target visible in the distance. The HL-X Pro provides nearly as much throw but with more usable spill for situational awareness. Of course, we all want candela & throw, but we need situational awareness, and the HL-X Pro gives a good balance of spill & throw with enough candela for causing disorientation & overcoming photonic barriers. Typical Streamlight rugged mounting, including an M-Lok mount and the ability to substitute your favorite Scout mount as well (the Arisaka offset Scout mount is excellent). The Jack Cap allows for either manual switching or use of a remote switch. However, using a remote switch degrades the IPX rating from 7 to 4 if that’s important to you. Also, the manual switch and remote switch port can be rotated within the Jack Cap should you want them in a different location. The ability to use rechargeable 18650’s is a big plus, increasing runtime by 40+% over standard CR123’s. Yes, there are smaller & lighter WML’s, but they don’t provide equal lumens/candela. There are also similar/larger sized WML’s that provide more lumens/candela, but they’re much more expensive and usually can’t use standard CR123’s. For its performance, it’s hard to beat the HL-X Pro for the price. 5 stars from me! ETA: Despite what was posted in an earlier review, you can buy both the momentary-on and momentary/constant-on remote switches for the HL-X Pro separately. I know because I’ve purchased both for the HL-X Pro right here on streamlightoutlet.com.

   Ordered this light to finally have a WML.

   PROS
   Light is bright, decent throw
   Mounts nicely
   Rechargeable battery is a nice addition

   CONS
   Tape switch doesn’t come with anything to mount to picatinny rail or M-Lok slots
   Cheap screws, or at least the one that I have does. Allen head screw stripped in included canted mount, leaving me unable to remove it.

   I was excited when I got it and am disappointed in my experience with the product.

   Great solid quality weapons light at a fraction of the cost of a Surefire. Came with picatinny rail mount as well as MLOC mount.

   Best light I’ve ever used. Well worth price.
