  1. Bought 4 of these and out of the 4, only 2 have worked as promised. They go through batteries every week with little or no use, and half the time won't light when the switch is activated! Really sorry I bought them for when you need a light, you need a DEPENDABLE LIGHT! These aren't!

  2. I have bought 2 of these flashlights because of you cajun (one for my pocket, on for my car) and have bought about 6 as gifts, not to mention friends who have seen mine and gone on to buy some for themselves. Thank you for this review. Its a great light! I was so sad when mine was broken, but the good folks at stream light hooked me up with another.

  3. Mine came with an extra replaceable rubber switch cover. Also the detachable clip folds back on its self, so to be clipped from ether end with out removing it and turning it around. I carry it every day, and I always carry an extra battery in my pocket.

  4. Because we are talking to the camera and it's not like it will hurt your eyes anyway. You are more than welcome to make a video of your own and show the world how it's really done.

  5. The 1.5 hours of battery life is for 'regular' batteries like carbon batteries. If you put an Alkaline especially an Energizer Alkaline, the battery life will significantly increase. Hell, pop an Energizer Lithium in there and you've have 5x longer battery life.
