Common praise
Extremely bright with one million candela beam intensityPortable and rechargeableVersatile with articulating head and multiple mounting optionsRobust and weatherproof housing
High maximum output and brightnessLong runtime especially on medium and low modesErgonomic design with firm grip and anti-roll bodyMode selector switch allowing quick access to desired outputMultiple activation switches (front and tail) for convenienceIPX7 water resistance and 2 meter impact resistanceCompatibility with existing Stinger chargersBuilt-in Micro USB charging on batteries for on-the-go charging
Common complaints
Heavy weight due to sealed lead acid batteryRuntime limited to about 1.75 hours on high intensity modeLarge size not ideal for everyday carry
Maximum output is a brief burst then steps down to half-brightnessSwitches require considerable force to activate constant on, less comfortable than older modelsWide beam angle reduces peak beam intensity and range compared to previous high-intensity variants
