Great flashlight November 17, 2009

I'm a service tech and need to hunt around the dark innards of machinery. This light has earned the coveted position alongside my Kendo Gel inkpen and retractable Sharpie in my shirtpocket. Geeked out, I know, but I take my tools seriously and this light is the perfect combinbation - very bright, durable, lightweight. The best I've found yet. I used to carry the skinnier Streamlight penlight but this one beats it hands down ( triple-A batteries versus the hard-to-find AAAAs and the 66118 Stylus Pro has a circuit which sustains full brightness over the useful battery life)
 intense, tight, high output, beam . . . but there could a problem with the switch . . . October 28, 2009

Recent developments in LED technology are very promising. LED's are an economical, super bright light source, that draw less power, and have a much longer life than incandescent lamps. Although LED's do degrade slowly over time, they will still produce decent output for a long, long time.
This Streamlight 66118 flashlight utilizes a single high output LED as the light source, and powered by two AAA batteries, produces a very bright and intense beam of light. Beam spread is rather narrow, and not adjustable. The flashlight provides good general illumination for short distances, and has the kick to reach quite far.
The housing is weather resistant anodized aluminum, with a rubber sealed on/off switch at the top. Gently pushing the switch, temporarily turns the light on. There is a metal clip which is attached to the screw on cap with the switch. As has been noted in another review, if you are not careful, the clip can scrape the finish of the housing when the cap is screwed off or on. Putting a layer of tape around the housing, where the clip touches the housing should help prevent damage. A serviceable nylon holster is also included.
Through the years there have probably been thousands of different designs for flashlights, and what is really amazing, is the small number that actually work well. The design of such simple device, apparently has not been perfected yet. The light output of this flashlight is fantastic, but I was having problems with the light not coming on every time the switch was pressed. I was using alkaline batteries, but when I switched to rechargeable batteries the problem almost completely went away. Evidently the terminals of the rechargeable batteries made better contact with the spring, and the LED lamp contact.
Conventional alkaline batteries usually hold their charge for a long time, and so they are a good choice for a flashlight that is mainly used for emergencies. The downside is that alkaline batteries can leak, and the acid can damage or destroy a flashlight. Using rechargeable batteries, you can avoid the leaking problem, but most rechargeables do not hold a charge for very long, and you run the risk of not having power when you really need it.
If you have a problem with a buggy switch, try using rechargeable batteries. Other than that issue, this is a very powerful and well constructed flashlight, that is convenient to carry and use. What is also good about this model versus others by Streamlight, is that the lens is flat and less exposed to danger, and it uses easy to obtain AAA batteries.

Great compact LED light. Well built with powerful light. All the light you will need in case of an emergency. Expensive but worth it.
best little light ever! October 23, 2009
satisfied customer
upgrade to lithium aaa's and you've got the best little light ever. the shorter single aaa light is my fav because it fits in a pocket while this longer pen-like version is great for purses.
