Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Streamlight's Stinger is designed for use by law enforcement officers. As you might expect for a flashlight intended for this kind of use, it puts out a lot of light-the powerful xenon bi-pin bulb gives you up to 125 lumens. Plus, you can easily customize the beam from spot to flood via the focus mechanism. As an added bonus, the Stinger is rechargeable, and will give you up to one hour of continuous use from a single charge. The flashlight comes with a 120V AC charge cord, a 12V DC charge cord, two charger holders, and a spare bulb (which is stored onboard in the tail-cap). The Stinger is 7-3/8 inches long and weighs just 10 ounces.--Josh Dettweiler

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Light I own, October 3, 2005

This is the best flash light I own. I carry it on duty with me every shift I work dropped it I so many times I lost count never replaced the bulb or battery pack. Very cost effective. Awesome!

Ok Update I retired the light after 8 years of service. It still works and is now a house light. I still use it from time to time around the house for odd jobs. I could have continued to use it for duty but the allure of a new light was to much. I replaced it with a Stinger LED.

5.0 out of 5 stars Streamlight Stinger: Great rechargeable light, March 5, 2003

By 

HunkaBurninLove (Silicon Valley, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Streamlight 75014 Stinger Rechargeable Flashlight with Charger, Black (Tools & Home Improvement)

The Stinger is a great rechargeable light. It's small yet provides a bright amount of light for about an hour. With the adjustable lens, you can choose a floodlight or spotlight.

The Stinger comes with two charging cradles and an AC cord and DC cord so you can have one in your car and one at home. Therefore you can always have your Stinger charging to be used whenever you need it. The extra bulb in the tailcap is also nice.

+'s: small, bright, fits easy in your hands, adjustable beam, 1 hour run time, you can charge the battery without taking it out of the flashlight, charging cradles allow you to place the flashlight from the top or "snapped" in from the front.

-'s: long charge time unless you buy the "fast" charger.

If you need to constantly use a flashlight that is small but powerful (security guard, handyman, plumber), the Stinger will not disappoint you. The rechargeable battery will save you money in the long run.

Although expensive, it is good quality and I would buy this flashlight again. For a brighter light, check out the Stinger HP which is rated almost 3 times as bright.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product, January 27, 2006

I used to buy at least 2 to 3 compact flashlights per year and countless batteries. In my line of work, I may need light 2 feet away or up to 30 feet away. The streamlight is excellent for putting a beam of light on a distant object.
High initial cost but, you'll save it in batteries (and frustration) with standard flashlights. Standard flashlights (especially of the same size) don't even come close to the brightness. My 4 'D' cell Mag lite isn't as bright as this light.
Convenient car charger if you're on-the-go.
