I have this thing… Flashlight edition! Streamlight Survivor

Welcome to episode 2 of "I have this thing..."
Today we're discussing the Streamlight Survivor Flashlight!
Find out more about the Streamlight Survivor here: www.streamligh...
Apparently streamlight released a new version of this light barely one week before this video came out! Guess I'll have to get that one now.
I have no relationship with Streamlight, and this is not an ad. I just like this product, and I think it works well!

Can confirm this is a great flashlight. I've used it in like, 6 different horror games and it's never failed me.

[@ferdinandstrat]

WOO! Yes! Another episode in this format! Rugged flashlights are an interesting concept, reminds me of this flashlight designed specifically for miners that AvE reviewed, damn thing is insane and is built like an absolute tank, very expensive too

[@LexYeen]

Rugged flashlights are cool, especially when they can run for a stupid-long time.

[@Ant16951]

this flashlight is also made for miners, it has MSHA info on the back of the flashlight, also for anyone who doesn't know MSHA is essentially OSHA for miners... Edit: Grammar

[@ferdinandstrat]

@@Ant16951 It better be cos if I am doing one of the most dangerous jobs on earth I BETTER have the right gear

[@johns9478]

I was seriously considering getting one of these at one point. I typically carry a Streamlight Sidewinder. It's interesting to consider what might have been...

[@Nick-A1]

I have an old military clip on flashlight I keep in my go bag, it's pretty useful. Hope you enjoyed the artwork my dude, have a good day.

[@kellyalger2394]

Zach breaking out the knife hands like a true E4

[@LexYeen]

Streamlight makes great stuff. I've got a ProTac 90, myself. One battery, AA or CR123A, for plenty of light with three control settings. The Survivor was in competition with it in my mind, but the ProTac 90 won out on size and battery needs. Still want a Survivor for my emergency bag, but it's not as urgent a want as it used to be.

[@unnecessaryopinions941]

Zach, your tangents are the best. Solid information Fun/NY delivery. And just a downright delight. Thank you (and mike) for being the freaking BEST

[@sir-dorkman9876]

Ooo awesome I really hope to see more videos like these maybe we can see Zach's geiger counters. I actually watched the Chernobyl series not too long ago and for some reason it got me really into radiation and Geiger counters so I always kind of wondered how they worked

[@Damper926]

Zach lays on the floor and talks about his neat gadgets. Good video

[@raspyApostle]

Thank you for participating in Show and Tell :)

[@ecs1126]

Moonbeam lasting that long is hilarious

[@LexYeen]

Welcome to LED flashlights, baybeeeeeeeeee- [NO CARRIER]

[@ToastyMozart]

Low power modes on LED flashlights are nuts, I've got an FC11 and it's rated at over 11 days at 2 lumens off a single 18650 rechargeable cell.

[@johnfkennedyinanopentopcar8976]

The fuck is a moon beam

[@Okihenlo]

Zach as a person who also shares the interest in odd niche items I could listen to you talk about candelas for hours I hope you continue this series

[@Guy_9991]

It’s just so peaceful

[@JiJ1511]

I am happy to see another one of these. Zach rambling is like the sound of the ocean to me.

The Amogus flashlight

[@RCMPGHOST]

I have a one on my bunker gear and i fairly like it

[@quarterluna]

Listening to Zach talk about anything he's interested in is so soothing.

[@Nillson1991]

I remember getting one back in 2013 or somewhere around that time, and I enjoyed it. Unfortunately for me, after about 8 months or so, the fresh alkaline batteries I installed blew and got acid all over the circuit board it was connected to rendering it useless, I am on the fence on getting a new one if the models been upgraded in away.

[@StarBurstRastaman]

Is it bad if I've been a firefighter for... 8 someodd years, and never knew about the moonbeam feature? I feel really stupid now

[@LexYeen]

In fairness, how often do you need _less_ light on a call?

[@Zach_Hazard]

Don’t feel dumb, my guy! It doesn’t say anywhere on the light how to do that hahaha

[@StarBurstRastaman]

​@@Zach_Hazard Okay, just got back from a training with my station. Not a SINGLE person knew about this feature. You just 'enlightened' about 40 firefighters with this video

[@dante_m]

Oh hey that’s the light we use on our turnouts

[@S0RGEx]

Man, it fucking sucks to be an American today, but your videos are helping to cool my head a little. Thanks Zach, keep being you.

[@ShamanG0M00]

Just bought one based on your review, looking forward to using it!

[@ShamanG0M00]

Update: Just got it in the mail today, I love this thing, I needed a nice camping/emergency flashlight and this fits the criteria perfectly, thanks again for showing us this Zach!

[@LPFSuleyman]

@@ShamanG0M00 is the batteries still working after a year? I am planning to get one of these to attach my shoulder belt so while I am riding my bicycle at night I can just use it but I am not sure how durable batteries on these things are, I am really not a big fan of batteries you have to change often so rechargeable feature would come in handy so I wont spend money on them for a long time

[@norsefirefighter]

If I remember right, they did a great job, took a beating and was easy to use while having gloves on.

[@DanteTorn]

Thank you for the flashing light warning. Too many people are careless about that.

[@PantherCat64]

I'm loving this series, keep it up.

[@johnthicc6100]

Always love your videos Zach!

[@thegentlemanpirate13]

Both my father and my uncle used to be/are firefighters, and I've come to the realisation that stuff made for firefighters is the level of heavy duty quality people *think* the term "military grade" refers to.

[@Nicpulse]

We use these at my fire department solid light.

[@huefell]

picking up on Zach's Ellie comment at the end I bought the black version of this flashlight a few years back and used it for a James Sunderland from Silent Hill 2 Halloween outfit, was a bit heavy in my breast pocket but worked well for the costume, plus it's now just been lying around my home so i've gotten some use out of it since with dealing with the attic and similar jobs

[@peteredwards2318]

I used to have a torch (UK speak for flashlight) that had a variable depth of bezel, and I don't mean some crummy screw focusing system, I mean you could add an entire inch to the depth between the lens and the light source, in a second if you wanted, or anywhere between, and the difference it made to the intensity of the beam was night and day. The tight focus was so intense that you could see the shape of the chip in the centre of the beam, as a shadow in the middle of the patch of light. Piece of shit electrically, but the aluminium housing and the variability of the focus was great. I wouldn't like to guess at its lumen output or candle power though🤔

[@pennyisdreadful]

wouldn't you get really warm using a torch for light?

[@crow_of_dunwall4039]

Do a video on backpack recommendations.

[@paulpaulson5701]

I may not be intrested in flashlights, but listening to Zach talking about it MAKES me intrested in flashlights.

Your voice is nice to listen to while I'm playing Subnautica. Edit: 20 DAYS!? I HAVE A MIGHTY NEED. I have ridiculously good natural night vision, so the moon beam would be helpful to me

[@SRandall81]

Zach really reminds me of gun Jesus in the way he talks in this episode

[@naota3k]

I believe these kinds of lights are called "intrinsically safe", as they're meant to be used in hazardous/explosive environments where you don't want _ANY_ sparkage!

[@trenchcoatbandit]

yay i can hear you!!!! also when your doing an mre case opening?

[@domination1985]

I want a led light with a better distance like old mag lights would light up a long distance but leds are brighter up close

[@LexYeen]

Replace your maglite bulb with an LED, put in a new reflector and upgraded lens (gorilla glass is popular) to deal with accumulated scratches, and pop in a fresh set of batteries.

[@domination1985]

@@LexYeen no what I was saying you go buy a new led light flashlight and they are bright as hell up close but can't shine more than 20 feet it seems like unless you get a spot light but they drain batteries fast

[@aaronm9478]

I am going to get one of these... Streamlight indicates the older ones are IPX4 rated. Not dustproof, can take water splashes from any angle (for 5 min), but is not submersible/"waterproof". Newer model is IP67 rated, fully dust-proof, essentially waterproof.

not kidding, if you're looking for a super high candela edc light, look into a convoy M2 with an nm1 led. insane candela for a carry ( i think around 80cd?) and multiple modes. all for around 28 bucks.

They are built like a tank. Purpose built for firefighters to cut through smoke. But for every day carry, they are lousy. Not very bright. If you go by dollar per lumens, the survivor is the worst value ever in a flashlight.
