FlashlightReviews.com provides the most detailed and objective review of the Streamlight ProPolymer 3C flashlight, basing its rating and recommendation on extensive technical tests. We found the most owner-written reviews and ratings at Amazon.com, but also found useful comments from owners - with both praise and criticism - at two other retail sites, Optics Planet and ProfessionalEquipment.com.
Reviews say the 10-inch Streamlight ProPolymer 3C Luxeon LED is the best flashlight for general household use. It uses three C batteries, yet puts out as much light as a bigger, heavier incandescent-bulb MagLite 3D. A voltage regulator keeps the light bright much longer than on a MagLite, and reviews say the single level of light is good for intermediate-range tasks such as cooking or changing a tire. The flashlight comes with a clip and lanyard, and it carries a lifetime warranty. For general household use, reviews also recommend the Fenix P2D-CE (*est. $55), which is smaller and has long runtime, but costs much more.
