Review: Excellent AA flashlight, bright, durable, and easy to use - I've used a major competitor's brand of black, twist-to-turn-on 2xAA-powered flashlights (both LED and incandescent) for decades. However, I had regular reliability issues with that brand where the light would either flicker, be very dim, or go out entirely. Clearly, I needed something different. I've used other Streamlights as weapon lights for a while and really like them. I also have a larger, rechargeable LED flashlight that is very bright and very useful, but a bit thick. My requirements were fourfold: 1. Use 2xAA batteries, and function well with NiMH rechargeable batteries. 2. Be robust and durable, and be able to withstand drops, bumps, etc. 3. Have a pushbutton switch on the tailcap rather than a twist-to-turn on switch. 4. Have a bright "high" mode" and a usable "low" mode with a much longer battery life. This light fits all those requirements. The high mode runs for about two hours and produces 250 lumens, which is plenty bright. The low mode produces 18 lumens, which sounds like not a lot, but is perfect for when I'm out walking the dog or needing to shine some light on something in the house. It's a perfectly satisfactory amount of light for most purposes, and it'll run for nearly two days on low on a single set of batteries. I use the low mode more than the high mode. I typically use eneloop NiMH rechargeable AA batteries (they don't leak and can be used thousands of times!) and they work very well with this light. I don't use the flashing strobe light function, but I can see how it would be very useful for signalling or disorienting someone (my kids have turned on the strobe and shined it at me, and it is indeed very disorienting). The light is thin enough to slip into a jeans pocket without discomfort, and the clip holds the light securely to the pocket while still being easy to slide it out. Flat segments on the front portion of the light's housing prevent it from rolling on most flat surfaces, which is nice. It's withstood two kids under 10 beating on it for a while, everyday use in my pocket in a laboratory, and a variety of other hostile environments without any complaint or issues. The "TEN TAP" configuration option is useful for changing between the three operating modes: high/strobe/low, high only, and low/high. Personally, I wish there were three additional modes: high/low/strobe (so I don't have to skip past the strobe to get to low), low only, and low/high/strobe (so I can start in low and switch to high while still having the option for strobe). I normally just keep it on high/strobe/low. In short, it's a fantastic light and I recommend it.
Review: Powerful - Quite powerful for the size of the torch.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it burn the skin??**
A: Not this one at least. I have a story those those who don't think an LED flashlight can do this.....I do have another light that burned me pretty bad one time. Manker E14: small light unregulated 1000 lumens on high and a copper head to wick heat from the driver. Second degree burn; I had a gnarly blister for a few weeks after that.

**Q: If you were standing on the tarmac, would this flashlight illuminate the wings of a Boeing 777 (about 130 feet away and 10 feet elevated)?**
A: No. Only B757’s and 767 will illuminate. The 777 has a non reflective coating.

**Q: Is the ProTac HL3 made in the USA? The spec chart claims that to be its origin, but other streamlights are imported**
A: For a replacement switch try a search using your specific model number. Opticsplanet had one for my Streamlight 88061 ProTac at $5 bucks and it was the entire lower section of the flashlight, not just the switch itself. If you are beyond the warranty or just rather not bother with all the mailing back and forth this is an easy solution.

**Q: Does the remote switch come with it?**
A: Yes it comes with the remote switch. It's pretty much only way one can get one..as I have the handheld ProTac HL-X and hoped I could throw in a mount and buy the remote switch, but found can't.  Or rather could order replacement remote switch from Streamlight but won't work with handheld.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Powerful
*by J***E on 20 December 2020*

Quite powerful for the size of the torch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Muy buena linterna
*by C***N on 9 January 2018*

Linterna de muy buena calidad con varios modos de iluminación. El cuerpo es robusto con acabados perfectos y el botón también se nota que es de buena calidad, no es como las típicas linternas que venden en grandes superficies o gasolineras. Merece la pena pagar ese extra
