So far I haven't come across any flashlight that compares (it was $75 at Amazon.com a few years ago w/2 chargers).
Where did you find it? Costco?

And sorry, but Ih8 the Ultra Stinger. The ones we use at work go to the shop every couple months. There is a design flaw in the bulb mounting and they constantly come loose or break. Very bright light but the design is flawed. My Stinger XT on the other hand has performed flawlessly for around 6 years and almost daily use. Very very durable.
