Streamlight is at it again with new offerings of the company's "HL" version of rechargeable flashlights. The Streamlight Strion LED HL made its debut recently and features, among other things, upgraded LEDs over the previous generation that produce a blinding amount of light in a very compact package.
This little light is built to the standards Streamlight is known for: machined and anodized aircraft aluminum with seals for IPX4 water resistance and simple, robust tailcap controls. This is a rechargeable light with a claimed runtime of one hour on the brightest of three settings and more than three hours on the lowest. Streamlight's rechargeable Lithium Ion technology uses "regulated runtime" so your light will lose power quickly at the end of the battery's life rather than dimming gradually over time. This lets you get the light's full potential through almost the entire charge.
