TigerLight
8"
Gold Series Rechargeable Flashlight
The
TigerLight is a machined aluminum rechargeable flashlight that uses
NiMH batteries and
is type III Hard Anodized. It has a 1
hour runtime and a pre-focused lamp module.
The TigerLight comes
serial numbered with a limited lifetime warranty and is also
available
with built in pepper spray. The version shown
does not have pepper spray capability.
The
tailcap is sealed in place and the on/off push button switch is on
the side of the light near the tailcap.
Instead of typical
knurling, the TigerLight has a rough textured grip, similar to
texture of grip tape.
It's not extremely grippy, but it works
very nice.
The
TigerLight clamps securely in the charger in a bezel down position.
Charge time is 10 hours and both AC & DC adapters are
included.
To replace the bulb or the rechargeable battery pack,
the lens cap unscrews
to allow access to the inside of the
TigerLight.
The
TigerLight is much shorter (8") than the Streamlight
Ultrastinger (11.5")
making it easier to carry in a coat
pocket or a duty belt.
The TigerLight is also brighter than the
Ultrastinger,
with a more intense hotspot and more side spill
secondary light.
This light easily competes with the Magcharger &
Ultrastinger and is smaller than both of them.
It also holds it's
own against the Surefire 10X dominator. Not in total light output,
but in run-time
and brightness over the 10X with the optional 110
lumen lamp. The 10X with high beam is brighter,
but only
for a short 15 minutes and in a flood type output were as the
Tigherlight beam is more
concentrated. Out throwing even
the 10X on high, giving the Tigerlight more range overall.
Here are some outdoor beamshots at ~45 feet: 
Here
are some comparison photos of the Steamlight UltraStinger &
TigerLight.
The top two pictures are at ~50 feet. Notice
how the TigerLight not only has a
greater hotspot at that range,
but it also emits more surround light.
