Picked one of these up this past weekend from @thrillhill . First really nice light I’ve owned. This thing is super bright. It has a high, low, and strobe setting. Great pocket clip, also has a lanyard hole in the end cap. It’s a “dual fuel” light that streamlight is boasting these days. It will run off 2 CR123 or the rechargeable 18650 batteries. The 18650 battery has a micro USB port on the positive end of the battery so you can charge it with a phone charger if you don’t have access to a wall charger.

Those are great lights. I have a few of em and carry one for my edc no issues so far in the 7 months
 
I have one streamlight so far and am really pleased with it, I'll get more.
Them and Fenix get most of my light business
 
I've carried an Olight S1A for the past couple yrs but it's gone MIA. I'm afraid the magnetic tailcap is to blame. It must've been pulled out of my pocket on my loose fitting work pants when I removed some keys or something.
I've ordered a Streamlight Microstream USB rechargeable light to replace it as my EDC. It has a 50 lumen low and 250 lumen high mode vs the original Microstream's single 45 lumen mode. We'll see how it goes.
 
Streamlight rocks. I don't have that one yet but l only carry their flashlights.

BTW, you can use the ten-tap program to get rid of the stupid strobe setting...
 
But then you can't disco...... :)

Lol... It's one useful feature... I will never understand the stupidity of strobes. They're far more likely to blind you than serve any useful purpose and they inevitably go off when you don't want them to...

That's why the programming function is great. The tacticool dummies can keep their disco sticks and the rest of us can set them for low/high/off like common sense dictates...

I know. In all seriousness I hate it too and turn it off on any light that I can.
