64% appreciated its adjustable beam focus
I am extremely satisfied with the overall performance of the Streamlight 66601 MicroStream 250-Lumen EDC Ultra-Compact Flashlight. It has powerful illumination, a compact design, a USB rechargeable battery, and durable construction.
The pocket or belt clip is solid, bendable, and reversible, indicating adjustability.
73% appreciated its long-lasting battery life, but 27% experienced quick drainage
I really like this flashlight as it has good light output for its size and decent battery life.
After a few days of careful use, the flashlight stopped working and could not hold a constant beam. It died in less than a month.
The flashlight was bright but only lasted for a few minutes.
After being fully charged, my flashlight starts to flicker or shut off almost immediately.
71% were satisfied with its brightness, while 29% found it dim
The standout feature of this flashlight is its impressive brightness. The MicroStream delivers 250 lumens of light output, providing sufficient brightness for a wide range of tasks.
The light is small, lightweight and bright, but the switch button requires excessive force to click.
I would like the light to be brighter.
The light flickers and surges brighter to dimmer.

72% praised for its rugged construction, but 28% experienced durability issues
After a few days of careful use, the flashlight started flickering and could not hold a constant beam. It died after less than a month of my use.
I find the product unreliable.
69% liked its comfortable grip and handling, though 31% found it awkward
The handheld flashlight is easy to carry around due to its compact and lightweight size.
The flashlight is ergonomically designed to fit in the palm, jeans change pocket, and the rim of a ball cap.
I suggest an alternative product with a more ergonomic button as the current one requires excessive force to click.
66% liked the intuitive switch and interface, but 34% found it confusing
I have personally experienced that the switch button requires excessive force to click compared to another product.
Activating the switch is almost a two-handed endeavor and difficult.
I found it unacceptable that the switch required excessive pressure to activate.
The light turns on low first and then I have to double click the button to turn it on high. It rarely works for me and I have to spend time trying to get it to switch to high. It's annoying.
81% liked its lightweight and compact design
The handheld flashlight is very small and lightweight, and I will forget it is there until needed.
