Great quality
Great flashlight gives off a wide span of lighting and it’s the brightest I have ever had in a flashlight. Not heavy to me but I will say it makes for a good security weapon if you’re walking alone.
Amazon Customer –
Nice and bright police work.
Streamlight has always made great flashlights, this model is the best one yet for the money.

Its streamlight… what else is there to say
Does good. Rather bright, medium ish throw distance, but it is on the bigger side. Somewhere between 2d and 3 d cell maglites, kind in the middle length wise. Head diameter is as or bigger. Body diameter is smaller-smaller batteries. Comes with dual connection cord, no block. Can speak on runtime. Does get warm if on for a few. Rubber grip texture on body ic tachy but not too grippy. Will catch on a shirt if worn on hip. No included sheath. Got it as a house light and thats its best purpose. Too big for daily carry, unless car carrying. I have much more expensive and brighter, but for the price versus competition in price range, id buy it first, again over others. Just keep in mind it is on the bigger size and not a edc/pocket or even hip carry type.

Finally, a bright, reliable, adjustable flashlight with good high power battery life
I live near Lake Erie. At the end of the property above the lake there is a 1/3 mile long winding path from the edge of the property to the lake front along a creek. I need a bright, durable, dirt proof and water resistant flashlight because it’s incredibly dark at night on the path to the lake.I’ve researched all brands of flashlights and have owned a wide variety of brands from the cheap 2 for $20 Amazon “specials” to $50 Mag Lights to a $100 Sure Fire flashlight. None of them have met my requirements and I’ve ruined all of them over time.I spent hours researching hand held lights and saw this model in one of the reviews. Here’s why this particular light meets my needs:-LONG battery life on high beam, over 2 hours at 4200 lumens with the rechargeable batteries over an hour at 3200 lumens with Lithium 123 batteries. Some of the other high end lights like Olight that have 2-3 minutes on high beam with their OEM rechargeable batteries.-“Dual fuel” – this light can use four 123 lithium batteries or the OEM rechargeable batteries. The 123’s aren’t as bright as the OEM rechargeable batteries but they still provide excellent output while the other batteries are recharging. See the photo – the 123’s are NOT included but they are readily available, cheap, last 10 years on a shelf and are excellent back up batteries-Dirt and sand proof, water resistant. I read a 1 star review whining about the lack of an external USB charging port and having to charge the batteries instead. That is actually a strong positive for me. An external USB port provides a very vulnerable entry point for dirt and water and the rubber USB port covers ALWAYS come loose and vanish. Recall that I’m using this light on a beach at night and the moisture and sand have killed many other lights in short order.-Top rate machining. This Streamlight torch is well made. The threads are precisely cut, it uses a silicone O ring on the batter cap and the switch also has a silicone cover – see the close up photos.-Three “ten tap” settings. You can change the light settings with ten button pushes to either High, Strobe, Low, High, medium and low or high only-Lower cost than most premium flashlights that allows for the purchase of 2 extra OEM rechargeable batteries that are readily available with Prime shipping that make this light the same price as many other lights with just 2 rechargeable batteriesAreas of improvement:-It could use a “lockout” button so the light cannot be accidentally activated in a back pack or day packOverall, this Streamlight model has met all my needs in tough conditions that include constant exposure to sand, dirt, moisture and water. Hope this helps!

Great Light – Worth It
The light is very well-built and seems tight overall. The build is what makes the light feel substantial. If your hands are a little bigger, you’ll probably notice (at first) that the light feels just a bit small, but the quality of the light makes it worth adjusting your grip a smidge.Its best qualities are the brightness and range of this light. It’s pretty impressive. I’d say it’s bright enough to be used effectively (more or less) in a lighted area, which was more than I expected.- I have not used the programming functions. I’ll probably try them, but I’ll only be running this light on bright with the rechargeable Streamlight batteries.- I wish it came with a sleeve, but getting the pigtail charge cable is a solid trade because the batteries do take a full five hours to charge. Yep, you have to remove the batteries to charge them, but that doesn’t bother me so much as it may others. I guess that would be at top of my wish list for improvements, but I wouldn’t want to sacrifice quality to have it – and there’s always some taking with the giving.- There’s no manual beam adjustment, but that’s not this light’s intended use. It’s built to be rugged and bright, period. If that’s what you’re after, go ahead and spend the money.

Streamlight delivers with one small inconvenience.
This light is fantastic for me as a utility worker. Super bright, very solid grip texture and balance. One star removed because you have to remove the batteries to charge but otherwise, perfect as a work light.

This Streamlight HL5X is a big heavy outdoor torch but very nice when you want a bigger light. High 3500 lumen setting offers the ability to light up the night like a high beam. 250 lumen low setting is most used setting with great runtime compared to a 250 lumen pocket or duty light. To me this is the best part of a big light like this, but high setting is nice to quickly scan a dark area. USB rechargeable batteries work very well and I like that I can also use CR123 lithium primarys for extreme cold or emergency use. Beam is more of a flood pattern imo but with the power and candela it has still very good throw. Obviously on high batteries drain quickly. Could maybe be better paired with 2 3500 mAh 18650s instead of the 2 2600 mAh SL-B26 included if you wanted to be picky about something to improve. Overall excellent big light!

Antes de comenzar es muy importante no alumbrar directamente a los ojos tanto en animales como en humanos, puede causar ceguera temporal y la exposición continua al haz de luz podría dejar secuelas permanentes.Excelente alcance en modo alto con los 3500 lúmenes de salida, el haz de luz es bastante caliente por lo que se recomienda no acercar la mano al lente, trae dos baterías de iones de litio tipo 18650 de 2600 mAh, un cable USB con doble salida micro USB para cargar ambas baterías simultáneamente.La calidad del material es excelente, se siente premium y robusto, chulada de linterna capaz de alumbrar toda una casa recuerda si la apuntas al techo, altamente recomendable sin la menor duda.Actualización: al parecer el aparato ya tenía alguna falla interna que provocó que dejara de funcionar a los 15 días de uso, a pesar de eso dejo las 5 estrellas porque si volveré a comprarla en cuanto haya una mejor oferta, la marca es de fiar.
Mr. E –
Good product. This light is built like a tank and is very bright. One might mistake it for a club. I’ve had very good luck with multiple streamlight products so I assume this will last the test of time.

Excelente producto, calidad indiscutible. Poder extraordinario en el haz de luz. Confiable y robusta. Solo para profesionales que desean lo mejor en equipos. Las baterías de ion litio se recargan por usb. La recomiendo ampliamente.
