2 year review - Streamlight MicroStream USB Rechargeable Bright Small LED Flashlight

I've had this thing for 2 years now and love it. I've carried it almost every day since then and it's been exactly what I want in an edc flashlight. I've given these as gifts to a couple guys who also carry them everyday and love them. I don't carry a weapon mounted light on my edc pistol so I opted for the coyote tan version. I can shoot with this handheld light just fine. It isn't an ideal light for handheld shooting techniques but it is a light that I'm willing to carry on my person all the time. I learned quick to not carry this with the pocket clip. The pocket clip will get snagged on everything and bend out easily (don't have this issue with my pocket knives). I still keep the pocket clip on the light however I just carry it inside the pocket now which is just fine. The light is durable too. Other than some honest wear of the aluminum it's just fine. I've had this thing accidentally submerged with no issues. I've washed it off in the sink after getting deer blood on it, no problem. I was even a bit tuned up one night around the campfire and accidentally threw the light in the fire along with a piece of firewood. Plucked it out of the fire quick with no damage. Yes there are other options, some even brighter and smaller. I like this light because it's simple, a good size, and because bright is the default setting every time I click the tail cap. It also holds it's charge for a good long while. In two years I've for sure charged it less than 10 times. Would recommend.
