Streamlight 66122 Stylus Pro 100-Lumen Penlight With White LED, 2 AAA Alkaline Batteries and Removable Pocket Clip, Blue

This is a tough, well-made flashlight that has many uses. Much has been written on this light already, so I will focus on main points of my experience and what I consider to be the best uses of this flashlight. High Quality: This flashlight is made of high-quality components throughout, from its anodized aluminum body, to its strong pocket clip, to its well-protected switch. The lens is scratch-resistant glass and the LED is rated for tens of thousands of hours, far longer than a lifetime of likely use. How many times have I replaced the bulb in my popular 2 AA battery mini light? Too many. This one should last a good long time. The AAA batteries that this one takes fit nicely with little (but some) movement if the light is shaken. The tail switch has a strong, positive feel to it and is covered by a sturdy rubber boot. The light is water resistant and has a rubber O-ring in its tail cap. Powerful Light: Though it is a small light and runs on AAA batteries, this throws off plenty enough light to find one's way around a dark room, house, basement, or office building. It is easily strong enough to check for critters 50 feet out in my back yard. There are many brighter flashlights out there, but for its size and battery type, this on is really good. While the beam cannot be focused or changed, the spill of light is reasonable and the center of the beam remains bright and compact at a distance. The light, to my eyes, is a clean white and not tinged with color. I have not tested this light continuously with new batteries, but the batteries do seem to last a long time with periodic use. Value: This one is always big with me. I can afford having nice toys, but I feel silly spending lots of scratch for something that only works marginally better. This excellent little light is a terrific value, but throw in a decent nylon holster and quality batteries and it's just outstanding. Personally, I don't think it is practical to wear this light with the holster, as it is so light that it hangs on just fine with its strong pocket clip. The holster makes for a nice storage device, though. Best Uses: To me, this is an ideal light to have anywhere you would want one for emergency purposes: The glove box of an auto, the nightstand, your office drawer. Ever been in a large office building when the lights go out? I have, and it's no fun. Keep this little baby in your office drawer next to the pens and pencils and it will give you more than enough light to lead you to safety through darkened offices and stairwells. This light takes up so little space - about the size of a mechanical pencil - that there really isn't a reason not to have one either on your person or in your immediate vicinity. Carried in your shirt pocket, you hardly know it is there. It is likewise handy to illuminate that flat tire in the middle of a rainy night, or to find that nut that you just dropped down past the manifold. Ladies, this is an excellent item to have in your purse or bag, too. Ever been camping and wanted to take a stroll to the loo without having to take the lantern with you? This little light is perfect for all those occasions. Could you get a light that throws off more light or lasts longer? Sure, and I've got those, too. But this one is so small, powerful, and inexpensive, I don't feel bad about getting a few of them to have around where I need them. Would I want to leave my expensive tactical flashlight in my desk drawer at work where it's likely to nicked by a coworker or cleaning crew? No. The beauty of this flashlight is that it is small enough to put anywhere you would need it and inexpensive enough that you feel you could. And, while it's not as powerful as some of the other, fancy lights you may have, it is more than powerful enough to do most of what you would want a flashlight for, especially in emergency situations. I've been using these for a while now and they have been reliable and tough. For performance, value, and durability, this flashlight is an easy five stars.

Pros -High quality construction -Very bright considering size and weight -Excellent value. for around $20 you should buy several of these. -Compact size. very easy to carry daily -CREE LED should last a long time Cons -The constant on botton can be difficult to push -everybody wants mine. If I'm being totally honest I have only had this flashlight for about a week. I'm not qualified to comment on the durability or construction on it other than to say I am not at all worried based on the other reviews and the feel in hand. This thing feels like it would survive a few deployments in a warzone. Which is almost definitely overkill for a pen light but not so much overkill that it hurts anything. The light is still under 3 ounces but manages to feel very sturdy. Supposedly it is all o ring sealed so it should be fairly water proof and shock resistant. I'm not going to fling it at any concrete any time soon but it gives me the impression it would be no worse for wear. What I can say without a doubt is that I love this light. I frequently get home after dark and I wanted a nice small flashlight I could carry to light my way. This thing is an excellent companion in that regard. It is light enough to go unburdened into my pocket and small enough to not really get in the way of anything. I suppose if you're a hipster or a woman and are accustomed to wearing pants so tight you barely squeeze into them it may be more of an issue but if that's the case you can always clip on the outside of your pants. There's really no excuses to not be able to carry one of these. I was also surprised how bright the Cree LED is. The description says 65 lumens but as many of us know not all lumens are equal. Streamlight does not appear to be deceptive when they say 65 lumens. This light is plenty bright for the size of it. It isn't extremely bright if you take size out of the equation so I wouldn't necessarily use it as your only flashlight around the house but it is purpose built and exceptional at its designated duty. Don't expect it to be as bright as your headlights and you should be plenty satisfied with it. The power button is a little difficult to click to constant on. That would be perhaps the biggest con I've noticed so far. I can still do it with either hand and I can forgive them for designing it that way because it was done on purpose. They make it very easy to lightly hold the button down for a quick momentary on burst but in turn make it difficult to get it clicked on to fully on. There's plenty of people offering suggestions and instructions on how to fix that if you don't like it but I accept it as part of the design and see no issues with it. I'm usually only using a penlight in short bursts anyway. If I needed more light I should be going for more flashlight as well. The only reason I even think it's worth mentioning is because older people or anyone with dexterity issues might not like it so much if they can't turn on the constant on mode. I don't think anyone that can open a pickle jar would have issues though. Overall I am very satisfied with this purchase. It has been my first Streamlight product but I can confidently say it will not be my last. I am very pleased with the product. I would and have already recommended it to friends and family members interested in a high quality light. This is a great, HIGH value option for something you want to carry every day. If you compare this to what you could at Wal-Mart off the rack for 15-20$ this light would run circles around any of their options. Buy one. I have no doubt you wont need another unless you lose it.

Streamlight is one of the best in the business and for good reason. Rock solid construction and a perfect level of illumination. I use my streamlight stylus every day. So far still on the first set of batteries and I anticipate long battery life. Fits perfect in shirt pockets or in most pen/pencil pockets. I have heard people say the button can be difficult to fully click for continuous use, however I find the resistance to be quite useful as sustained use is rarely needed for my use case. When needed however the button does click into a continuous use mode. Overall the best EDC pen light I have used.

Quick Review: Awesome, lightweight, durable, simple, reliable, cool, functional, and you should buy one now. Long Review: In the past few months I have bought 4 of these flashlights. In the past few years I have started an everyday carry system. I have always heard how useful a flashlight is to have on you at all times but never really got one because I though how useful it was considering I have an iPhone on me at all times. So the more I heard about the idea about carrying a flashlight as well as hearing about this flashlight I became intrigued. I saw this flashlight listed at around $20. Being a college student even this is relatively affordable. There was nothing I heard that made this seem like a bad product with reviews and such being very positive. So I puled the trigger on one. Not to sound cheesy but it really did change my life. I never knew how useful these things could be because they are slightly bigger than a pen with a ton of light being thrown out. Definitely an upgrade from the iPhone. This product is not the best out there but it is close. The only other main competitor (that I know of) is the Four Sevens Preon 2 being about the same size and weight. However it is twice as much being around $44. It has a much brighter light over 100 lumens, even though I have heard reviews say that in reality it is not brighter. Also the Preon 2 has different modes like high, mid, low ,sos and so on. This is definitely something to consider because if you have the extra money I would say go for it. It also looks fantastic and is very streamlined. Also the streamlight protac might be another option too. However, if your like me and want to save a few bucks this is the best option. It is slim, not much bigger than your standard pen, it is very simple, and it is rugged. It is also bright and the battery last longer than that you think. Im sure by now you can figure out that I really like this product however there is one small issue I have with it. That is the finish. I'm sure that the finish is great even compared to the competitors but while I had this in my pocket I noticed that the finished began to wear and wear fast. From the few months that I had it it look already a few years old due to it being beat up. I haven't used it a ton nor have I abused it. I think the wear was due to the fact I had a leatherman multi-tool in the same pocket so I don't blame it on the product itself. I was weary about the rubber tail cap getting worn out but I haven't seen much wear on that plus it is replaceable anyways. Other than that there are really no negative points. So overall for the money I have not seen anything that can beat this product. Also Streamlight has improved this model with a more powerful LED bumping the lumen count to 65 from 48. Not a huge upgrade but it still is better than nothing. Again the light is very powerful even for being only 65 lumens it definitely seems like more. It is a huge improvement over an iPhone or any cell phone camera for that matter, it just doesn't compare. I am more than happy to spend my money on this product and would do it again in a heartbeat. Since I got my first one I ended up getting another for myself as well as one for each of my parents. They also love theres although, not quite as much as I do. So in my honest opinion, just buy one. I promise it will be worth it. Oh did I mention it came with 2 Energizer batteries? Well played Streamlight, well played... NOTE: The picture is comparing the new light to the old one. As you can see the old one does have a significant amount of wear and scratches but it runs perfectly and I have no problems using it.

This is one of the best pen type flashlights I've ever owned. It's bright and doesn't eat up the batteries like most. I've had the blue one for over 6 years. I lost the blue one a couple years ago. Then ordered the silver one. After the silver flashlight arrived I found the blue one in my driveway. My truck ran over it and it was sunk down in the gravel and dirt. Took it in cleaned it off and worked fine, didn't even dent it Missing about two weeks. It's lightweight and waterproof. What I liked about it is I wear overalls all the time and it fits comfortable in my bib front pocket along with my pocket knife. I always have it with me and has come in handy hundreds of times I don't leave home without it. As for buying it again, just as soon as I thought the blue one was lost I re bought the silver one. I won't go anywhere without it. It's a durable product well worth the money.

I wanted a small flashlight with single button operation for use in my pickup truck. I bought this based on the number of positive reviews here on Amazon and all over the internet. After spending a couple days with the light, I'm very happy with it. It's relatively small and thin, and I can clip to my shirt pocket and just forget about it until I need it. Currently it's clipped to a band I have wrapped around my truck's driver side visor to be easily accessible. The light itself appears to be well made, and of high quality. For this price, I was not expecting such a nice flashlight. The switch on the tail cap is a bit stiff as other reviewers have stated, but it's really not that big of a deal. One of the functions I really like about the light is that if you push down part of the way on the switch, the light goes on, but will go off when you release pressure on the switch. This is how I imagine myself typically using the light for looking around in the cab of my truck. I know, it sounds like a stupid thing to rave about, but the partial push is super simple and just seems a lot quicker for my typical use, and I find myself preferring this over fully compressing the switch for a quick look at something. The light is very bright. I had thought brighter was always better when it came to flashlights, but I don't think I'd want a brighter light for use in my truck. It's bright enough to light up anything I'd want to look at inside the cab, under the truck, under the hood, and for a good 20+ yards outside. Any brighter and it would be a little too much for inside the vehicle use. I’d also use this light hiking or camping without hesitation, it’s bright enough for just about anything I’d need it for. One thing to note, the Amazon description says it's 24 lumens, it's actually 48 lumens. Apparently they've upgraded the LED bulb with a much brighter one since that description was written. If you’re looking for a small and simple one button flashlight, I highly suggest looking at this light. I’ve heard very good things about 4 Sevens Preon 2, which has three brightness modes, going all the way up to 160 lumens (which would be much brighter than this light). I also own a 4 Sevens Q-Mini AA2, which has three brightness levels and can put out as much as 180 lumens, but you have to twist the head to operate the light. Considering cost and usefulness, I think the Streamlight Stylus Pro is the best of the bunch, but recommend looking at all of these.

Great flashlight. Super useful and light weight in the pocket. Super bright and the battery last forever. Takes a few hours to charge.

2-year review: STILL my #1 EDC flashlight! I wish I could give 10⭐'s out of 5 because I would. From the insane durability to the high quality case and body; to the rechargeable battery to the perfect fit! 👌🏽 This hits every mark I had and some I didn't even know I needed. I work in a rehabilitation center and regularly get called to search for "contraband" in tight places. This little guy has never failed me. It is so bright I often only need the low setting to get done what needs done. The charge lasts for hours -even on high! Overall I have no complaints. The only slightly negative thing about it, and this is just preference- is the micro USB instead of the USB-C connection. But I bought this over 2 years ago so it may have been updated since. The brightness is 5⭐, weight is perfect and case(body) is durable metal, also 5⭐. The kicker for me is how compact it is for such a great, would, rechargeable EDC flashlight. 10⭐/5👏🏽
