Used a Streamlight Ultra stinger for 9 years made the switch to the Fenix and love it. It is lighter, shorter, a hell of a lot brighter ( about three times) and I charge it about once every three weeks.

I have 3 Ultra Stinger Streamlights, and all are going strong.
I have only replaced one battery so far in 5 years...

I use Streamlight's PolyStinger LED

I was inspecting an engine (my aviation job) and my Stinger battery went out. I borrowed a coworkers PolyStinger LED and was shocked at the bright, white light. I was so impressed that I walked over to a computer and bought one on the spot. I usually use the medium setting since the high setting is often too bright when reading data plates, etc. Also, the LED light really holds a good charge too.
