Streamlight 66118 Stylus Pro 100-Lumen LED Pen Light with Holster - Compact Black Flashlight for Everyday Carry, Tactical Use, Inspection & Emergency Situations

This is my all time favorite flashlight that I grab 90% of the time, I like to keep it in my glove box so I always know where it is as it could be fairly easy to misplace because it is so small, which is a downside but also the biggest plus to me, so as long as you keep tabs on it you will love this thing. It has been very durable, I have had this for 6 years and dropped it a lot and minus a few scuffs it looks as good as new and works just as well as when I got it out of the box. The battery life has been great, I also love being able to push the button down part way without clicking to quickly look at something without forgetting to turn it off. If I were to ever lose it I would pick another one up in a heartbeat.I am finally writing a review on this little workhorse as I am getting ready to order a 3rd one to keep in my suv. These little lights work great. They work better than any large flashlight that I own. I keep one in the kitchen and one in my nightstand. We even took one to Costa Rica and proved invaluable during a rainstorm when we had to walk to our rental in the rain at night. Let our hvac guy use one to see in our attic, he was actually impressed, have taken one for evening walks, and have used for power outages. Kinda pricey, but we have had our 1st one since 2018.I bought another one after using one that was given to me by a customer about two years ago. I love this light, it is perfect when I'm working inside CNC machines, inspecting inserts for wear, looking at work holding components, etc. I probably shouldn't, but I often hold it in my mouth when both hands are needed.It will run for quite some time on two AAA batteries, I generally always get a few months out of them using it at work. I recently put USB rechargeable batteries in it. I prefer that over a built-in battery, if the rechargeables fail I can just stick regular AAA back in it that I can find everywhere.The little rubber boot on the back finally crumbled after two years of very frequent use. Just ordered a replacement on Amazon for $5.16. Looks like every part can be replaced, another plus on this light.This pen light is super durable and we'll put together for an amazing price. It may not have all the extra features some tactical lights offer, but it blasts VERY bright for its slim size. The size is what I was after as it is actually slim enough to fit in my sleeve pen holder pocket, which makes the pen virtually invisible and distraction free while on my person. It also makes it super convenient and easy to find when I'm in a dark area. Highly recommend!I love stream light products. I've never had a bad one. Now that I have taken a new job which requires me to wear street clothes instead of an officer's uniform, it was important to have a smaller light that still got the job done. This little light is attractive, light, sturdy, but still as bright as heck! Heck! You cannot beat the price for the quality of this tool. I am sold. I purchased a second one as backup. In my line of work, when you need a light, you need a light. Now I have something I can carry with me all the time in my slacks that provides sufficient light when I need it.It’s a pretty bright flashlight for its size that I used for work looking into engine bays when I can’t lug around a huge flashlight. Usually got the job done. It clipped onto my shirt nicely. It’s small so it’s not going to illuminate everything, but I knew that from the start. I’ve dropped it a good amount of times. It hasn’t died on me yet. Definitely worth a try.Great construction. I have dropped several times and still works. Takes normal batteries which is why I got it.Great light to have on you at all times. It's not super bright. It's bright enough. Battery life is good. If it was brighter then battery life would suffer. Love that I can keep a backup set of common AAA batteries around and always good to go. If you lose this in your daily use it doesn't hurt the wallet to replace worth it there is a similar clone at Walmart for 1.50. I need time to tell if it's 18.50 superiorI wanted a cheap, lightweight flashlight to throw in with the various cables I keep in the laptop bag. This is never going to illuminate the beach, but it'll be great for anythign indoors, looking for something in the car park (when you don't want to be waiving your £500+ phone around as a light).I spent a while traversing the Reddit EDC and Flashlight subs and this looked about right. Remembering this is a £20 flashlight and not a £200+ Surefire, it does the job spot on.Weight was an important factor, and this comes in at 25g without batteries (amazon says 98g, but that must include packaging), add some alkalines to that and it is 48g. Could probably get it a little lighter with some energizer lithium aaa batteries.Brightness: 3/5 (don't let that put you off)Weight: 5/5 (25g without batteries)Value: 5/5 (it's <£20, I think I also had a £5 promo voucher so it cost me about £15 all in)Want the best? Look for a Surefire, but I'm not going to worry about losing or dropping this!The Streamlight Stylus Pro makes an ideal EDC (every day carry) light. There are a lot of similar pen lights with three brightness settings which do have their place, but for EDC i found that most of them on the brightest setting have a limited run time of under an hour and on the middle setting were not bright enough. This light however has one setting but offers 100 lumens of light for eight hours. The push button tail switch also has optional momentary operation which means you push it for light and release for off, rather than clicking it on and clicking off.It's pretty good. Good beam and well made.For the price I would have liked a zoomable focus, but the switch! Oh my. Quite sensitive on the "half press" which is good, but to fully switch on? It's really hard to depress! Like stupidly hard. Given the quality, I don't see it softening up either.But everything else is really quite good.One of the best purchases I have made in a long time. It is durable and sturdy. Easy to use and bright. Compact too. Perfect for a late working postperson in the winter. Well worth the money.Nice slim penlight. Brightness is good, and good option for a light to keep about you. No light level controls (something that is common these days) and now in performance terms superseded by other penlights with stronger and variable LED
