This is my 4th Streamlight product, having owned a Scorpion two of the Pro-Tacs. I have always been pleased with Streamlight's quality and value compared to other high-end lights. I bought this light in hopes of eliminating some my dependence on the expensive CR123 batteries that power the other lights. This light is larger than the standard Pro-Tac HL, or I should say longer, as the head is actually smaller. The output is a bit higher, 850 lumens vs. 750 at peak, but the perceived output is not that different because the USB version's fixed throw is much wider that that of the standard HL. This is my only complaint, as I feel the throw is a little too broad/diffuse, and I wish it were abit tighter or had the ability to be focused. For the price, I don't think that would be too much to ask. I also felt the instructions that came with it were a bit spartan, especially regarding programming features. I still don't know if the LED charging indicator ever turns any color but red to show that it's plugged in/charging or if it cuts off once charged. These are minor quibbles, though, as the light more than suits its intended purpose, and does it well overall. Of course, in buying it on ebay, I found rechargeable CR123 batteries too, so I may be evaluating which light/setup I like/use the most.Read full review

Compared to the traditional bulb lights of the same size at Home Depot or Sherwin Williams this light doesn't add up in the brightness category. It lacks power. You would need two or three in a dark room to fully see if you wanted to get work done. Cheap price makes it a good buy.

I bought this flashlight because I wanted a small tactical light with great power and this C4 light was raved over in every review I could read. The light comes with a black cordura case which fits it like a glove and it is an excellent way to carry the light as I have found the light too small for ammo pouches such as Taco's or magnetic pouches. The light beam from the Streamlight is fantastic and works beyond my expectations throwing a usable halo up close and a long distance beam. The ProTac comes with warning papers concerning suggested batteries to use or not use and comes with Duracell's. Battery life is short in continual use but I wanted the power and carrying extra batteries is not a problem for me. I like the light well enough to give it as a Christmas gift and plan to buy another couple for myself as well. Great light and highly recommended.Read full review
I bought this for my wife after having my own BLACK ProTac for a while. It is blinding bright, easy to use and handle and light weight. This is my 'go to' light for everyday carry. Streamlight makes some of the finest, most affordable lights PERIOD!

Great product that is super powerful! Well built like all streamlight products. Definitely worth the little more it costs up front vs. the box full garbage lights that I bought before this. Worth the money. You will be glad you chose to spend your hard earned dollars here!
