Common praise
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
High maximum output with stable regulation thanks to smart cooling fanSolid build quality with a unique rectangular shape that prevents rollingMultiple beam modes and programmable brightness levelsGood runtime performance relative to high outputConvenient USB-C onboard chargingIncludes lanyard and holsterBatteries included
Common complaints
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
Unusual rectangular shape may feel bulky or less ergonomic to someNo official IP water resistance rating due to fanSwitch can be mushy and produce a popping soundNo very low 'moonlight' modeFan operation audible under loadLanyard quality not premiumNo clip included for pocket carry
