About Streamlight 88811 Wedge 300-Lumen Slim Everyday Carry Flashlight
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
79% appreciated its adjustable beam focus, although 21% found it limited
This light is perfect for short distance, very wide angle illumination.
The shape of this handheld flashlight makes it perfect to slip into a molle strap and clip it in place.
I expected the flashlight to have better alignment between the housing halves.
88% appreciated its long-lasting battery life
When I first got the handheld flashlight, the battery life was great and I could use it for about four hours. Now that I don't use it as much, I don't have to charge it every day.
89% were satisfied with its brightness, while 11% found it dim
The flashlight is bright but not suitable for throwing light at a great distance. It's better for things closer to me, maybe 20 feet away.
I have noticed that the flashlight beam is not as expected. It claims 300 to 1000 lumens, but it illuminates a wide area like a flood light.
89% praised for its rugged construction, but 11% experienced durability issues
The light is still functional and durable even after being dropped and stepped on multiple times.
The flashlight has a fatal flaw of not having a dust cap for the USB C plug and rapidly fills with debris. I suggest buying a cover for like $5 on Amazon, which solves the problem.
88% liked its comfortable grip and handling, though 12% found it awkward
I typically carry a small knife and flashlight in my coin pocket to avoid scratching my hands or catching my shirt on the clip every time I reach for change or my phone.
88% liked the intuitive switch and interface, but 12% found it confusing
The flashlight is too big and the on-off switch and charging port are in poor locations.
I have noticed that the light switch is the only flaw in the light. My pants pocket has gotten hot and I found the light turned on. There is no way to lock out the switch to prevent the light from accidentally turning on.
After two months of use, the on/off switch is already sticking.
My only complaint with the flashlight is that sometimes the switch feels gritty and gets hard to push.
91% appreciated its water and shock resistance, but 9% experienced issues
For me, it's a must to be able to use the flashlight after being submerged in murky water.
I have been carrying the flashlight every day for six months and it has some dirt on it, but I like where it gives it more character.
I am unsure about the water resistance of the light as it has not been tested in water or submerged.
91% liked its lightweight and compact design
I appreciate a lot of function for the weight and size of something for everyday carry, and this product goes above and beyond my standards.
I estimated that the normal light setting throws 300 lumens for about 50-60 yards from a small light.
I love how small and portable this flashlight is, and how easily it can be clipped in my side pocket corner, out of the way from catching on everything like my old Streamlight Stingers did.
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.
I have found that these lights are very tough and can withstand direct hits to the concrete. Even after being dropped many times, they still shine bright, unlike other lights I have used that usually don't pass the drop test.
