The strobe function has a run time of up to five hours and 30 minutes.The rechargeable three-cell, 3.6-volt sub-C nickel-cadmium battery (included) saves you time and money and can be recharged up to 1,000 times (charger included). It will steady charge in ten hours, or in two and a half hours on an optional fast, or PiggyBack, charger. The Advantages of LEDs An LED is ideal for lights that are used often and over an extended period of time. You don't have to worry about breaking the light, since there is no glass or filament, and you rarely have to replace LEDs because they can last a lifetime. Save time and money on batteries as well--they will last much longer with an LED than with a regular light bulb. C4 Technology Provides Powerful Illumination With Streamlight's specially engineered reflector and innovative C4 technology, the Stinger DS features a brighter, more powerful light than any prior LED on the market. C4 Photonic Crystal technology almost triples the brightness and creates an intense beam that pierces darkness. Optimized electronics provide regulated intensity, and the deep-dish parabolic reflector produces a tight beam with optimum peripheral illumination to aid in navigation. The C4 LED is impervious to shock and has a 50,000-hour lifetime. Multi-Function Push Button for Convenient Operation The Stinger DS feature dual-switch technology. Designed for long life and tested at one million actuations, the multi-function, on/off push-button switches are located at the head and tail cap. Convenient and easy to use, each switch independently clicks through all light modes--high beam, medium beam, low beam, or strobe. Durably Constructed for Use in Extreme Conditions Machined from solid, aircraft-grade aluminum, the Stinger DS features a nonslip, rubberized grip for increased comfort and an unbreakable and scratch-resistant polycarbonate lens. It is ideal for use in automotive, hardware, law enforcement, security, sporting, and outdoor applications. The Streamlight Stinger DS LED Flashlight is backed by a manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Streamlight 75813 Stinger DS C4 LED Flashlight with AC/DC Steady Charge, BlackCustomer Review: Great upgrade to the regular Stinger Summary: 5 Stars
Let's face it, The future lies in LED lights now, rather than on incandescent xenon lights. The Streamlight Stinger DS with C4 LED would be the perfect candidate to replace your old Stinger.
Pros:
-This is a LED LIGHT so it uses less energy, generates less heat, and thus lasts a longer time than incandescent models.
-The LED module is a C4 LED, so it is much brighter than regular LEDs and it has a better "throw" than incandescent lights.
-It has two switches, one below the reflector head, and the other one on the tailcap. This allows you to use it in "patrol mode" or in "tactical mode."
-It is made to the same standards as the old Stingers, so you get that "solid" metal feel, except that this light comes with rubber in the middle for enhanced grip.
-Anti-roll ring included
-Has several output modes, thus allowing you to bargain between brightness and time the battery lasts. The flashlight also has a Strobe mode, which can be used to disorient a subject if the light is ever needed for self defense.
-**This light says it is rated at 80 lumens, but with the new C4 technology, the lumen rating has escalated to about 140. This makes it slightly brighter than the Pelican 7060, and both lights have a far-reaching throw. You'll be happy with either this light or the Pelican 7060, but I'd recommend this light to those who prefer a metallic body (since 7060 is made of hard polymer plastic), and the Stinger LED DS is a few bucks less expensive, and has more accessories available to you.
Cons:
Not that many cons. The only bad thing is that they could have used a better reflector to get a "perfect" circle in the central beam. If you've ever had a Pelican 7060, you will know what I mean by "perfect circle." However, if you've never had a Pelican 7060, you will not even notice this tiny flaw.
Overall it's a great light to use on duty, or to carry in the car, or for personal use. It's a very good investment, because you will never need to buy batteries for it.
