Streamlight Strion LED Rechargeable Flashlight At a Glance: Ultra-bright output via C4 LED technology Powered by rechargeable battery Includes AC and DC charge cords, 1 charger Up to 2 hours of run time (high, 160 lumens) Water resistant aircraft aluminum body Borofloat high temperature glass lens Limited lifetime warranty

This version of the Strion LED flashlight (model 74301) comes with both AC and DC charge cords and one charger/holder. It offers five modes of operation--high, medium, and low plus strobe--with the following light output ratings:

High: 10,000 candela (peak beam intensity), 160 lumens Medium: 5,000 candela (peak beam intensity), 80 lumens Low: 2,500 candela (peak beam intensity), 40 lumens

Its case is made of 6000 series machined aircraft aluminum with an anodized finish, and it has a lens made of high-temperature Borofloat glass. Other features include an anti-roll head, multi-function rubber push-button tactical tail switch, and a grooved barrel that adapts to a long gun mount. This flashlight's IPX4-rated design is water resistant. The Strion measures 5.9 inches long with a 0.95-inch barrel diameter and 1.25-inch head diameter, and it weighs 5.22 ounces with battery.

The clamp-style charge holder features a digital control circuit to prevent over-charging, and it fully recharges the flashlight's lithium-ion battery in 3 hours (indicated by a blinking LED indicator on the charge base). The battery is rechargeable up to 500 times.

Streamlight's C4 LED Technology

Basic LEDs provide a number of significant advantages, including significantly longer run time, an almost infinite life, and amazing durability since there is no glass or filament. A downside to basic LED bulbs is that they're not especially bright, but Streamlight has tackled that problem with its C4 LED technology.

Producing a brighter, more powerful, blinding light than any LED that's come before, the Streamlight-engineered reflector with C4 Photonic Crystal technology almost triples the brightness and creates an intense beam that pierces the darkness. With C4 LED technology, your Streamlight flashlight will approximate the range and brightness of a xenon bulb. You'll also enjoy the long-run times and indestructibility of an LED with an increased level of brightness that leaves basic LEDs in the dark.

Warranty

This flashlight is warranted to be free of defect for a lifetime of use. Streamlight will repair, replace or refund the purchase price, at its option, of any Streamlight product that does not work or that you manage to break for as long as you own it. This limited lifetime warranty excludes abuse, batteries, chargers, switches and electronics. Rechargeable batteries, chargers, switches, and electronics have a two-year limited warranty with proof of purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid upgrade from original Strion February 12, 2011

By D. Matheny TOP 100 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Length: 6:23 Mins

In this video I go over the basic operation of the Streamlight Strion LED light as well as doing some side-by-side comparisons with the previous model.

If you don't feel like watching the video, I'll sum it up by saying that I always liked the original Strion - but I like the LED model better. It has a brighter light with multiple brightness settings, longer battery life (even on the brightest setting), a strobe feature, an easier-to-operate power switch and an anti-roll head. Those features make for a very solid upgrade.

Some people will be bothered by the slightly larger length and the non-adjustable beam focus - but, for me, those aren't deal breakers at all.

Overall, I highly recommend this light! I believe it's one of the best compact rechargeables on the market at this point.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the light you want! March 8, 2010

Everyone knows how expensive the surefire batteries can be. If you are in the military like me, supply for some reason always seems to be out. This flashlight not only surpasses surefire lights in brightness and color (xenon white like high end cars) but it's rechargable! PLUS you can leave it on the charger and not worry about overcharging. I fly in the Army and this light is perfect for preflight in nontactical environments. EXTREMELY bright and well worth every penny. An absolute must for someone who wants a professional quality light that lasts. I would have given this 10 stars if it was an option!

5.0 out of 5 stars Should have bought a long time ago... April 1, 2010

It was a hard hit to spend this much for a small flashlight, but it's worth every penny. First of all, Amazon has the best price around. My co-workers recommended this light for how bright it is and how long the battery life is. One guy told me he's recharged his twice in the last year. The illumination is brilliant and it totally lights up a room. I have a large Streamlight also, but it is often bulky and hard to remember to grab when you need a light. This one fits right on your belt. Great price. Great product. I should have bought this years ago.
