Metal hand crank flashlight My husband loves the hand crank flashlights, but gets aggravated with the plastic ones that break so easily. Does a metal one exist?

that would be serving the customer interests and companies don't want to do that, now do they

Jessica, would suggest either going to E-Bay for a second hand charger or go to Streamlite's Web Site for chargers. The chargers are cheap as compared to the cost of the Stinger Flashlight. Also if there is a store in your area that sells equipment for Fire, EMS and Law Enforcement then give them a try.

What is the problem with switch on the first flashlight.? I bought two more of these of these flashlights the first one worked fine for a week so I ordered two more by the time I got the second order the first flashlight would go on sometimes by pushing the button and other times it wouldn't. And then about a week later I received he other two flashlights. They are very well made machine but I think the switch on the bottom is no problem. I noticed a few other feedbacks that I wasn't the only one that had a problem with the on-off button please answer thank you.

My opinion is...... It is a cheap piece of junk. I had problems with it from the moment I got it out of the package. Issues involving springs and O rings tore as soon as I took it apart. Don't waste money on it for a flashlight. Makes a good tire knocker though. Lol

My son used a "Streamlight 88850 Polytac LED Flashlight with Lithium batteries/Black" which is sold on Amazon I believe and runs around $40 or so. Hope that helps.

Howdy, Check the spring I wrote about in the review. When I had mine I was walking along and light quit working. When I took out the batteries and looked into the flashlight the spring that was soldered to the LED circuit board had the solder break and the spring was just laying there. I had to resolder the spring to the board. Has been working fine ever since. I hope this helps. I guess we should all just send them back and then maybe the manufacture would fix the soldering problem they have.

I don't carry my flashlight it's in a tool box, but i have had one made for another light, years ago, by a friend of mine. You might have to do the same.

Sorry, I dont know the answer to that question. I really like the flashlight. It has all the power and brightness I could want.

I purchased mine last spring and the handle was made of both metal and plastic. The piece you grip is plastic while the sides that go to the tool are metal. It also rotates easily around the tool which I thought would be a problem but it actually was really convenient I thought. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again for the price, especially compared to name brand electric jackhammers. I've used it to rip up a basement floor, patio, and sidewalk. All with no issues. Sorry this is more info, I've just been really pleased with this tool.

I have both flashlights and both are really good lights. I actually use the mag light though while working. The other is in my car as a back up.

Unscrew the magnetic end of the flashlight. It might take some effort the first time so use pliars if necessary. Once loose it is self evident how to replace the batteries.

I tried electrical tape (for some resistance to keep them from popping out) but it didn't work. Once they come apart, might as well consider it a handheld flashlight.

I get the same thing. Basically I just think that this isnt a very good flashlight. I would certainly not rely on it. I would never recommend that anyone buy this flashlight. Also really surprised that so many of the reviews are positive for this flashlights. There are so many issues with it. What an awful flashlight.

I spoke to my brother-in-law and he drilled a hole in various tables (he moves the lamp around a lot) and was able to put the "screw" part in those holes and tighten the clamp really tight. All parts are metal, not plastic. He thinks it is a really good product. I hope this helps you and sorry for the delay.

I do not know a lot of flashlights have this battery, Idea,,,take the flashlight to Walmart Jewelry n Dept/ they can easily get the battery out replace ..find out what battery you need then buy from Amazon thereafter-- as the prices are much better on Amazon!

It's pretty durable. Ours has been dropped and knocked off the table numerous times. I'm pretty impressed with it. We've even used it as a flashlight on more than one occasion :)

Sorry but i have no idea where to get what you're looking for. The exact same thing happened to my Fenix led flashlight. I recommend purchasing a Maglite led or trying some other product with excellent reviews.
