Streamlight flashlights are one of the leading manufactures of flashlights for law enforcement, fire, military, and civilians. Streamlight offers a wide variety of flashlights and a high level of customer satisfaction. Streamlight flashlights are very durable and have proven to be a great flashlight.

I have had the Streamlight UltraStinger for 5 years. I currently own two of them because I like it so much. The Streamlight UltraStinger is the brightest Streamlight flashlight available. It offers about 75,000 candlepower. The UltraStinger has a 30 hour life xenon-halogen gas filled bi-pin bulb. The flashlight has a five cell 6V nickel-cadmium battery. It is 11.75" in length and weighs a mere 1.1 pounds.

The UltraStinger is my favorite flashlight that I have owned. I like the size of the flashlight, especially the skinniness of it. The flashlight can easily be stored underneath my leg while I am driving. The brightness of the light is nice. Whenever I turn the light on, I know that I am going to light the entire area up.

As much as I love the Streamlight UltraStinger, I have two things that I dislike about it. Because of the size of the flashlight, the battery goes dead after one hour of continuous use. I typically can use it for one for shift and then it needs to be recharged. That is the reason why I always carry two of them. I keep one of them on my duty belt and one in my 5.11 Tactical Patrol Ready gear bag. As a result of the battery dieing often, I carry a fast charger in the car with me at all times. The charger plugs into my power adapter outlet and allows me to charge the flashlight during my shift if it goes dead prior to the end of my shift. The other thing I dislike about the flashlight is that the bulb needs to be replaced every 6 months or so. This is really only an inconvenience. The bulb only costs about $5.00.

As like all other Streamlight flashlights, the UltraStinger has a great warranty. Recently my lens cracked and I took it to my local retailer and they fixed it on the spot for no charge.

The Streamlight UltraStinger is a great flashlight. I will continue to use this flashlight and highly recommend it.
