This appears to be authentic Streamlight. Very powerful and bright. The last pic is in a completely dark room.

This works great for the olight i3e EOS flashlight

First of all, let me just say I ordered the TLR-3 Monday, November 23 (Thanksgiving week) around 8pm (after hours). The confirmation stated Friday as an approx delivery date, but I received my order on Wednesday morning on the 25th. One day shipping during a holiday week? Un-FREAKING-heard of! Thanks! MOUNTING: The TLR-3 fit perfectly on my Smith & Wesson SD9VE that I have as my nightstand weapon. The kit has several "adaptor plates" included in order to insure a snug fit on a plethora of various handguns. After a few moments of reading the instructions, unscrewing the mounting screw, and inserting the correct rail adaptor, the TLR-3 mounted firmly to my weapon in a matter of seconds. It was literally a +/-2 minute job, no exaggerations. FUNCTIONALITY: The light is SUPER bright for such a small, lightweight light. For operation, the TLR-3 has a momentary rocker switch that has a momentary and fixed "on" position. I have large hands, so the switch actuator arm is in the perfect position for index finger operation and is easy enough to turn on for momentary use. For the "fixed on", it takes a little more pressure to activate, but it's nothing that I wasn't used to in the first 5 minutes of getting familiar with the light. LIGHT BEAM: The center focal point of the TLR-3 is close to 3' at a distance of 18-20' from a backdrop, which in my circumstances is perfect, as I don't have a room in my house larger than 20'. Looking down the sights of my SD9VE with the light on, it appears as though the shot placement will be around 6-8" higher than the center of the focal point at 18-20'. I wouldn't advocate this without a lot of practice, but using the beam as a focal point for shot placement would definitely be something to try out on a range in low light conditions in case you migh happen to have close combat or "draw & discharge" situations. Definitely become familiar with TLR-3 usage as much as possible beforehand, especially since your life might be on the line. CONCLUSIIN: I would definitely recommend giving this little bad boy a chance. For home defense, I don't think you could do ANY better. Troy 46/M/TX

Great little flashlight. I used the clip to mount it to the shoulder of my ballistic vest. Works great as an auxilliary lamp for reading/writing in the dark (especially with the red light). The white light on the highest setting is also surprisingly bright, considering the lower lumen rating. Always nice to have a backup light in case the handheld dies in the middle of a stressful event. I own many Streamlight products and have put all of them through hell. None of them have ever broken or failed me in any way. I've only had this one for about a month, but I expect no less from this product. Please note, while I said the light does produce an impressive amount of light, it is significantly less than the larger handheld LEDs. Nonetheless, I would recommend this light to anyone needing a mountable light for any sort of tactical application.

Even though there’s a lifetime warranty on the light it is much faster to replace this yourself.

I was nervous ordering this flashlight because the product picture in my shopping cart was of a completely different flashlight than what I hoped I was ordering, so I wanted to assure everybody that this is indeed a blue stinger 350 lumen flashlight that comes with an extra battery and a charger with wall and car plug-in adapters. The blue color is not quite as bright as shown in the pictures, but still quite nice. The flashlight itself is amazing - this is definitely the most used, durable, bright, and convenient flashlight around my workplace. The price seems high until you ruin or break (or can't find batteries for) several other cheaper flashlights and realize this would have been the better first investment. It's definitely worth it. Also worth mentioning that when I ordered this, it told me it would get here in approximately 5-9 days. I'm not sure what magic happened, but it was sitting on my porch after only 3 days.

Does not come with charging cable. Why? I don’t know. Spent more on the charger than the flashlight itself.

The light is nice and bright. Blinding even. Fits in my pocket. Dropped it several times and didn’t break. Easy to know which light is which when it Comes to the buttons. It gets hot when on for a long time but not overheated.

I liked the first one so much that I ordered a second one. Very bright light. You can not go wrong with this flashlight. I used the metal rechargeable streamlight on patrol for years and never had any issues so I knew this light would fit my needs even if its not the metal body version. Go ahead and buy one you wont be disappointed.

Worth every dollar!

I really wanted to like this it’s a good idea, but poor execution. To start the “key” is way thicker that even any key fobs I carry with me and second just after my return window expired the back of the case that holds the guts just fell off. Never dropped it once just grabbed the keys and the back was gone luckily I found it by retracing my steps. Will probably attempt glueing it as shipping for a warranty claim would be almost the same price as just buying another. Really disappointed in streamlight so many other stellar products this one just didn’t hit the bar.

This thing is bright! Long battery life and heavy duty construction.

Used only a handful of times and the bracket that holds the strap to light broke. After calling customer service i have to send it back in. Very irritating for a item that broke so quickly. Hardly worth bothering to send back, looking for a better product to replace it.

I wanted a small battery flashlight as a backup to my other rechargeable FL. Good fit in my hand. Bright flashlight. Fits my cap. I can tell additional weight on the cap. Easy to use Butt Switch. Many lights like this have the dimming option built into the switch. I had to read the instructions on how to use the TEN-Tap program function. This program requires timed Click to set the light options. I’m not fond of that. But overall I like this light.

I'm a nurse and I always keep a keychain flashlight on my name badge. My old one started to crap out on me. So I bought this and not only is it way smaller but also way brighter than my old one. It literally is such a powerful light given the fact that this thing is super tiny, I was not expecting it. I absolutely love it and have showed it off to everyone at work and they all want one too! Going to buy more to keep around the house.
