The 250 lumen Microstream USB, the 500 lumen Macrostream USB, and the 1000 lumen Protac HLX with the patented ten tap programming. Which light is best for carrying? Which light is best for self-defense? Find out by watching the video.

    I just got the macro had the micro but lost in the woods lol definitely love the “dark” desert tan of the micro but whatever color is color macro is definitely brighter hopefully not too bright cuz I’m a hvac tech and everything is up close.

    Nice review.
    An interesting comparison review would be the Protac HLX vs Protac 1L-1AA.
    I bet the 1L-1AA blows away the Macrostream too.

    Hey brother hope your well, Great review. Stream light is my go to lights, price to quality/durability is great. I carry a Macrostream for over a year now, my only complaint is that it goes from on to just dead. I really feel it should go from bright to low when the battery drops low enough. Now if you wait a few seconds and fast switch from high to low you may be able to use it in low for a while. But I almost feel I need to carry a second light, I just don't like going from light to zero light, especially if I am out seeing if I need to chase a bear out of my yard.

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  2 года назад +2

      Thanks for the comment. That's a trade-off that you get with lithium batteries. Unlike Alkaline, which slowly dim sum dim... With lithium, you get full power the whole time. A couple of things I do is keep a spare battery. But also charge it once per week whether I've used it much or not. Thanks for watching!

  • @AffordableArmory

    You’ve been watching Werkz videos, haven’t you? 😂 Great video. I’ve used 2 of the 3. Don’t own a Macrostream. But the HLX is my edc.

  • @garyandtricia1
    @garyandtricia1 Год назад +1

    I noticed that the beam was pointed at your legs with the micro/macro but right at your face with the protac. Not saying it would have made a huge difference. Probably due to the bezel being larger and tilting the light upwards.

  • @livingleglessreptiles9160
    @livingleglessreptiles9160 2 года назад +1

    I love all my streamlights but my favorite everyday carry light is the protac 2l-x rechargeable battery but replaceable if need be great for many tasks and is somewhere between the macro and the hlx fits in the pocket better than my protac hl though . Great videos sir !!

  • @SquidGunman
    @SquidGunman 2 года назад +3

    I’ve had to send 3 different very lightly used Streamlights back to the manufacturer over the last 3 years. That caused me to lose faith in them. The best by far is Surefire. Not even debatable.

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  2 года назад +3

      Well, I do believe it's very debatable. But that's for another day. What specific lights did you have a problem with and what was the problems?
