New Favorite EDC: Streamlight Wedge SL

I don't buy any edc light that doesn't take double or triple A batteries.

I am a big Streamlight fan. I have many.

Absolutely correct Roy. I want a light that's 500 lumens, and goes ON and OFF. Sure I use it for utility purposes, but as a retired Street Cop, I also know how Tactically important it is to have a light if you concealed carry. You don't need a light that requires a college course in programming, when you need it under stress. Streamlight is doing some great stuff with EDC type lights and I carry a 1L – Protac or a rechargeable Macrostream everyday. Now I guess I have to buy one of these Wedge Lights. It's just too much for me to resist.

I was just looking at flashlights this morning… it’s like someone read my mind.

Ok Roy, I ordered one. Are you happy? By the way, the S&W 432UC you practically insisted I buy is now one of my favorites! Keep up the great video’s!

Geez Roy, you brought up a sore subject around my place. I always carry two flashlights and there’s plenty of other ones around the house not counting the headlamps.
Honestly I didn’t realize how useful an EDC flashlight was until I started carrying one years ago. Now I can’t do without them.

Why do we males, all have the same kind of obsessions … flashlights, knives, guns😅…never enough

I'm a security officer, and I get tired if constantly cycling through 3 or 4 modes just to turn the flashlight 🔦 off. Plus, it wares out the switch much more quickly.

Reminds me of a carpenter pencil which i carry a lot. Got to get me one of these lights, thanks for sharing.

Very nice, Mr. Roy! Now shopping for one of these. Wishing you a very Happy New Year for 2026! 🎆 🇺🇸

I work part time at Home Depot and I would like to buy flash lights but don't, I'm looking at a 2000 lumina now.

I’ve been carrying Streamlight flashlights for years. I bought my wife the little keychain light and it’s darned impressive for its size. I’ll have to try that new one

“How many flashlights do I need?” “Philadelphia lawyer.” I like your humor. My Streamlight microstream broke; maybe I’ll replace it with this one.

Thankfully, somebody understands that strobe is NOT requured!

Simple IS better! Especially with these things. We have come a long way from those hideous AA batery and breakable not too bright pen lights. Reminds me of a carpenters pencil.

I have the Streamlight Macrostream, and the Microstream usb. One is always in my edc rotation. Looks like this will be my next.

NO SOS? NO STROBE? I'll take two!

I still have an original Kel-Lite, 4 D cells. Pre-dates Streamlight and Maglite!

I got the one with the switch on the side that I really liked a lot. But the police always snatch it off of me saying it’s a weapon. I got the shorty with the back button and don’t like that configuration as much.

I used to be die hard for Maglites, and they still hold a piece of my heart, but Streamlight is dang near unbeatable.

I have had a $14 Energizer Tac 300 in my pocket for 7 years now. It's been used heavily, even under water.
I have a second on my night stand, and two that I have never used.

I miss the old lights with light bulbs

I've been carrying a ledlenser for over twenty years, I love this flashlight.I've replaced it once with the newer.Series they are indestructible. Turn it on toss it off a boat. It'll stay lit all the way to the bottom. And we'll stay lit for a very long time until the batteries die. My current occupation, I use a flashlight every single night. I work which is 40 hours a week.
Battery life can last 3-5 months
Quite possibly a year, depending on how often you use it. It fits perfectly in my hand it's not too big.It's not too small the entire frame is metal with a rubber seal. Protecting where the battery is great company product. And it is the perfect size to carry something else in your dominant hand.

"Philadelphia Lawyer" 😂😂

Flashlights and Firearms go together

Streamlight is the working man's surefire. Some of us have car payments and mortgages 😅

That's a cool light. I have flashlights everywhere in my house, builds, truck😅 you can never have to much light

I have more firearms than flashlights. My EDC lights are Streamlight, Pro-Tac 1L-1AA or their Macrostream USB. My old fav is a Surefire 9p that I almost lost at work. A tree snagged the lanyard while we were rolling along the Yaquina River. I stopped the train to go back to get it, angering my conductor…she got over it. Cheers, Roy!

I’ve been carrying a FENIX for the last 4-5 years at work. I have a couple of the batteries for it and they are rechargeable. Pricy but well worth it.

These are awesome! Won’t roll away on an unlevel surface, flat like carrying a pocket knife and extremely durable.

My favorite channel for this reason!

All of them seems about the right amount

I don’t need red and I don’t need strobe. This light, may be one for me to look at. Thanks 👍🏻🇺🇸

😂 like having guns haven't got there yet !😂😂😂

Man, I love the ergos on this one. 🤠

Very nice piece of kit. That said, I’ll keep my Streamlight Microstream. $75 is a bit expensive for me right now.

I have a streamlight mini flashlight rechargeable that is about 15 years old and stills works great

You are always costing me money!!

Thank you!

Just like guns never enough!

It's a nice design but a bit pricey for me.

Love that design and capabilities. I’ll have to get one Roy!
