Streamlight 75711 Stinger C4 LED Rechargeable Flashlight - 425 Lumens, NiCad Battery & 120V AC Charger Included (Black) | Perfect for Law Enforcement, Security, and Emergency Use

If you’re here searching for a flash light for husband or garage or even an extra for the house, these are very durable! Also rechargeable! So look no further, buy this todayHad these all the way back from the halogen bulb with the back up bulb stored in the tail cap. Obviously LED is the way now, but the classic Streamlight lives on as powerful as ever. It’s what you’ve come to expect with what I believe is HANDS DOWN the best duty or every day light on the market. It’s not in particularly cheap.. but you buy once. You cry once, don’t waste your time with o lights and those 10 pack value deal lights. I can attest to the fact that I promise you this light will outlive you, and even if something happens. I can also attest to the quality of Streamlights service department. Send them your product, and no Questions asked they will fix it up provided the rare circumstance of a failure takes place. I don’t often write reviews, but this item is worth my time to do my best in getting my point across that you won’t be sorry.If you use the brightest setting it runs down quicker. It works great for walking the dog at night. I can see a good distance. The dimmer settings get more battery life, but you sacrifice distance visibility.I needed a new flashlight for work and wanted to move away from my full size streamlight rechargeable. I owned a stinger 8 or so years ago but it had the xenon bulb and when the battery went bad I never replaced it. So this time I wanted to go with LED as the bulbs basically last forever and the xenon bulbs are expensive. All that said I wanted a good price and selection so I went to amazon. Unfortunately things got confusing from there. Amazon had so many stinger products with model numbers that had no corresponding reference on the Streamlight website so for my review instead of focusing on the light, lumens, body comp, etc, which had been covered before, I wanted to try to clear up the product numbers to make buying easier if you have already decided to buy a Stinger. (I spent hours trying to figure out what the model number meant because the pictures were basically worthless when deciding between certain models as well as included accessories)Basically what I determined is that the beginning three numbers tell what kind of light it is. 757 is the Stinger LED as shown on the Streamlight website. 758 is the Stinger DS LED and 75? anything else is the standard Stinger xenon bulb.The only anomaly is the DS HP, which follows no rhyme or reason but is easily distinguishable because of it's large lamp portion.So the difference?The Stinger LED has one on/off switch on the handle and an rubber anti-roll ring that can be placed on the flashlightThe Stinger LED DS had two fully functional on/off switches one on the body and one on the end. The light output is basically the same on both from what I can tell as are all other features.The Stinger LED HP had that large bulging portion that according to Steamlight gives it a long range targeting beam. Has only one on/off switchThe classic stinger has the xenon bulb.All Stingers that I know of will charge with the battery in the flashlight in the charger. Other accessories are available of with the one that caused me the most confusion being the "Piggyback" holder. It is basically an additional holder for a battery only that attaches to a regular charger. Don't be fooled by the "fast charger" thing. As far as I can tell all Stinger chargers will charge in "fast" mode as well as "regular" mode (even the piggyback)Now for accessories. Here it is to the best of my ability is the list for LED lights only. It is not exhaustive and is a guide onlyModel75710-LED flashlight only, no battery75711-LED with AC charger only75712-LED with DC only75713-LED flashlight only with battery75732-LED with AC, DC, and piggyback.

I don't have any knowledge of how many batteries or charger cradles (other then the one I bought) are included with each model because it does not say on the web pages as far as I can tell. I think that in the end you should assume you get one battery and one charging cradle with two cords AC and DC then if you get more it is a bonus.Hope this review helps.These flashlights are incredible. I've used them heavily in the steel industry for 6 years now and they are one the most durable flashlights in this price range.A testament to it's longevity - Unbeknownst to me, this light fell out of my pocket while I was working on a piece of equipment at work. Crawled out of the hole I was crammed in and said machine began running again. Hours later I noticed my light was missing. Went back to the machine I was working on and saw it, with the light still on, sitting under the machine with cooling water drowning the flashlight. It had been this way for at least 4 hours. Waited for the machine to clear, went in and grabbed it and it worked without issue for years afterwards. Needless to say I was pretty impressed.Streamlight's warranty is also fantastic. I was having problems with the button working intermittently after about 4 years of rugged use. Went to Streamlight's website, filled out the warranty information and shipped it out to them. 1 1/2 weeks later I had it back with a new button and about 3 other new parts that did not need replaced (one including the entire aluminum head casing that retains the LED) but were taken care of anyway. No questions asked and return shipping was covered by Streamlight!I have only one NEGATIVE thing to say and it's about the plastic lens (that protects the LED) and it's subpar resistance to heat. I use it around high heat areas (400-1700 deg F) often and have had the lense shrink and crack (spider web) when exposed to these ranges of radiant heat. It only slightly effects brightness and beam concentration but is really only a aesthetic annoyance.Barring that this light is incredible. Would recommend to anyone, especially those who need a VERY durable light with a no-questions-asked warranty!***UPDATE*** It has been about 2 1/2 years since I wrote this review and this light still performs the same as it did the day I received it. Streamlight has truly done a fantastic job making not only manufacturing a dependable light but a DURABLE light. I'll be honest, I've used this as a hammer on more than one occasion when things got really hairy. Didn't phase it in the slightest! Still gets two thumbs up in my book 6 years later!I ordered the flashlight with charger. First order i got had no charger. They had me do replacement and sent another flashlight. The new flashlight also did not come with charger. Finally i just went to ebay and bought the charger. Even though it was more expensive to buy the light with charger.Even though you have to specify when you do not want a charger with this flashlight, the charger that is supposed to come with it may not be included as specified. Make sure you check your box and double check that you paid for the kit that includes a charger. I paid for one but did not get the charger with the light for some reasonReally nice light.... I was concerned about the performance on these stingers but decided to buy it anyways and I'm glad I did. Tight hotspot but the output is actually more than I was expecting. You really see the difference between true lumen output and crazy Chinese flashlight output claimsThere's nothing I really don't like about this light and would recommend it to anyone interested in the streamlight led StingerI used this flashlight when I worked as a front-line police officer for many years. When working night shifts as a first responder one needs a flashlight they can count on. This light is compact and easily carried on a duty belt. It has amazing candlepower for it's size and keeps it's charge for a long time. Furthermore, being rechargeable there is no worry that batteries will die half way through a shift. This is a strong, reliable light you can count on.This light was perfect for what i needed it for, i work security and do night shift so this was a great option.keep in mind that if you're in areas that aren't very big or don't need a lot of throw then this might have to much of a hot spot. how ever i use this in doors and out so it works well for my purpose. the flood is decent and does the job overall I'm ver pleased would recommend it to anyoneDe lo mejor que hay puede iluminar facil y sin problemas el empenaje de un 787 ,you can see the tail of a 787 without problem.viene con 2 bases de carga que traen a su vez doble entrada usb y entrada normal ,cargan mi otra strimelight stinger viejita de alogeno .Great flashlight only on/off trigger rubber very stiff, hard to push
