   性能については先達のレビュアーの皆さんが語り尽くしていると思うので、一番知りたいであろう事を。

   届くのは90x(18650対応でHIが500ルーメンの後期型)です。

   付属電池はcr123a×2本なので、手持ちに18650のストックがある方、バッテリー運用はしない方向け。

   The description is not correct, this is NOT a 170 Lumen flashlight. The documentation received says it’s a 500/85. I’m not displeased with this, but the seller seems to have made a typo and I thought folks might appreciate knowing.

   My only complaint is that, unlike my ProTac 2L-X, I can’t change the default brightness on this to the 85 Lumen setting. Hitting the button twice isn’t that big a deal, but I’d love to be able to use this as a ambient light first and bright spot second. Otherwise, this appears to have all the hallmarks of a quality light that I’ve come to expect from this manufacturer.

   Nice light and lite for seem reason yellow was substantial cheaper than black.
   

6. Charles C Verified Buyer – 6 October 2024

   I wanted to post a review because I was getting conflicting information about what kind of batteries this flashlight can take. A normal brandless 18650 with a button top will fit and power this flashlight (see photos). But there appears to be variation in diameter between batteries. Your mileage may vary. I saw similar reviews about rechargeable Li-ion batteries not fitting on the SL-B26 product page. So my thinking is that the Streamlight USB rechargeable 18650 does not fit some of their products (the Polytac 90X for instance). It’s like 0.5mm oversize. I don’t have one in hand to personally confirm this.

   Favorite light of all time. I have two Streamlight Polytac 90X ‘s. I use the Streamlight rechargeable batteries. Love the light quality and convenience with the 90 degree lense and pocket and gear clip.
   Highly recommend!!

   Awesome light. Small and compact. Very bright for its size.

    This is by far the brightest little flashlight I’ve ever owned. Veteran and firefighter, so flashlights have mattered in every career in my life. This flashlight is one of the smallest, but brightest I’ve ever seen. Perfect attached concept to gear, value for the money is overwhelming. It doesn’t weight hardly anything. I’ve dropped it from a 3rd story training tower and nothing happened to it at all. Perfect idea for your person in need of a good light.

    Have had this light for several months and absolutely loved it. I had recently purchased a helmet light but when I switched to a city department the rookie helmet wouldn’t keep that light on it so I switched to this and will continue to use it. I place it on the front radio loop, hanging by the carabiner attachment that is already on the light. This allows for use just below my head so great for visibility. Also if needed I can quickly take the light off my gear and use it as a handheld flashlight. Another bonus over the helmet light. Brightness is very effective and brighter than the can lights that come off the rig by a long shot.
    Only con is that the battery doesn’t last great and when it dies…it does it quickly with no indication you’re running low. I just keep an extra battery in my gear bag so haven’t had any issues with that, just something to keep in mind.
    Overall a great buy!

    I bought this for use as one of my duty lights a good while back now, I really like this light. I’m impressed with its durability. This has lived on my radio strap it’s whole life and has taken multiple hard hits, has seen some heat and hasn’t failed me yet. The beam is good and puts off good light, especially for a smaller light. Battery life is fairly good but that’s all on how much you run the light, I go through a good bit of batteries but I use it a lot so that’s expected. I like the power button being in the top and the brightness is easily adjustable with a couple taps. I recommend this light all day.

    It’s bright for only 170 lumens, beam reaches just as far as my 500 lumen strion hl, I jb weld a magnetic base to the bottom, and using a 17670 battery which gives longer run time, never had so much use out of a flashlight being a mechanic and under the hood or vehicle most of the time, both pocket and c clip on the back work well also, I would recommend to anyone especially for a good EDC. Also I lubed the threads and got oil on the rubber o ring and it expanded so watch out for that.

    Streamlight 88831 PolyTac 90 LED Right Angle Polymer Flashlight, Yellow – 170 Lumens, Good small compact light I attached it to my coast guard approved life vest which needs to be worn when Fishing in salt water from a boat and this light is a perfect fit for the purpose intended. Batteries are OK and not just Streamline ones they’re all about the same
