I have this flashlight. It’s great. Wonderfully simple. Amazing light. The batteries it comes with are like 2300 mah. Buy higher capacity 3500 mah 18650’s. The only con of this flashlight is that you have to take the batteries out of the flashlight to charge. Keep some batteries in a quick charger ready to go and you can just swap them out.

This is an honest question and this seems to be extremely common and it perplexes me, but in every single review video there seems to be a good amount of people who have already purchased the item being reviewed and then they all come to the comments and say how amazing it is and then it just makes me wonder why the hell are you watching a review video if you've already purchased it and already have your own opinion on it?....... I mean I'm watching the videos because I'm shopping around and I've yet to spend the money on a specific light and I want to see how they all compare... but once I've made my decision and made the purchase I really don't care what other people have to say because I've already chosen one and I'll use it myself and figure out how much I like it. But I don't understand why somebody would spend money on something and then sit around listening to other people's opinions about it..... can you explain the mindset of watching people review something that you already own?..... I could understand wanting to see reviews of its competition or alternatives to what you have but I don't understand watching reviews on what you already own that's like buying a pair of shoes and then asking people how they feel after you already bought them. Just put them on and find out for yourself why you asking other people how they feel when you already own them? I just don't get it lol.😂 Help me understand this phenomenon in these review videos.

@cfltitan
@cfltitan 5 лет назад
Jeff Gordon pretty good. I'd say right on par with my smaller 1,000 lumen light with just one of the 18650 rechargeable batteries. The 5x uses two of those. According to the box and the owners manual it's rated at an hour on high. I can believe it because I've used it for a couple night shifts and it didn't die before I recharged them. I also really like the charger cable that's included. It's has dual micro USB heads on it so you can charge both batteries at the same time. Each battery has a tiny red and green led that lights up in the head of the battery. It glows red when it's charging and green when it's charged. Overall I LOVE the light and there's no video or words that can show just how bright it is in person. It's truly mind boggling.

Jeff Gordon no problem at all. With them being genuine streamlight batteries I don't believe for a second that they die that fast. I know for sure mine don't. Maybe they didn't charge them out of the box?? Check out primary arms to buy it at. They have the best price by far last time I looked and they have super fast shipping.

Planning to buy one of these. I have tons of cr123 to use up as backup. Only downside I see is 2600 mah capacity of batteries that comes with it so I will upgrade to 3500 mah. Most of my Surefire flashlights tend to throttle down the lumens after a couple minutes so like that this stays brighter for longer. I have protac 1aa/123 and like it alot. I am using aa size 3 volt batteries I bought over 10 years ago and it is very bright for size. Thank you for in depth review and glad to see another commenter say other 18650 batteries will work.

With rechargeable 3500 mah 18650 nite core batteries, it is more cost effective than 123s but the battery life is not very great. But that was expected as it is a high drain device. Highly recommend streamlight.

Would Streamlight repair it and how much did it cost (I'm assuming drop tests are not covered under warranty)?

Supposed to be Cree C4, or at least most of the batches should be. LED brands in the big name flashlights are mostly gobblygook if they're not outright saying Cree because the majority of them are Cree's resold by other distributors anyway. Cree C4 is actually not a model of LED but a bin (quality and output standard) for several models, which can vary wildly in color temp and output. C4 is generally the highest bin that is made in large quantities, so pretty much every company just labels theirs as C4 regardless.

@wrxified
@wrxified 3 года назад
I have a technical question for the crew. I'm confused by the rated lumens and what type of trickery is going on to make the light. Streamlight rates the output with the rechargeable 18650's higher than with cr123a's. How does that make sense? 18650's have a max output of 4.2v (3.7v nominal). So 2 of them is 8.4v max (7.4v nominal). CR123a batteries have a max of 3v so 12v total. Seems logical to think the CR123a's would be a higher output.
@Weo510
@Weo510 3 года назад
I think these higher lumen lights rely on the higher amps that some Li rechargeables allow. So, even with less voltage, the current draw is high enough to yield significantly more power (watts) than the 4xCR123's at their higher voltage.

I get it that the light is bright, but even if it was daylight I don’t think you would be able to tell the difference between a Glock 19 vs a Glock 21 at 130ft.

I don't understand 3500 for the 18650 but 2500 for the cr123.. why is there a difference I own this light but I don't understand why there is a difference. Currently using mine with 18650 orbitron batteries.

@@poorchristopher15 That sucks. I guess it makes sense though; too many people must have been using poor quality batteries, using non protected cells, or flat top batteries thinking all 18650 batteries were the same like anything labeled AA, which has a standard. Streamlight didn't want to deal with the confusion and customer complaints that may have arisen from that. They need to come out with a higher mAh battery.

I just bought 1 of those HL5-x, I can't wait I bought a supposed 90,000 lumin from Amazon and that 39$ flashlight only lasted for a month or so I think I recharged it like 3 or 4 times it stopped working. I've also bought monster flashlight in the past don't waste your money on those either they say they have a warranty but when I sent mine in they sent it back in the same condition NOT WORKING, so I called thier customer service the guy told me I may need to jump start it, what a jerk off
