As advertised. Military Gear. Hard to go wrong. I have two. One on headband. One to switch between rail on AK and NGV mount on Ballistic Helmet. Not super bright. I have an 800 lumen Nightstick for That. (Cop lite) I got it for the Red/Blue tactical lights and to have a less bright light. 4 levels of bright/dim. A cop light can also get one shot. Center Mast on light or laser usually does the trick. Yes, I Did sharpie my Helmet Front Center mount Black.

For the price, this is great. Very compact. Easy to find a holster to accommodate it. Installs easily. The beam is very bright in the center, much dimmer on the edges, of course, but it casts a wider beam than expected. For being so small and light it’s a great light.

THIS FLASHLIGHT IS GREAT. LOVED THE SWITCH. LOVE THE EASY 3 MODE SETTINGS. OFF. ON 300. PUSH FORWARD THRO 1000. POCKET CLIP IS GREAT. IT CAN EVEN SWITCH SIDES. CHARGING PORT IS OKAY. BUY A USB C PORT PLUG AND YOU WILL BE FINE. WHAT I DIDN'T LOVE IS THE FACT THAT I USED IT TWO WEEKS IN THE FIELD AND THE LIGHT GAVE UP. MY JOB REQUIRES ME TO GET MUDDY AND DIRTY. WHETHER IT BE A WATER MAIN BREAK OR JUST OR DIGGING A HOLE, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING. NOW I KNOW MOST OF YOU WILL NOT BE REQUIRED TO JUMP IN A 4 FOOT PUDDLE OF WATER SO IF THAT IS NOT IN YOUR JOB DESCRIPTION, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. BUT, IF YOU DO ANY KIND OF PHYSICAL LABOR. THIS IS FOR YOU. I GAVE IT 4 STARS CAUSE IT IS A GREAT FLASHLIGHT. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS WILL SERVE YOU WELL AND YOU PROBABLY WON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. IF YOU WORK IN AN OFFICE OR JUST EDC IT. BUT IF YOU WORK WITH GRIME AND GRIT, WELL I'M NOT TO SURE YOU SHOULD GET IT. I KNOW THIS FLASHLIGHT IS NOT CLAIMING TO BE A SUREFIRE OR MODLITE. BUT BEING ABLE TO BE USED AFTER BEING SUBMERGED IN SOME MURKY WATER IS A MUST FOR ME.THE IPX7 RATING IS OKAY. I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE WATER PROOFING. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IF YOU GET ANY LITTLE TINY PARTICULATE IN BETWEEN THE BACK OF THE ROTATING SWITCH AND THE BODY. GOOD LUCK. I HAD TO HAMMER THE BUTTON OUT TO GET IT TO TURN ON AND THEN WHEN I WAS ABLE TO DO THAT THE BUTTON WAS JAMMED ON. I CLEANED IT WITH A SMALL GUN BRUSH THE DAY AFTER AND WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW. NOW WHEN I WOULD SHUT IT OFF. THE LIGHT STAYED ON IN MY POCKET. TO ME IT'S A FATAL FLAW FOR HOW MUCH THIS COST. God FORBID YOU ARE IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU NEED TO DEPEND ON THIS FLASHLIGHT AND, OOPS, THERE YOU GO. THE BUTTON IS JAMMED CAUSE YOU HAD TO ROLL IN THE DIRT A LITTLE EARLIER. TAKE THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT. YOU MAY HAVE A BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LIGHT THAN I HAVE. YOU MAY GO ON A NICE STROLL WITH IT, TAKE IT OUT TO DINNER, TO THE MOVIES. BUT AS FOR ME, IT IS GETTING RETURNED. COME ON STREAMLIGHT. DO JUST A PINCH BETTER.

Excellent product, easy replacement. Fit my flashlight 🔦 couldn't be happier with it.

So far this light is pretty bright for being a personal light. It’s really lightweight. The only downside is when I went to go put on my hardhat it pulls my hair. I have to looking into getting a welding cap. Wish it had a usb-c, so it can be easier to charge. I would recommend.

Great flashlight. Worth every penny

Description clearly states 10 led ,but actual module only has 7. Product not as described.

I’ve carried this light for approximately a year now. I used it almost every day. Initially I purchased it while working as a jailer, and found it was easy to carry, the two brightness settings helped with not blinding people as I checked doors, or turn up the intensity when needed. Once I moved to patrol I went to night shift, and usually used this for vehicle stops or walking around inside a dark room or residence. The throw isn’t very far. Anything past 10 yards and you’ll need to bump up to a stronger light if you need to see details like hands clearly. It doesn’t do great at cutting through photonic barriers, so when it comes to tinted glass or privacy glass this isn’t your guy. But I find it useful when I’m at a car side trying to read an ID, insurance, or write a citation. It doesn’t blind the person sitting in the car as I stand with the light over them, but if something changes and I need to see in the car quickly I can bump the light to high power. The way it came in the box was set up for a right hand carry. I swapped the clip with so it is on the same side as the switch. This makes it easy to pull out of my left pocket and immediately have my thumb in the right spot. This is think enough to conceal in your hand, but also hold in place while shooting if you don’t have a weapon light on a pistol. Again, the throw isn’t ideal, but it fits in a pinch. I like that the switch has a charging indicator built in. Plug it in, light turns red. Fully charged, light turns green. If you use it for just every day stuff, I can go a week or two without charging it and noticing it dimming. It doesn’t get to dim, but the high power setting goes away. It last me all through one 12 hour shift of pretty regular use, but I just slap it on a charger when I get home in the morning and it’s ready the next night. The only time I’ve seen this light actually drain the battery and die I was on a crime scene and stuck it in a cone turned on to help illuminate the cone so cars could see it. It stayed like that for probably an hour. I had used it prior to that call, and for the rest of the investigation for afew hours, so it lasted quite some time. My biggest gripe is probably that the USB-C port is on top and faces up. I wouldn’t be as concerned about it if had a cover on it. It’s completely exposed to the elements. The coating on the light is great. Down in Texas, the heat and sweat from being in a pocket hasn’t done to much wear to the coating, just on the edges which is to be expected. Even when the light is on for an extended amount of time, it’s not hot. The body can get alittle warm, but never unbearable. For $100ish bucks, it’s definitely worth it’s price. It’s not really designed to be a far out light, instead more of small jobs. If I lost today I’d be ordering another asap. Not only do I recommend to a friend, I’ve given a couple as gifts to friends.

I have ordered a couple of these Stylus rubber end caps and they work perfectly. I have had to replace them twice on my old Stylus -Pro and that is not bad when I consider that I purchased this flashlight on 12-13-2013 and this little flashlight has done an amazing job lighting up the various tasks that need more light to repair, et. This little flashlight is just as important to my daily tasks as my Leatherman Super Tool 300. I have had three of the Leatherman Super Tool 300's and I use them everyday just like the Stylus Pro. I do recommend anyone who is looking for the correct replacement switch cap for the Stylus Pro, very pleased with the products they offer.

I am a flashlight-aholic. I always carry one on me and possibly two of them. And at work (Patrol Officer) it’s no different. I have in the past been more susceptible to going against the norm and buying gear that’s not what everyone else wears or uses. And that’s what I have done in the past with flashlights. But I really needed a light that had characteristic specific for patrol work. And this characteristics are very unique and hard to find all together in a single package. Afte researching for weeks or months I finally decided to pull the trigger on trying the latest Streamlight Stinger 2020 out. 90% of the patrol officers on The graveyard shift use some type of Streamlight or Surefire. I’ve always loved surefire but not enough to justify spend $400-$700 on one. Not happening. I ended up getting my Stinger 2020 and after my first shift wirh it I fell in love with the thing. It’s bigger than any other light I’ve owned or used and I actually love it. Its shape, weight, and it POWER! Oh boy! The Power is phenomenal. And the lowest setting it perfect for normal tasks while the length is perfect to tuck under and arm pit while wearing a vest carrier to free up your hands while writing a report or searching your pockets. I give this light a 9.5/10. I would give it a 10/10 if there were actually any options in the form of holsters for this damn light. It’s shape makes it unique and won’t fit your universal light ring holsters. A custom kydex would be perfect but I’m can’t find one anywhere. What would be even cooler is if this holster was able to also charge the light while it was inside it. Now that’s a 11/10 stars just waiting.

I like this new helmet light. It's not like the surefire one that mounts to the side and you can never see what your doing until you turn to the side. This light does everything i need it to. My only complaint that I may have is the NVG mount is plastic and it may in the future if struck hard enough break, the pictures make it out to be painted metal, so just keep your NVG mount stored until ready to use.

This item arrived missing parts. Fortunately it has the key needed for a G43x. However I will never be able to use this light on any of the other “devices” it would normally fit. Because I purchased this just for a G43x I will be keeping it, however I’m salty that it arrived opened and missing parts. I did get lucky, but I don’t like the fact that I didn’t get all the pieces I was owed. The stream light is awesome and works well, but I would not recommend ordering from this seller- they will send you returned items in place of “new” items.

I initially picked this light to try the somewhat controversial sliding port cover. The port cover is held in place by two possibly silicone O-rings (one is under the ring). Although useful, somehow have found this cover to slide out of place in use. I oiled the O-rings with PTFE oil to protect them from wear, and to promote water resistance. I found that if it sits for several minutes it settles and becomes harder to pull back accidentally, though some grip styles may inadvertently pull it back regardless. These orange-red o-rings may be silicone, so avoid silicone oil or grease. I noticed the tumbled aluminum can feel a bit slippery at times, but I haven’t dropped it yet as the shape helps it stay in hand. It feels heavy, and you can feel the presence in a pocket. The shape didn’t create large pressure spots on my leg even with my tight fitting pants like some lights have, but it was definitely noticeable, still not exactly a pocket light due to size and weight. The coating on the light is Type II Hard anodized, which is adequate, but falls short of some brands that have used type III Hard anodizing. In experience this translates to more wear. Scuffs from cement under a car, or riding next to gear like a knife will more easily show, yet can chip less due to being thinner and slightly more flexible. The tail cap is thick, which should handle drops well, and I appreciate the three protruding scallops on the back, as I broke a switch from a small floor on linoleum in the past. This will protect it from drops, but could hinder quick button presses. The light can tail stand very well, in fact I was able to charge it with a thick cord while it was tail standing. The grippy silicone boot collects pocket lint and dirt but should be rather wear resistant. When pressure is applied to the switch you can use momentary mode for quick use. When depressed fully the click is heavy feeling and audible from across the room, but is muffled enough to not be an issue in most uses. I tested the light in a foot of water for an hour and it seemed fine, but before I did this I lubed the dry orings. With the sliding cover I would hesitate to bring this underwater without care. For example, I wouldn’t let my child play with it in a pool like I have some lights. I cannot say how durable this light is, but it seems quite thick. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this for a mechanic for every day use. The battery is the proprietary SL-B50, which can be purchased on streamlightoutlet.com as a spare. I did buy the spare because it can take 5.5 to 6 hours to charge. Slower charging can aid in overall life and safety of the battery, but can be a pain when you need your light. The best part is you can charge the drained battery in a pack with a portable battery bank. At the most it pulled just under 5 watts when I charged it, perfect for plugging into a computer or even slow charging car USB ports. Streamlight doesn’t disclose what cell they use under the wrapper but they have a history of using quality cells such as Panasonic, Sanyo (owned by Panasonic), and Samsung. When inserting the battery you should rotate it so it fall into place if it is not mostly flush with the lip of the battery tube. Once In place, it will come into contact with two spring loaded bullet caps at the bottom (pictured). Spring loaded front and back is ideal to prevent battery damage from drops. I have personally crushed the end of a battery from a hard drop on concrete so it’s appreciated. The light can be partly disassembled which will show an aluminum reflector and white plastic (not pictured) to help center the led. You can remove the plastic piece to show a MCPCB board which is standard aluminum, with standard thermal paste (not thermal glue) meaning that with a bit of googling one could swap out the led and board with a better led. The led itself seems like a clone of the Cree XHP50/XHP50.2 or the luminous SST-70. I believe they were going for lumen per dollar vs nice tint. The beam on a white wall has noticeable tint shift, meaning the center is a cold blue white and turns to greenish hue and to a white. Not exactly ideal. In real world use this didn’t matter too much, but when I compared it to a light with good tint and high color rendering (being able to show colors accurately) it was noticeable, but otherwise won’t hinder every day use much I’m in being honest. It makes light. The ten tap is very useful. I set it in low, medium, High mode to prevent accidental melted holes in my pack. Though with a small twist of the tail cap you can lock out the light, meaning it won’t turn on even if the button is depressed. This is a good safety feature for storage as it can get hot, as all powerful lights do, but this can slow activation of the light. Would I purchase again? Yes, but it has room for improvement.

Only been a couple of months but this flashlight is great. I have not had the chance to see how long the battery last (I charge it every time I get off work). It comes with a holster, it’s flimsy and I was not confident it would last so I’m just gonna get a custom belt pouch. Size of the throw is pretty good. If you have the flashlight on for more than 30 seconds, it does get hot, and the longer you have it on, the hotter it gets.

The TLR-6 is the first modification I made to my Springfield XD9 4" and M&P Shield 9mm, and it almost looks like a factory add-on. Installation: there are 3 hex screws that clamp the left and right housing to the light & laser cartridge assembly. Using the included hex wrench, remove the 3 screws, take off the outer shell/housing where you had accessed the screws, then rest the firearm into the remaining half of the housing. Press firmly until the firearm's trigger guard is tightly seated into the housing, then take the other half of the housing and firmly press it into place and reinstall the 3 hex screws. Lastly, unsnap the latch on the bottom of the TLR-6 to access the battery compartment and install the 2 included 1/3N size batteries (positive side facing the latch); Streamlight only recommends Duracell or Energizer brand batteries. Operation: the TLR-6 has 3 settings: laser only, light only, then laser + light. These settings can be cycled by pressing both the left and right side buttons simultaneously. Pressing only one of these side buttons will toggle on/off the last chosen setting. The laser can be calibrated by using the included hex wrench on the screw openings on the bottom (horizontal/wind adjustment) and left (vertical/elevation adjustment) of the TLR-6. To zero/calibrate the laser sight, I went to an indoor shooting range and placed my target at about 10 feet. I then adjusted the laser to be roughly on point with the iron sight on that same target, then adjusted the elevation screw depending on high/low my bullet strikes actually landed. Worth noting that the distance you use to zero the laser will determine how high/low your bullets will strike. If you shoot at a distance less than your zero range, the bullet will strike high and vice versa for shooting at a distance greater than your zero range. Overall I'm very happy with the TLR-6. It has a near matching factory finish when compared to my XD9, and it was relatively easy to operate. My only feedback would be to engineer a tool-less installation design and/or one that doesn't require a total disassembly of the shell housings from the laser/light cartridge to install.
