How does the 90X compare with the Streamlight Survivor Alkaline? Is the 90x brighter? Would you use the 90x on a turnout coat rather than the Survivor? Everyone I know uses the Survivor, but this looks smaller, same price, and brighter?
Yes, I would use the 90x on a turnout coat. The survivor has a better punch through the smoke. But I like that the 90x is smaller in size and the rechargeable battery.
Excellent video and review ! Can't thank you enough. I wish all reviews were like this. Fire Inspector here...been using my craftsman 90 degree light that I picked up in H Despot. Finally dropped it one too many times. You covered all the points, applications, and comparisons I was looking for...and more. Streamlight should post a link to your review...Well done. I'm convinced and will order one tonight. Thanks for showing that Olight as well...I'll have to pick one up... great option as opposed to fiddling with a headband apparatus.
I just bought the polytac 90, but they sent me the 90x? I'm assuming the 90x is better lol. It didn't come with the rechargeable battery, it came with the 123a batteries.
Very pleased with the Polytac 90x fits perfectly in my tool bag side pocket. Nice review Matt much better then others. Great technical no nonsense content. Many thanks.
Good reviews. Would you say the Polytac 90x would be a good light to wear on Turnouts? I was thinking about buying the knucklehead but the 90x looks like it’ll do the job.
Thanks for the review, it was interesting seeing the lights together. I have the Perun mini and like it, just wish it had a battery level indicator and was available with a neutral white beam although the CW it does have is respectable. Although it takes a proprietary battery, you do know you can swap it out, right? Further, there are two other power options. It does not fully function with a primary CR123A, but it will run at 15 lumens and in the 2 lumen moonlight mode on a primary battery. I imagine it has to do with protecting the rechargeable from being overly discharged, but the S1R Baton II seems to hand a CR123A albeit with lower performance, so I don't know.The other option is to run the Perun mini from a powerbank since it will continue to run and charge just fine, and if you catch the cord the magnet will just disconnect without damage to the light.
I think it's definitely worth the upgrade my polytacx has one of those rechargeable batteries. The performance is awesome. The CR123s are so expensive. I'd much rather have a couple of those streamlight rechargeable batteries.
My rechargeable streamlight battery does turn green when fully charged, it can take up to 5 hours to charge.

@@MWDAdventures thanks!
Any chance of the light being damaged by using the 3500 battery?

It’s great love the ability to recharge the battery with x models.

I LOVE STREAM LIGHT the first stream light flashlight I got was the stream light survivor and it is amazing i recommend these flashlighs
I have a stream light ultra stinger. Have had it for years. One awesome flashlight. Thanks for the video
Where did you get the 90x? I can’t find them online anywhere
hookandcanman83 www.brightguy.com. I buy a lot of lights from him.
Matt DeWitt awesome thanks. I’ve been rocking both the polytac and protac 90 for a while too in almost the same setup on my gear and radio strap
between the perun mini and the Protac 90 ....which one is better?
Pros and cons for both. I like the more spot light of the protec line. The petunia is to floods for me and only good for close up work.
Ela tem opção de acender sem clicar totalmente ?
