Nicks flashlight sale

[Dan Bowers, CMI]

I got my 2 from NACHI - never had a problem.

PLUS, like old Chuck Bartley already said - go to a Cop Shop.

Our local one fixes them basically FREE on most malfunctions.

The ones I got suck. If they were in a rubber housing they would be much better.

I went with professional equipment and ordered 4 for a total of $36.15.

No cop shop, car parts store, or dealer had them in the whole Memphis, TN area that I could locate.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I would rate these flashlights a 4.

Each time they get banged, bumped, or dropped, the bulbs come out or go out. The handle is too skinny and the light end where they flare out is not very durable.

We mainly use them in HUD houses.They do light up well and the battery life is fair. Hard to keep them in the car charger working because every time we go off the curb or hit a bump in the hood we have to re-set them.

A rubber housing would make all the difference in the world.

I agree Frank, I have the same problem with mine.
I definitely don't like the chargers either.

I have 2 ultra stingers. I have had one for 4 years & the other one for 3. I alternate for each inspection so one is always on the charger. I have a DC just in case & always carry a spare bulb. I go through on average 4 bulbs a year. I just ordered 10 new bulbs & a new battery for my oldest light. I also bought a new switch because I tore the rubber boot. They come as an assembly so I couldn't just order the boot. I buy everything from Cop Quest. http://www.copquest.com/10-3300.htm

I got my new bulbs today and put them in the flashlights and they flashed on real quick and went right out. They both did this. What the heck does that mean?? I now have $200 bucks in these darn things and they dont work for crap.

These flashlights suck.

Your right, maybe they will make them right for me.

Well if you all want to spend some money on a flashlight, here is the best deal around. It is an 3 LED flashlight with an ultra capacitor.

At a local meeting last week, our tool guy brought his out. Just got it the week before. He purposely left it on for 2 days before the meeting to make sure it was completely dead. He plugged it into the charger and in 72 seconds, it was fully charged. Lasted for just under two hours and then recharged again in 74 seconds.

Spendy, but could be worth it. Average price is $170. but I have seen it for something like $140. No batteries to ever change. And LED means no bulbs to change.

Just took both my Ultrastingers in to Batteries Plus and they fixed a switch on one and installed missing o rings that kept the bulbs in place, all for free.

Great flashlights.

Better than Stinger!
