I've wanted to like Streamlight for a long time but three of the four Streamlight products I own have all shit the bed. Just can't see buying any more when a few more dollars gets me a light that lasts.

With a new LED upgrade my 10 year old 9P still rocks as a solid go-to light.
This pretty much sums up my experience. I don't exactly appreciate SF prices, but nothing pisses me off more than a light that doesn't work when you need it. I just pony up for these necessities now.
