Streamlight 75710 Stinger 425-Lumen LED Rechargeable Flashlight with Nimh Battery Without Charger, Black

Having used the large metal cased, baton-like, multi-D celled flashlights for years, I now am a convert to Streamlight flashlights. There is no substitute for the brightness of the LED, and the long battery life. In a compact size, the Streamlight Stingers are much easier to use in confined spaces (attics, crawl spaces, under cars) where one might need maneuverability. The compact size of the single batter is also good, as one can be stashed in a pocket and swapped out more easily than a handful of D cell batteries.

I have a better model of this light. This light is not as bright as I had hoped.

Very good flashlight

Good overall light; its easy to see why it is a choice of police departments. Mine has been dropped several times and subjected to cold temperatures to no adverse effect on the light. The strobe is a handy feature as well. I have the NIMH rechargeable version and it has given me no problems; I would recommend it to others.

I had one of these for 5 years and lost it on a job. Bought this one. Id buy 18 of them, if it came to it. This is simply THE best flashlight for the money. I am an HVAC DDC Tech and I find myself in pretty dark areas. This flashlight does not disappoint. I can get 2 days of fairly-constant use on the rechargeable battery. Get the belt loop sling while youre at it. Good stuff...

I have three of these mounted near access point to my home. Great everyday light. From working on my Jeep to those late night searches for my run away dog. This light provides all the lumens I need. Feels great in the hand and can take a beating. Ive used one in the power generation industry for 8 years and the light looks like sh*t, but still performs great and no one wants to steal it.

I just upgraded to this light! Ive had a incandescent Stinger for YEARS and felt it was time to update!! I work in Law Enforcement and these things are the best!! Ive dropped my old one an uncountable amount of times, and its held up to the abuse I put it through!! I decided to upgrade due to the battery saving capability of the LED! I kept blowing through batteries in my old one, and got tired of replacing them once a year!! (Yes, I use it A LOT!!! I work night shift) so it was time!! This light is GREAT!!! I recommend it to ANYONE!!!

I bought this flashlight for work. Being a mechanic the 3 levels of light output is good. Tough flashlight also. Have dropped it several times and is still working. My old streamlight with the led upgrade got very expensive due to the bulbs being of poor quality. Drop it once and the bulb burned out. This is a good flashlight. Does work with my old charger but always wanted the piggyback charger so got one. All in all I recommend it.

I needed a new flashlight for work and wanted to move away from my full size streamlight rechargeable. I owned a stinger 8 or so years ago but it had the xenon bulb and when the battery went bad I never replaced it. So this time I wanted to go with LED as the bulbs basically last forever and the xenon bulbs are expensive. All that said I wanted a good price and selection so I went to amazon. Unfortunately things got confusing from there. Amazon had so many stinger products with model numbers that had no corresponding reference on the Streamlight website so for my review instead of focusing on the light, lumens, body comp, etc, which had been covered before, I wanted to try to clear up the product numbers to make buying easier if you have already decided to buy a Stinger. (I spent hours trying to figure out what the model number meant because the pictures were basically worthless when deciding between certain models as well as included accessories) Basically what I determined is that the beginning three numbers tell what kind of light it is. 757 is the Stinger LED as shown on the Streamlight website. 758 is the Stinger DS LED and 75? anything else is the standard Stinger xenon bulb. The only anomaly is the DS HP, which follows no rhyme or reason but is easily distinguishable because of its large lamp portion. So the difference? The Stinger LED has one on/off switch on the handle and an rubber anti-roll ring that can be placed on the flashlight The Stinger LED DS had two fully functional on/off switches one on the body and one on the end. The light output is basically the same on both from what I can tell as are all other features. The Stinger LED HP had that large bulging portion that according to Steamlight gives it a long range targeting beam. Has only one on/off switch The classic stinger has the xenon bulb. All Stingers that I know of will charge with the battery in the flashlight in the charger. Other accessories are available of with the one that caused me the most confusion being the Piggyback holder. It is basically an additional holder for a battery only that attaches to a regular charger. Dont be fooled by the fast charger thing. As far as I can tell all Stinger chargers will charge in fast mode as well as regular mode (even the piggyback) Now for accessories. Here it is to the best of my ability is the list for LED lights only. It is not exhaustive and is a guide only Model 75710-LED flashlight only, no battery 75711-LED with AC charger only 75712-LED with DC only 75713-LED flashlight only with battery 75732-LED with AC, DC, and piggyback. Has only one cradle with the piggyback attached but has two different wires, one DC and on AC. Includes two batteries 75735 AC ad DC chargers only indicates it has two cradles but unknown. 75810-DS Flashlight only no battery 75812 DS and DC charger only 75813-DS with AC and DC charger 75816-DS AC/DC with Piggyback 75832-DS with AC/ DC charger and Piggyback 75835 -DS with AC/ DC charger 75836 DS with AC and piggyback charger 75760-HP flashlight only with battery 75761-HP with AC charger only 75763-HP with AC and DC chargers 75782-HP with AC, DC, and Piggyback 75856-HP with AC, DC, and Piggyback 75860-HP only with battery 75861-HP with AC charger 75862-HP with DC charger only 75863-HP with AC and DC charger 75882-HP with unknown 75885-HP with AC and DC charger I bought the 75732 because I did not need the end cap. I dont have any knowledge of how many batteries or charger cradles (other then the one I bought) are included with each model because it does not say on the web pages as far as I can tell. I think that in the end you should assume you get one battery and one charging cradle with two cords AC and DC then if you get more it is a bonus. Hope this review helps.

I use this flashlight everyday at my job and I have never had it fail on me. I tend to drop it a lot and have used it during monsoons where it and I get completely soaked but it keeps on ticking. I have owned two of these flashlights in about 6 years at my job and the only reason I had to buy a second one (after about 3 years of use for the first) is because I dropped it somewhere in the desert while riding a quad and I was unable to locate it afterwards. The battery life is as advertised and I never noticed a reduction in charge after years of use. I would recommend this flashlight to anyone that is looking for a good flashlight that can take a beating and last for years.
