Only have a pic of my UTG handy right now.....Its the favorite one i have right now....don't recall model right off

It has High/Med/Low, strobe and SOS settings.......bright as hell and been very reliable.....

I've beat and banged this thing around, had it in the mud, rain, constantly rolling around in the truck and it's held up great.....battery life is good too.........use it alot and only had to change batteries recently because I accidentally left it on.........

Sure it's not the best light on the market, but a damn good option if you want a good light for $50-$60 range

Surprised the UTG is holding up well. Is it LED? For that same $60ish I am looking at the streamlight super tac x. The last thing I need is another light but wtf.

The 3 streamlights I posted are a pretty ideal combo. The microstream can clip on a hat for hands free. The stylus is great for all lighting tasks and the pt2l is for personal defense. All 3 can be had for about $80 retail.

This is most of my lights but by no means all. I got them so spread out these were just the easy to grab ones. The Streamlight Stylus Pro is my main light I use around the house. The Olight T-10 is my EDC light. 210 Lumens. Has 3 brightnesses and strobe. The Brinkman is the only non LED in the pile. I've had it for many years and it's just super durable. The Maglite Solitaire has a bulb in it that costs 3 times what the light does LOL. It's a Teklite LT-3. Really get an amazing amount of light out of that little SOB with that bulb.

Here are mine. The Streamlight Ultrastinger gets used daily and is ten years old. I have replaced the battery once and upgraded the head to an LED head but that's it.

Is the teklite a direct replacement or does it require moding the light?

Plug and play. It's still a tiny light so don't expect miracles. Not even sure it's worth the 20 bucks but It is a lot better than the original. One thing of note is after you change the bulb the head no longer screws down all the way as the new bulb base is thicker. Doesn't effect functionality.
