I don’t think I’ve owned a brighter one. I love that it’s rechargeable. The kids won’t burn through batteries playing with it. I’ve appreciated having the three different modes as well. The handle works fine, and even though it’s a bit small, I like that my little ones can carry it without any trouble. It looks and feels heavy duty. There is an o-ring on the battery compartment to keep water out and a cover over the charging port. I didn’t disassemble it any further. I also didn’t submerge or spray it, so I can’t say whether it is waterproof. I’m happy with this flashlight for my particular uses.” – Amazon’s Customer Review.

It’s incredibly bright. So bright I would not recommend pointing it at people’s eyes or looking into it. My only recommendation would spend some extra money somewhere and buy a rechargeable 18650 battery. Because with three AAA batteries, It stays bright for about 10-20 seconds and goes dim fast! But if you use an 18650 battery the thing stays super bright always for several minutes. Buy this if you want a bright well-made flashlight .” – Amazon’s Customer Review.

“I shopped for what seemed like forever to find the perfect all season and versatile spotlight; the Stanley SL10LEDS did not disappoint. I live in a rural area where seeing across a field 250 yards into the treeline is important. While being able to use at a long distance was critical, as important was the ability to manoeuvre a seamlessly light in weight for easy one-handed operation. This one did it all. I could not be happier. It even came with a detachable red lens. The body of this light is made of a hard, durable ABS plastic, the fold out the clip on top for use as a prop id made of metal (can even be used as a weapon if you find the need), The two brightness levels are controlled by the trigger. Pull the trigger once for bright, pull again to dim, and again to turn off. As for the battery, It seems great also. I have not charged it since the initial charge and have probably used it for a total of 3-4 hours in the past couple weeks off and on, and it is still as bright as the first time I turned it on. Again, I am glad I got this one from the several I was evaluating. It does not disappoint.” – Amazon’s Customer Review.

If you want to travel with it you must carry the charger with it – which is just about as big as the flashlight. And what I need is something that already works with a simple micro USB charging cable. So instead of traveling with it – I will keep it on a nightstand where it can be charged when it runs down, because I travel lean and mean and don’t have room to carry yet another charging system.” – Amazon’s Customer Review.

“Well, just received the flashlight today. I am going to rate this review as 4 out of 5 stars because this being an initial review. Product came on time, no defects. Pretty excited, because I have a stream light (weapon light) on my 1911 as well. I will say that stream light put the “M” in micro on this one. Small, but construction looks and feels solid. Yes, this is a non-adjustable light, but the LED and lumen on this light make up for it. Did a small in-house room clear and quite frankly the light does just as a good job as my Surefire G2! This light retains the widely used thumb switch on the end of the light. One clicks for continuous light, slight press for select lighting.
This light could be used with a pistol combo (concealed carry), but hand size will determine overall effectiveness. Otherwise, this is a great light for in the car, key chain (lanyard included), tool box, hunting jacket, bedside light as well. The only CON I felt towards this light was the price, but I think most went to the name. This light has a good/stable pocket clip that fits nicely in coat pockets, pants of any kind. Lanyard maybe too much for regular usage, but it may work better in low light situations during hunting season.” – Amazon’s Customer Review.

“After 62 reviews for this flashlight, it sure did not need another. But I feel very strongly that this is important. If you or someone you care about has hand mobility issues or if lifting any weight is difficult or close to impossible, then THIS IS FOR YOU. Just received this today & I have to tell you I can not believe the brightness of the light & the sheer “weightlessness” of it (I have big problems with that). I can get a good grip on this flashlight because of the black rubber-like sides. I guess one reason for the “lightness” is that it only takes 3 AA batteries; a person my age only remembers flashlights that take several C or D cell, which suddenly become massive when you have physical issues. Also, old flashlights had a button that would slide back & forth to turn on & off. If it got knocked around in a drawer, the button could push to the on position & you’d never know till you needed that flashlight that it went dead. No chance of that is happening with this one; this has an easy to push on/off button. I am buying another right now. Buy it; I swear it’s GREAT!” – Amazon’s Customer Review.
