Tools and Hardware Reviews of Streamlight 51002 TT-3C 3 C-Cell Xenon/6-LED Twin-Task Flashlight, Black
Customer Review: Good, but not great
Summary: 3 Stars
Flashlight works well, but is not as bright as I had hoped for. I use Pelican Super Sabrelights at work, and was hoping that this flashlight would have the same intensity and focal point as the Pelican but it doesn't. LED's aren't as bright as I had hoped either.Customer Review: Honeymoon over quickly
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought the Streamlight 51002 and was immediately impressed by the construction and how it felt in hand. The honeymoon was over quickly as I pushed the switch (too stiff), experienced the beam (not bright by today's standards, three modes: blue, more blue and yellowish), and the need to cycle through all three modes any time the flashlight is used.
Not overly impressed I then purchased the Palm Blaze 3C cells K23C Luxeon K2 6W LED Police Flashlight Baton. I cannot say enough about the beam color (white, not blue which is so common), intensity and the switch logic (most likely micro processor controlled) on the Palm Blaze 3C. I wish it felt more like the Streamlight, but they got the most important part right.
On the Palm Blaze 3C you push the switch once for high, again quickly for low, or press and hold until it enters flash mode. Once you are in any mode for a few seconds, press once for off. Simple. The switch itself could be more pronounced as on the Streamlight), but tactily, it's just right.
I highly recommend the Palm Blaze, but wish it had the asthetics of the Streamlight.
Customer Review: Disappointed in output
Summary: 2 Stars
This light is build very well but the output is disappointing at best. LED out is quite blue in color and not very bright by todays standards. The xenon is also dim and not focused. Not useful outdoors as light output does not project well at all. Looking for a CREE or K2 mod.
