This is my favorite toy! With 75,000 CP, it's light turning on the sun when you hit that button! You get the most blinding light on the market, and a nice, light-weight, narrow handle to club any idiot who gets squirrely on ya! Can't beat it for your big light! It almost makes me wish I worked Mids, instead of Eves... almost.
Excellent small and bright light, fits comfortablly in the "sap" pocket of the 5.11 torusers.
Great light, Turns night into day.
GREAT LIGHT USE IT FOR TRACKING,DOWNFALL BURN TIME OF THE BULB...AND SMALL BUTTON FOR SWITCH
This little flashlight has a lot going for it. I purchased these for standard carry by my officers. It is compact with a huge ability to deliver illumination where ever it's needed. Tactically is great too because, given the proper training, it can be used defensively but doesn't carry that "steel club" image. It's light-weight, compact, powerful and versitile. What more could you want in a piece of tactical gear?
Now, that's my friend. This flashlight has taken some beating always performed. get the lifetime warranty with it. We did and replaced anything needed as fast as same day if you walked into a streamlight dealer.
I like the Ultrastinger. It is a very bright and light flashlight. Easy to use when shooting in low light situations as well.
This flashlight is not durable, one drop and you're done.
I love it. it is like carrying around a piece of the sun
With 75,000 Candlelight Power and being fully rechargable with no memory loss it is the main flashlight of choice on Nightwatch. It comes with an AC/DC adaptor and is EXTREMELY bright and trustworthy. The only thing is that it doesn't have the weight that a mag does so... in extrememe circumstances may not make the best impact weapon (Dept. policies and use of force scales varying). Check it out if you are unhappy with your mag, great for Traffic Stops and any run including checking buildings/houses/warehouses. On a previous review they say one drop and you're done.... I have dropped mine on several occassions on bare concreat or roadway and it still works; however there is truth in that statement in that I have dropped it once before and had to replace the bulb. It is still worth it for it's brightness and size. Unlike LED flashlights the beam can also be changed accordingly. Highly Recommended. - From a consistent and trustworthy Nightwatch Officer
As others have commented, this is a seriously BRIGHT light. In a field test I found that a fully charged one was brighter than the squad mounted spotlight! I'd like to see a more "rugged" bulb. I have dropped mine a few times and run right about 50% of the time the bulb croaks... I use this as my primary light, but ALWAYS carry a backup light...just in case I drop it.
Very bright flashlight, lights up a large area, and good option with the adjustable beam. I have dropped this flashlight multiple times on cement and other hard surfaces and the light continues to work with no problems. I was bothered by the sound of the battery moving in the light, so I wrapped a sheet of paper around it and made the unit more solid, without any sounds from the battery. If you do carry this flashlight, remember to keep it charged. They are serious about the 1 hour run time. The light quickly dies out when the battery gets low, so probably not a bad idea to carry a backup.
Great light, nice size and weight. It has plenty of power in a small package. I would recomend it to anyone.
We have some of these at our department, They are great, puts out alot of light.
Excellent flashlight...............so bright shines right through window tint with no problem. Lasts for 1 1/2 hours if constantly on. Working 12 hrs shifts, always had power.
When I first started out in LE a huge light with 4 D-Cell batteries was the norm. Those old lights were used more as a baton than to light the sidewalk. Now the Streamlight Ultrastinger is on scene. Small enough to fit in your back pocket, yet bright enough to punch a hole in the sky with white light. The finest light on the market!
I have had this light for several years now, and i LOVE IT, It has never let me down, even when i dropped it off the side of the boat into 48' of brown salt water, Thankfully the dive team was there and recovered it for me, Diver said that the light was easy to find cause it was still lit up on the bottom of the river!!!!
Great flashlight,it always works when you need it.I have had mine for 9 years now,and have only changed the battery one time.
alot better than a mag-light in both weight and brightness but if you drop it you need a new bulb
This flashlight works great! Its super bright and has awesome range, its tough and re-chargable (either from a convetional wall socket or from your car). It's not big and bulky like the mag-light, but still stands up to anything. The only negative is that the bulbs can get pricy if you ever have to replace it.
I love this light, I could land a plane with it!!! Holds a charge forever, no problems for the 2 yrs I've had it. Highly recommend it for the price.
was issed one of these for a short time. good bright light but it broke very easily ( and not from hitting anyone with it) just being dropped here and there. bumped up..light element keep falling out. little to light weight for patrol work
This light is like turning on a stadium light, it has been my favorite light I have had for general duty purposes.
Great light. Might as well be a spot light...this sucker is bright. I wish it was small enough to carry on my duty belt. I did this for a while, and replaced it with the Stinger LED. I keep the Ultra Stinger in the car as a back up.
I love this light I never get 10-8 without it very bright light well worth the money.
I used the SL20XP at the department I previously worked for. They worked great and were lightwieght.
One of the best flash lights ive ever owned, and the charger works with stinger as well.
This is my go-to light for searches out doors... I take my LED DS Stinger out of the open holster and put it in my 511 TDU side pocket next to the extra AR mag. The Ultra slips right in where the LED was. I have a TLR-1 tac light on my Glock so I now have 3 sources of light and still have a hand free. Always carry one more source of light then you think you need at night.
I have had this flashlight for approximately one year. I am very impressed with the amount of light that the flahlight omits in darkness. About 8 months after using the light the on/off switch began to stick. Could not turn light on or off. Switch still sticks, but I am still using the light.
My now silver XL20 was finally replaced by the Ultrastinger. Great buy!
It's well worth the price. It's much brighter and lighter then a MAG Light. It's rechargable. It's extremely tough. It's a must have.
As just about everyone else has said, this is seriously bright. My squad is equipped with one, and it's def. my light of choice. I do carry a dept. issued SL20, but that's only in case the bulb breaks or burns out on the UltraStinger.
this is one bright flash light. our patrol cars have them. they are just as bright as our spot lights
Very bright. I've heard complaints from officers with larger hands about the "small" grip area for holding it. The narrow circumference of the grip does take a bit more to tuck it under your arm and hold it while keeping hands occupied.
Just got one and it turns night into day
This is a pretty awesome light, alot brighter then the average stream light. The first time I used it was in a truck yard pointing out a breech in the parimeter fence, the reaction I got from a few truckers standing by was " HOLY SH*T !! What is that?" I would have to say yet smaller then the average streamlight, you still have that security of being able to smack someone if ya gotta.
good light but expensive
Used this light for some time now. Great improvement over the bigger more bulkier full size lights with similar CP. Nice in the billy pocket and still not to big for belt carry.
This is my primary light, it works great, only issue I have is that you don't get much of a warning when it starts to die. It goes quickly. But great source of primary light, always, always, always carry a back up.
I use this as my primary light. Its very bright and the beam has great distance however it doesnt stay charged especially during the winter months.
I have carried this light for about 5 years now. It is bright and strong. I will take metal over plastic any day. I have used it to gain entry to vehicles and much more. I would recommend this light for all law enforcement professionals.
Amazing brightness, good battery life. Quick recharges with the Fast charger but expect overnight with the standard A/C Charger. Only complaint is that the lexan lens has a tendency to melt and deform with extended use.
Very bright!
Worked hoot shift for years. Love this light. You can almost sunburn your perp. With the correct training, can be utilized defensively. I carried one on my duty belt and another in my patrol unit for those long searches or foot pursuits. The bulb lasts a long time and is affordable if you do have to replace it. This light can take abuse and keep on performing.
Great light but the switch keeps breaking.
A bright light, but mechanically poor. The bulb burns out every couple months, switch breaks, charger malfunctions. Also, it is hard to run a dog track using one.
Very Nice!!!!!
I love the capability of the light. Maybe its just me, but it seems that it only works when it wants to. I have had to replace the bulb several times, and I have only had it about a year. However, when it does work, there isn't a brighter light on the market.
This light works great. My patrol vehicles rarely have working spot lights but this light works wonders on approach. The bulbs are expensive and need replacing often but I feel it is money well spent when I am lighting up everything around.
Best rechargable yet. Mine has withstood years of drops, and is more silver because of the wear. You can never have enough light, but this one does very well as a primary.
Small, durable, lightweight, rechargeable, 75,000 candlepower what more do you need.
