This is the greatest flashlight you could ever own. It outperforms most larger flashlights and with a holder can be carried on your belt without being uncomfortable. I've worked night security and also use it at night at home. I also have a Stinger XT H/P that is supposed to have a much higher candlepower rating but my Strion seems to out perform it. Like I said it is the best I've ever owned.

It is a very nice light , I also have the surfire light and I wouldn't say it's twice as bright as the "C2", I would say it is slightly brighter. The biggest advantage is it's rechargeable and it has an adjustable beam. If you don't care about those 2 features you may want to look into the surefire C2 for half the price.

This listing is for the Streamlight 74001, but what shows up when you get it is the 74000. I don't know what the difference between the two is, but there's that.

Also, the description kind of makes it sound like you're getting a charger with the flashlight, but your totally not. The user uploaded photos of the flashlight and charger was kind of confusing also, plus there are a couple reviews of people saying they got the charger. The product description section of the flashlight says "Special Features: AC/DC Charger", so you kind of get the idea that there's a charger included, but I guess what they meant was that the flashlight is rechargeable. The invoice from OutdoorPros says "light only", so obviously I wasn't meant to get the charger with the flashlight.

Kind of a bummer, as I wanted a rechargeable flashlight so that I could charge the thing between uses. Had I realized, I would have bought the thing elsewhere and got the charger too, but oh well.

As far as the flashlight is concerned, it works awesome and I'm stoked it came pre-charged so that I can use it while I take my time being butthurt that I have to spend another $30 on the charger.

Honest reviews on Streamlight 74001 Strion 5-1/2-Inch Flashlight 120-Volt AC/12-Volt

I purchased the Streamlight Strion with the xenon bulb. It is an awesome light. I have used surefire lights and love how bright they are, but for as much as I use the light I can not afford to feed them batteries. The Rechargeable feature of the strion makes it like having a fresh set of batteries in every time, without the outrageous cost of batteries like those used by surefire lights while being just as bright. Rechargeable battery life is good and has not disappointed me yet. I use my light 30+ times a day at my job for any duration of time from momentary to several minutes straight. Battery life and power are still strong after a year of daily use and abuse, in all climates from 130 degs F to below 0 deg F.

You should consider what you want the light to do before deciding on LED or xenon bulb. LED projects more light, but the xenon beam will hold together for a longer, more penetrating beam. Make the right decision for your lights use and you won't be disappointed.

The size and weight of the light makes it great to carry all day, every day. While it is small and convenient to carry, it still provides excellent light.

I finally received my new Strion flashlight from Amazon after having to e-mail customer service. The delivery was very slow for some reason. Nevertheless, the light comes with both AC and DC cords and one base. I wasn't sure what would come with it. I got it for 65 and I see now it's gone up slightly.

A co-worker showed up to work one day with one and I knew then I had to get one. I have had two Stingers and I'm a big fan of them. If this Strion is anything like the Stingers I'm sure it will be my favorite. It is very small and lightweight. I'd definitely recommend it, especially to those in uniform wanting a smaller light on their belt.

Stay safe out there!
