Streamlight 88061 ProTac 1L-1AA Tactical Flashlight, Black | 350 lumens; multi-fuel or 18650; IPX7 waterproof; impact-resistance tested; anti-roll body with pocket clip

I got this light because it uses batteries, NOT usb charging. I occasionally visit places without electricity (or convenient outlets even if they do have it), and can stock up on batteries for long power outages. Relying on usb charging would be silly if thinking about prepping. The CR123 battery gives 40 lumens for 14 hours and 350 lumens for 1 1/2 hrs. I've used mine for three weeks, just briefly each day bringing in firewood from the shed or checking the shop, and on a 5 day trip to a monastery in the mountains with no electricity where I used it more heavily in the early mornings and evenings. Still on the first CR123 battery. The lithium AA battery gives the same 40 lumens for the same 14 hours and 150 for 4 1/2 hours. 40 lumens is plenty for most of my uses but when I need more light, 350 is significantly more power. This light is small enough that I keep it clipped in my back pocket all day every day and it's not noticeable. It comes with low, blinking, and high settings, but you can change that easily, which I did, to get rid of the blinking and just have low and high, which are easily accessed: one click for low, one flash (not click) on and off and back on again for high. I think this is the best general use EDC flashlight I've ever had and I intend to get get a couple more to have around and as gifts. [edit] After another month of steady use of the Streamlight ProTac 1L-1AA, I *highly* recommend this light. It's small enough to be conveniently carried clipped in the back pocket, powerful enough (low and high) to be useful in almost all situations, simple enough to adjust to settings that are most useful, and long-lasting enough to be extremely thrifty, AND it doesn't rely on the electrical grid but takes batteries (CR123, AA lithium, or AA alkaline) which are easy to carry as backup and last a LONG time with normal use. I've been using this light for almost two month, just brief use each day and am still on the first battery. It's shockproof and waterproof (or highly water-resistant), has a great cap clip (I use that feature all the time and it works beautifully as it's not too heavy for a ball cap), and the on-off clicker on the end-cap requires just the right pressure, unlike others I've had. This is easily the best ECS light I've ever had. Did I say that before? I should have said it in caps. Did I also mention that I highly recommend it? Yeah, I do. You will not regret getting this light. Streamlight Protac 1L-1AA

This is a great light. It is competitively priced and is a nice size for pocket carry in men's jeans. I wear a slimmer cut pants (not skinny jeans lol) and there is no noticeable bulge in my pocket. The unboxing experience was plesant. Packaging was about standard, and was well put together. The light came with 1 CR123A (more about this later), 1 AA, the light (duh?), a pouch, and a wrist strap. I pocket carry this light only so I haven't used the pouch yet but it could be useful for storing things in and seems to be of good quality. Pros: Quite bright, with a nice balance between distance and width. The light can easily reach 200 ft or so while having a wide enough beam to provide good peripheral visibility. Durable (so far). I have already dropped it several times on concrete and other than a few scratches it works like a champ, although I expected this. The hat clip feature is useful. It is worth noting that the part of the clip contacting the bill of the hat is rounded over so it won't damage the front edge of the hat. Nice touch! The pocket clip is nice and sturdy, and I haven't had any issues with it sliding around or falling out throughout the day. The feature to be able to use AA batteries is awesome. I prefer to use a CR123A in order to achieve the full brightness, however it is very nice to have the option should I not have any CR123As on hand or if I don't feel like wasting the more expensive battery on a less demanding task. I imagine this feature would be very nice while camping or doing other things as AAs are far more prevalent and cheaper than CR123As. The tail switch is extremely easy to actuate while not turning on in my pocket easily. Strobe is also very easy to actuate (double tap). The end of the flashlight, near the bezel, is flattened on several sides so the light won't easily roll around. This is a nice detail. The lens and the glass (I believe it is acrylic of some sort) is recessed which is nice as it won't scratch or become damaged as easily. Cons: I would have liked for the pocket clip to carry a little further down in my pockets, as almost the entire screw on tail-cap portion sticks out. Although as long as you don't care about it being super concealed (it is just a flashlight after all) I can usually just tuck my shirt over it and it isn't much of an issue. I wish there was a way to possibly program the light to go High > Low > Strobe by single, double, and triple tapping. Currently, it is setup as High > Strobe > Low, and I find that I have to press it up against my clothing while actuating because the strobe function will turn on momentarily while switching to low which is quite blinding, especially when you need a lower amount of lumens to begin with. Not really a con, but the battery that came with the flashlight died very quickly, within the span of 1 week with not much use. However, I ordered a pack of 2 CR123As with the flashlight and the battery life of those are much improved. I have had the same battery in for about a month now with with moderate use and have had almost no visible reduction in lumens. Both of these cons are more nitpicks than anything. I very much enjoy this light, and can't wait to see how it holds up over time.

This is my EDC flashlight, bar none. Small enough to carry in a front pocket or as I often carry it, clipped inside the pocket of my cargo pants. The hat clip is indispensable for providing hands free illumination on the go. It has literally replaced my usual headlamps for hands free lighting. This flashlight's greatest strength is that it takes disposable CR123A or AA batteries. In the past I bought numerous rechargeable LED lights but have come to find out they are limiting in their usefulness. If you are out and about and the light dies on you, you are stuck until you have time to wait for a recharge, if you even have a place to recharge it. And rechargeable batteries are always low or drained out when you need them most. During hurricane Helene we were without power for 4 days, and I used it constantly to see my way around a darkened house clipped to the brim of my hat. I only needed to carry a spare battery in my pocket. When the battery ran down I had it back up and running in the time it takes to swap out the old one. While AA batteries only work on the lower lumens level, you can find AA batteries everywhere, and everyone has them, so your light will always have power when you need it. Talk about versatility. You can reprogram the light so it comes on low first, then bright on the second click, which is what I did. The lower lumens setting provides longer battery life and plenty of illumination for most purposes and I don't have to double tap to get it to low every time I turn it on. Perfect. Given the size, the availability of replaceable batteries (a must for me now), its durability, clip utility and 10 tap programmability, this would have been the exact flashlight I would have designed if someone gave me a clean slate to work with. I never leave the house without it.

This flashlight is the perfect EDC or work flashlight, as well as a great option for emergencies or backup. This flashlight is multi-fuel, so it will accept regular AA batteries, rechargeable batteries, CR123A lithium ion, etc. - the perfect setup for using whatever batteries you can easily find or have on hand. I LOVE that the flashlight is lightweight and only requires one battery, but you also get a pretty rugged design with this model that can take some drops, scrapes, rough use, and even water exposure. The flashlight is small with a sturdy and reliable clip, and it comes weight a small pouch that has a velcro strap for attaching to belt, MOLLE, backpacks, etc. The brightness is not anything that will knock your socks off (only 350 lumens for 1.5 hrs), but this is more than enough light and is really solid for only using one battery. It also has a low setting go 40 lumens with a run time of app. 14 hours. So, the final verdict: GREAT flashlight and reliable option for basically any purpose requiring a mediums lumen output of light! If you are on the edge, JUST BUY IT!!

Good product for the price. Pocket clip is strong and functional. Nice that it can be clipped to a hat without having to take the clip off and flip it backwards. Nicely redesigned. Light is bright with a neutral tint. Low is useful at 40 lumens, high is well suited for a variety of tasks both indoors and outdoors. NOTE: I am referring to 350 lumens high setting with a CR123 battery. The dual fuel capability is versatile and more and more lights will probably have this feature moving forward. Comparing the beam to a Streamlight ProTac 1L (180 lumen CR123 light) the hot spot in the 1L-1AA is larger and hotter. It fills more space with more light giving better peripheral vision. The low setting of 40 lumens is (IMO) more effective for indoor tasks that require more than 12 lumens but not 180 (high ProTac 1L) or 350 (high for 1L-1AA with CR123). This gives enough light to easily see indoors without going through your battery too fast. The light feels nice in the hand. It's slightly longer than the ProTac 1L and the tail cap has knurling which adds a more secure feeling when you hold it. Now I want to talk batteries. There is a rechargeable that is safe to use with these lights. You can also use these batteries with Surefire lights. Amazon sells them. Here is a link. K2 Energy LFP123A Rechargeable Li Ion 3.2V Battery Replaces CR123A - Single These batteries are fully charged at 3.65v. They can be used safely to 2.8v. They have a nominal capacity of 600mAh. The chemistry is Lithium Iron Phosphate or LiFePO4. They maintain a steady 3.2v. This means your light will maintain a high level of light output. If using the light for a long time the microprocessor may stage down the light output because of thermal regulation, but not due to the voltage dropping. 3.2v is maintained for more than 90% of the charge cycle. Once the light enters "low mode" turn the light off, and charge them up. Simple. Over discharging can damage them. The runtimes are decent in the Streamlights I own. Protac 1L, ProTac 1L-1AA. I also use this in a Gen 2 Surefire Fury, 600 lumens. (no runtime test yet conducted on the Surefire with these batteries) It saves money in the long run and the fact that you can charge them up at any time means you will not have to guess how much power is in your light. When you turn on your light, you're getting max output, sustained. One battery charges in 80 min and 2 batteries charge in 160 minutes. Those charge times reflect 2.8v up to full at 3.65v. I use the charger that came with the batteries made by the same company. There is a picture in the link above. You can charge these batteries ONLY in a charger that specifically states it can charge LiFePO4 batteries! Here is another example: XTAR VP2 Independent 2-Channel Battery Charger w/ Dual Voltage Display, USB Power Bank for 18560 and similar Lithium Ion and LiFePO4 Cells (Simple Kit - no Car Charger included, A/C adapter only) Do not charge above C/1. The capacity is 600mAh so charge at NO MORE THAN 600mA or .6A. Really 300mA (.3A) to 500mA (.5A) is safe and still fast. Keep a spare set with you and be ready. Most chargers come with or offer a car adapter to charge on the go. Asp Law Enforcement CR123A Link Case (Pack of 4) *update* It's now Fri, 25 Aug 2017. After having this light for several months, I change my rating from 5 stars down to 4 stars. Here's why: The body of the light is too smooth. The knurling on the tail cap is not aggressive enough to provide a secure grip. The body having no knurling on it baffles my mind. The light output, beam quality, function, etc all remain excellent. The pocket clips dual use feature is still awesome. It simply needs to feel more secure in hand. I am still using and loving K2 LiFePO4 cells in this light.

Absolutely Fantastic flashlight! I really like the size and having 2 battery options that provide differing brightness settings.

This is my third Streamlight Protac 1L-AA light in the last 5-6 years. All provided very good service in every day carry. First two were still functional when retired but looked terrible so they were given away. Not much to say other than the ability to use CR123 or AA batteries makes for easy to find battery replacement. Switch is well made, the pocket clip works well. Not sure what else to discuss, the LED bulb throws a decent amount of light especially with CR123 battery. My go to every day carry flashlight

Update 5/2021. Still using all kinds of batteries in the light and it works fine. I have carried other lights that I have grown to prefer, but this little guy keeps popping into the rotation every once in a while. ******* This is a great light for several reasons. I keep one in all the cars with a cr123 in them for emergency needs. They just work when you need them. Nice and small, also carry one on me or in my briefcase. It takes at least 5 different types of battery that I have found so far. I know that streamlight specifically states not to use Rcr123a rechargeables, but they work fine. Even better is that it runs on 14500 batteries. Now you do lose the low brightness when using rechargeables, it’s more like bright and slightly less bright. Strobe still works fine. But it is brighter than using cr123s for sure. I’ve done some pretty extensive testing with this and have run into no reliability issues yet. So you can run off 1AA, 1AAA, Cr123, Rcr123a, and 14500. In my testing a 800Mah 14500 will run bright for about an hour. Then it will diminish from about 280 lumens to about 50 lumens (as unscientificly measured against other flashlights of known lumen output) over the next 30 minutes. I stop testing at 1.5 hours, but expect it would just continue to dim and probably give you another 15-30 minutes of useable light. The light gets just as warm as it does with a Cr123 and then cools as the lumens decrease. The best part is that as compared to my Streamlight 2L-X it has slightly better throw. The 2L-X most likely still puts out more lumens, but it is hard to tell in the dark. They look nearly identical. This light just throws slightly farther and still has great spill. This light is nice and small and the clip is perfect for a hat brim or a pocket. The emitter is a bit more neutral white, but still a cooler color. Certainly not as yellow as a zebra headlamp in neutral. It is a nice bright neutralish cool white. I suspect streamlight doesn’t advertise the battery capability because they want to keep selling their Cr123 batteries. That or what I’m doing will kill the emitter quicker. Maybe both. Regardless, I have a bunch of these little lights as they have become my favorite. Stash them with Cr123s for emergencies, EDC/ use with a 14500 and carry a Cr123 as a back up. I’ve had luck with this but don’t recommend it since you “could” fry your light. Hasn't happened to me yet. But just to be safe....

シンプルかつ、軽い最高の製品です。 10回押さないとモードが切り替わらないため、不意に切り替わることもなく安定感があります。 今まではOLIGHTのWARRIOR Mini2を使用していましたが、ハイテクすぎる点や充電用マグネットの不安定さに嫌気がさしていました。 その点シンプルかつ信頼性が高く、単三電池で対応できる安心感はこの価格でも満足できるプロダクトです。

Used daily. Always works. Have traveled in planes with it multiple times. High beam small enough for hand held. This is an amazing product you end up using it often. Plus if you do get into an altercation, your all good 😉

I've owned a Streamlight for many years - the bigger version, which is heavy and a bit awkward to run out for something - my yard gets quite dark at night. This little light is fantastic, super bright and casts a wider beam so you can see around the angle of the light. It's lightweight, perfect size in the hand, has a great little carry pouch if you need it, and ladies this is perfect for a purse sized option. We all need to be aware of our surroundings these days. And let's face it most regular flashlights suck, or are so cheaply made they barely cast any light. Not helpful on a dark street or parking area. My only thing is that when using the CR123 batteries they don't last long. I would say that the estimate of 1.5 hours on high is likely about right, so even running in and out for a few minutes a day (for the dog) it burns that battery quickly. Stock up on these batteries if that's your preferred choice or have your AA stock on hand if that is your preference. It is worth it. Thank you to the awesome and helpful review on fake models. Much appreciated that you took the time to write such detailed examples. I checked mine immediately and it's genuine.

Qualità veramente top come sempre

Einfach nur mega 👍👍
