Reviews & Ratings for Streamlight ProTac 1L-1AA Ultra-Compact Flashlight — 42 reviews — Page 1

Everybody knows Streamlight makes good stuff. This one is no different. It’s exactly what I was looking for.

I alway carry a flashlight with me as part of my Every Day Carry (EDC) and this little light pulls its weight. Tough, bright, and and reliable. Pick one up while they are on sale.

Only have light a few days. Everything working as advertised so far. Build quality is good. Time and use will tell.

I love this little flashlight. I keep it in my truck for when needed on the job. Nice and small but very bright. I have several but bought this one because I Lost the old one somewhere . I also like the dual fuel system

This light is part of my EDC. I use the $h!# out of this light. It gets used at work constantly also for weld inspection. I've cycled the on-off button thousands of times by now, dropped it on steel and concrete, it lives in my pocket during welding and grinding, it's the most used part of my EDC. The size is just right in my opinion. I use AA batteries in it for the most part and find the brightness and battery life to be adequate. Can't be happier with this light.

I bought this light at a local store in May 2022 after seeing it recommended online. It has earned a permanent spot in my left pocket on the daily. It gets submerged, bashed, shaken and dropped frequently with no problems thus far. I can now read labels in the dark, spot critters on the side of the road, point at places, inspect tools and parts better, search for dropped things on the ground, the list goes on. I have been amazed at the utility this little light gives me.

Of course, any EDC light will perform the tasks above. But what this makes this light unique is that it will run on a AA battery or a 123-size battery. In fact, it will run on a AAA battery too in a pinch. The way it manages this is by having the bottom of the battery compartment travel on a spring to keep pressure on whatever size battery you have in there. The light itself is solid and the manual is helpful. I've used this light a lot over the past few months, and here are some things I've learned:

-The output is a proper, bright 300 lumens, though the color is on the colder side.
-The clip comes off with a little determination.
-The O-ring should be lubricated periodically (per the manual, read it).
-This light is low profile and doesn't weigh much. You could say "this light is light!"
-A CR123 battery will last me about a month of frequent use.
-After a battery is done, the flashlight goes into "limp" mode where the output is the same for high and low settings. It doesn't reduce over time, so you g...

Very good for seeing quite a ways! Flashlight purchased to keep an eye on my dog. Also purchased two more flashlights as Christmas gifts! Completely satisfied with my choices! The coyote color I think is better as it is a better camouflaged item. Very nice that flashlight has ability to accept two different flashlight batteries. always wanted a good flashifht

This light is just about the perfect size for everyday carry. Not too small that it is difficult to operate for someone like me that has had multiple hand surgeries and has difficulty grasping small objects; not too big to be a PIA to carry. Bright beam on high; strobe for distracting an assailant; low power is still bright enough for finding your way around in the dark while conserving battery power.

Not super powerful but exceptional for its size. Was able to attach included pouch to molle on my gear. This is very compact and lightweight. Love that you can use AA and CR123 batteries. Coworkers made fun of me when I clipped it to my hat...until they were stuck using their lights in hand.

Great little light. Dual power options makes this my go to light. The tap function to set the mode is a nice feature. Solid construction, the clip is firm. The anti-roll cap is probably the only part that isn't fantastic. The clip does a better job at stopping it from rolling. That's a minor thing on an otherwise great light. I will look to add a couple more to my hunting and fishing kits.
