Streamlight 44911 WayPoint 400 Rechargeable 1400-Lumen Long Range Pistol-Grip Spotlight with 120V AC Charger and Polymer Holder/Mount, Black

Awesome light, keeps a good charge. Ive used it on a few fires now and its durable as Stream light always is.

As others have commented, the Waypoint is an exceptionally bright, compact source of light. Seems tight and well-put-together in all regards. I am sure it would be right at home in a law enforcement or rescue context. So far I am quite happy. I will place it immediately between the shifter and front seat of my pickup, where it will replace a Brinkmann Blue Max Marine Spotlight that has been there across two trucks, many replacement batteries, and 16 years. Because of its size, this light will fit the space BETTER. I doubt that I'll have any use for the "mounting bracket" that is made of black plastic and only provides minimal protection and support. (Wouldn't want to screw it down anywhere -- looks like the plastic would flex too much and maybe rip if you pushed the lamp in too firmly or pulled it out fast. However, the light can "wear" the mounting molding like a jacket -- at least this may keep the lens clean and un-scuffed.) There are two steel wire loops on top of the unit (I suppose for a shoulder strap -- unit is light enough that this will never be an option I purchase.) However, the wrist lanyard and the rubberized tube through which it is threaded are a nice touch. I will definitely use these, as well as the cord-lock that cinches the lanyard and keeps it from sliding over your hand. The Brinkmann was unbelievably bright and penetrating (although it got quite hot and had a short use time -- about 40 minutes -- on a full charge). I mention this because I have already used the Streamlight for about two hours on medium brightness and there has been no discernible reduction in its brightness. It also gets a bit warm, but NOTHING like the halogen bulb of its predecessor. This unit is much lighter, nearly as bright as the Brinkmann, water-proof, and offers a brightness-selector switch, also usable to control battery life. Most of these features are commonplace now, but were unavailable when the Blue Max was bought; I like all of them. Manufacturer's packaging is "minimalist," but sufficient to protect contents. 110-V charger is small, unobtrusive, and functions well. Instructions said to expect a four-hour initial charge time; the green fully-charged indicator lit after about 1 hour. The flip-up top handle doubles as an adjustable base if you invert the unit. Adjustments on it are close together, giving you many angles from which to choose. The pivot for this base is TIGHT and seems as if it will not slip from one angle to another. I was surprised by the brevity of the owner's manual -- 1 sheet, glossy, folded into a "pamphlet" containing information in multiple languages. I wonder about the Li battery(ies). Nothing in the manual about replacement, and I tend to keep lights for decades (note beginning of review). A factory-replacement only part? I guess I'll find out after about 700 of the 800 promised recharges, LOL. On the whole, this has earned each of its 5 stars. Goodbye, "Old Blue Eye!"

It is bright. Seriously bright. It is not a giant thing like others are. It is ruggedized and will withstand several drops. It has three brightness settings, flashlight, bright flashlight, and focused fusion reactor. I bought this to replace an earlier version of the same light. I believe the earlier one was rated in the 500 Lumen range and that was the first "artificial sun". That one's battery died after a couple years (understandable), but Streamlight does not offer replacement batteries. Is this one brighter? Probably. I don't have a battery for my old one to compare and it's been dead for a year or so. If I don't come up with a battery solution to this when it finally dies in a couple years, I'll probably buy the most current version of this. There are several accessories available. This one came with a bracket/holster thing to mount in your vehicle. My old one had a red filter and a green filter that attached to the front. It comes with a wrist lanyard that allows you to carry other stuff while this thing dangles, but I wouldn't recommend doing that with it on. It's small enough that I usually chuck it in my backpack.

I live way out in the country on a 50-acre ranch. The area around the houses and outbuildings is at least 2-acres. On a moonless night, it is pitch black as far as you can see. I have searched for new-born calves at night in the middle of 12-acre pastures. I've fixed fence-lines at midnight in the rain, my work lit by my Tahoe headlights. I've used Maglites for years, recently stepping up my game with small(er) Streamlight and Coast LED products. Flashlights see hard-use on my ranch. I just tested this thing out and it is flat-out amazing. A literally stunning beam of light. It lights up things at a quarter-mile like daylight. It throws a tight beam further than I can see clearly, this spotlight is better than my vision. 5-hour run-time on high-power, which is considerably more than most hand-held flashlights. I own ponds and this flashlight floats. Feels like a very solid piece in the hand, yet it is a relatively light weight. I love how simple it is to use. It stays on when you pull the trigger, goes back off with another little squeeze. There is a little switch which sets what you want the light to do, strobe, high, or low. Three modes, one switch, one trigger. Nothing fancy, nothing to program or learn. Basic, intuitive and very, very functional. The low-power setting and built-in aiming stand would be perfect for fixing a flat tire or repairing a fence in the dark. Perhaps walking between my buildings. The high-power setting is perfect for long-distance sight and searching. Outrageously impressive performance. The strobe might be good for signaling low flying aircraft? Cool feature, not sure I'll need it, but it's certainly not a negative to have included. Ideal flashlight if you really need to see a long way at night and have to cover a good bit of distance. Add in Streamlights reputation for quality, warranty, and the current 4.9 star Amazon rating, and I could not be happier nor more impressed. I will be recommending this light to friends.

I cannot express how much I love this light! The Streamlight Waypoint 400 is insanely bright — bright enough to see through my coworkers' excuses! It's perfect for covering multiple acres, and I use it regularly on large properties. It’s tough, waterproof, and built to last. The battery life is excellent, and the beam distance is impressive charges fast, Not to big but not to small, Works amazing. Whether you're working outdoors, patrolling, or just need serious illumination, this light delivers in every way. Hands down one of the best flood lights I’ve ever owned.

This is a good spotlight. Appreciate that it’s chargeable, saving on batteries. The first one purchased went in our house, then my husband wanted one in his shop. Price had gone up dramatically. They are pricey but quality is good.

First off, the light pictured IS NOT the light you get, which is a good thing in this case, but part of the reason I’m only giving it 3 stars. Streamlight sells 2 versions of this light according to their website, the “Waypoint”, and the higher powered more expensive “Waypoint 300”. The only difference you can see that differentiates the 2 models is the Waypoint 300 says 300 right on it, which the model pictured does not show, even though that is the actual model being sold here, the Waypoint 300. The specs Streamlight provides for the 2 different models doesn’t match up either, the lower end Waypoint has less Lumens and less specified beam distance than the Waypoint 300, but when shopping for these lights Waypoints specs aren’t consistent so its tough to say which specs are correct, their actual website does show the 1000 Lumen specs which is consistent, but they show the actual beam distance for this model as much further on their website than they advertise at other places like here. As far as the light goes it lights pretty well for the price, though I don’t own any higher or lower priced lights to compare to, just for the price I paid I’m satisfied with the amount of light it produces. The beam of light is very focused, more so than expected, its good if that’s what you want, but for me I think its a little too focused, it lights up bright an insanely long distance, which is exactly what I wanted, but the width of the lighted area is not wide at all seems to be about a 20’ circle at 50 feet or 1,000 feet with very little spill over lighting outside that area. It gives you a great focused distance, but a little more spill light would be better for my purpose in buying this. I have 100 acres of hilly woods I walk my dogs in at night and need to be able to find them. 1 dog is a pitch black Wolf who is invisible in even a little darkness and 1 is a pit bull who ironically happens to be the exact same color as the leaves on the ground making her also effectively invisible. I needed the long range because the Wolf in particular travels far in any given direction in just the blink of an eye. The focused beam I’m finding makes scanning the area for them difficult because it lights such a concentrated area. I can see where someone might like this, say if you were looking up a tree or at something stationary it would be great, but for scanning woods up and down hills looking for a fast moving object a little more flood to the sides would be better. The lower lumen model implies a less focused beam but at the sacrifice of distance, I needed both. While the light quality itself is very good, the feel of the light body has more of a thin cheap plastic sense to it. While mine isn’t intended to be utilized in an abusive or extreme environment and is adequate for my needs, if your intent is requiring something a lot more rugged or heavy duty I think you’ll be disappointed. There’s also a small metal ring on the back of it which is handy for attaching a strap, but I ended up grabbing it with pliers and ripping it off the light after my very first night with it, it makes a constant rattle noise and while stealth wasn’t a requirement for my situation I found the noise in the otherwise quiet of my woods at night annoying. I suppose I could have just put a piece of tape on it, but I just pulled it off, the rattling noise the clip makes just added to the over all cheap feel of the light body. The finger groove positions on the pistol grip are bizarre as well, its like it was designed for someone with 3 finger cartoon hands, the neglected to account for the pinky finger at the bottom and your pinky finger lands in a weird bulged spot at the bottom. The distance from the index finger at the trigger to the next finger spot down is also completely off. Its no big deal, it doesn’t make it uncomfortable or awkward to use, you’d think someone would have picked up on that in the initial prototype phase of development. I’m over all not dissatisfied with it, I’ll be keeping and using it despite having higher expectations from it. If I ever found myself in a situation needing to replace it I’ll admit I’ll explore some other options instead. This seems like it was a good design when it first went into production but the manufacturer has failed to invest in updating or improving on it over the years. They really need to… 1) Improve, fine tune, the spill lighting out more, at least a little while maintaining the brightness and distance it has. 2) Make it from a material that gives it a better quality feel than the cheap brittle plastic feel it has. It doesn’t have to be aircraft grade aluminum or excessively heavy (it is very light weight), but just not the current feeling like if you just squeezed it lightly its going to break in your hand. I own other items made from plastic yet still have a strong solid feel to them. Fix the fit between handle and hand. Fix the rattle noises. 3) Update the charging method to modern USB or something so it can be charged in your house AC or charged in your truck DC. 4) I would be fully satisfied paying twice as much for this same light if it had these improvements to it, as it is I think its only worth about half the price I paid for it. Update: After using it a couple weeks I’ve grown more attached to it, its really serving its purpose well, also, 2 straight weeks of nightly use and I still haven’t had to recharge it yet. I’m raising it from 3-4 stars and changing my opinion, if something happened to this one I’d buy another just like it. I would still like to see my suggested improvements, with one additional I’d add. Make it so a slight not full trigger pull only illuminates it to half brightness. Full brightness is great for finding my dogs and even doing a quick scan for skunks before letting them out, but I’m having to carry a 2nd flashlight to see where I’m walking because this is too bright to use in that way. You wouldn’t think a light could be too bright but it is at closer distances, the glare back, even from non reflective items like trees and leaves makes it difficult to see things up close. This is definitely not intended to be used as just a really bright flashlight or work light for close distances. The light range is unbelievable. I don’t have anything open and more than 1 mile away to test actual distance on, but I can light up a spot on a hill on the other side of a ravine that’s almost 1 mile straight across.

We bought two of these flashlights back in 2013, and have been very pleased with their performance ever since. Initially, we bought them to walk our dog at night in a neighborhood that had no street lights and lots of copperheads. They did what we needed them to do and more, like being able to observe owls in some very tall trees. The light is extremely bright and focused, which is what we wanted, rather than lighting up a large area around us like a lantern, as we are more interested in what is ahead of us. The ability to switch the light to the on position so that the trigger doesn't have to be constantly pushed is a great feature for long walks. We have found the weight and shape of the handle to be comfortable for extended use. We store the lights inside on a shelf, where they can be plugged in for recharging as needed. We tend to keep them plugged in when not in use, and that has not presented a problem. After 7 years and many more charges than the manufacturer stated we would get out of them, we are starting to experience shorter battery life. We are not surprised or disappointed by this, as the lights lasted far longer than expected and longer than any other electronic device we have purchased during this time period that also got daily use. So, I'm buying two more. We now live in the country on an acreage and need to keep an eye on our dogs at night as they run around our multiple-acre back yard. These lights are just the ticket.

Esta bien el producto ya tenia uno de hace 4 años y sigue funcionando bien

Best light out there for the money! Super bright, lightweight, and durable. Good longevity, just try to run the battery dead as I don’t think it’s good to be charging it at half or quarter. Oldest flashlight is at least ten years old, battery doesn’t last as long as the new one but still as bright as the day it was bought! Yes, it’s expensive. Yes, you need to buy it. No, trust me, you won’t regret this purchase. And yes, I’ve used maglite before and won’t be going back.

Excelente producto! El faro funciona de acuerdo a lo mencionado en la descripción. Ademas la rapidez de entrega fue estupenda, de un día para otro.

I've had 4 Streamlights Waypoints over the years for Pest bird and wildlife jobs. I wore 2 out and got streamlight warranty on them unexpected and awesome, but that's not why I like them. The Waypoints have a deep parabolic reflector the beam is concentrated to a fine useful point, perfect for looking for holes, and corners of warehouse's 20-49 ft away, often against the bright sky or even sun, which is typical for looking for bird and squirrel holes. Even though lumens are less that other flash light, it still beats them. Now I use a Laser flash light (That sucker goes for a mile or so.). and waypoints.

Excellent light for evening boating and when you hear a noise in the woods. Powerful beam in a well balanced and modest size Charge lasts many more hours than previous spotlights I have owned. I am so pleased with the Streamloghts performance that I have gifted several to family and close friends. This product lives up to the manufacturer's claims.
