5.0 out of 5 stars Streamlight Litebox: Now you're ready for that power outage, March 5, 2003

Make sure you have one of these in your hurricane or earthquake preparedness kit!

I would consider the Litebox as a "lantern" and not a flashlight. My definition of a lantern is that they are usually larger and can't fit into your pocket.

Although it's fairly large and heavy (due to the battery), you can't go wrong with this bad boy! Supposedly used by many fire departments, I can see why they use them: Heavy duty plastic casing, comfort handle, thin penetrating beam (although you can buy different lamp modules so you can have a broader beam), long run time. The head can also swivel up and down, so it can be a good work light.

Would I buy it again? Possibly. The limiting factor is the price. But this is from a quality manufacturer and is a quality product.

5.0 out of 5 stars hard core light, September 26, 2005

This a 'bad boy' light. It is quite bright, and lasts a long time on a charge. It is heavy, but you can set it down and adjust the swivel head. Yes, this light is used by many fire deptments. if you want a light that will last and last on a single charge this is the way to go. Sure it's over a hundred bucks, but this light is a serious tool, and will last for years and years. My battery just gave out, (after about 7 years) and I got a replacement for under $20. If you like high quality, hardcore stuff, this light will not let you down

I was a volunteer firefighter when I was younger and these were the lights that we had on the trucks. When I wanted a reliable wall-mounted rechargeable light I didn't hesitate to spend the extra cash for this light.

I have used it during 2 power outages in the last few years and the light output is incredible. It is so bright the I turned it on, aimed it at the ceiling and we used it as a primary light source in our house until the lights came back on. My neighbor looked in our house and asked how we got our lights back on and I had to explain that it was the Lightstream.
