Reviews & Ratings for Streamlight MicroStream LED Pen Light w/ 45 Lumen Output — 26 reviews — Page 1

Easy to carry, you can clip it to your hat, light could be a little brighter but it's okay.

I love this light. So much so that I’ve bought 3 because I’ve managed to lose a couple others. These lights put out crazy amounts of light for how small they are. I’ll never buy or use a headlamp again. The clip on the light makes them obsolete because this is so much lighter and versatile. I use it when I’m getting hunting gear rounded up early in the AM, use it for work during dark hours, and use it when I’m working on vehicles.

Super handy and easily fits in any pocket. Everyone used to kid me about carrying a flashlight all-the-time! Stopped when the guys got their own! Isn’t super bright but great for short range use!

Received mine as a gift seven years ago.

It’s not waterproof. Accidentally got it wet. Dried-itself in about a week. Works fine.

I bought this flashlight to carry with me at work or where ever else I want a small easy to carry light. I clip it on/in my pocket and I don't even know it is there. It is typical Streamlght top quality and while not super bright like a tactical light, it is outstanding for a very small flashlight.

The light is awesome I carry it with me everywhere and I do mean everywhere this is a replacement for one I lost I have been carrying one with me for the past five years great little amazing light for how small it is .

I had been using a generic, big-box-store-bought light but I grew tired of the large bevel. This is small, lightweight, and bright. Works well enough for peering into the back of a truck. Imtalking lite to moderate dock receiving use, not for constant inspections or custom work. Uses a trip A battery.

The Streamlight Microstream is a surprisingly powerful for its size, and it runs on readily-available AA batteries. It has a button-switch on the end-cap for easy one-hand activation, and it comes with a handy lanyard so that you can hang it around your neck when you need to have both hands free. It's a great little light to keep in your pocket all the time for those moments when you unexpectedly need a light.

I was skeptical when I bought the first one of these amazing little gems. Now I seem to keep buying more after giving them away to family and friends. Why? There can always be one clipped into a pocket, ready for use. They are adequately bright for most any emergency. The switch requires a positive push to actuate so I have NEVER had one turned on and the battery expended by accident. They are rugged with a durable finish, waterproof (a friend has run his thru the washer, clipped into his coveralls, three times that I know of. Without harm.), and contrary to some reviews I have seen, mine have survived some pretty hard impacts without notice or even surface damage. But the best recommendation is that they are handy enough that mine is almost always on my person when I need it. Super Gear!

I use this flashlight more than any other flashlight that I own. I am a security officer for Tennessee State and work nights, so I always need a flashlight on me. For the size, this flashlight is surprisingly bright. I can comfortably walk around a completely pitch black warehouse about the size of a basketball court and be happy with the light output of this flashlight. Any indoor or outdoor space larger than that and I feel that this light would be inadequate. The beam is concentrated well with no artifacts in the light (an artifact being the dark spot that is common with most Mag-Lites). It fits in my front shirt pocket just like a pen would. The battery life is ok- I usually like to change it after about an hour of continuous use. I don't think the 2.5 hour runtime given by Streamlight is realistic.

One issue the accuracy of the description: This website claims that there are high and low output settings for this flashlight. This is not true- only one power setting is available and Streamlight's website with the product documentation for the Microstream can confirm that.

This flashlight is well worth the money. The ratio of the flashlight's light output to size cannot be beat. It is a very bright flashlight for needing only one AAA battery. I promise you will not be disappointed.

great little light. perfect for keeping in your pocket or glove box.
