Oh I could almost guarantee it is. Thats nothing new though. I'd be shocked if you showed me a flashlight at any price that held up to it's claims in that arena. You might get half of that if you used lithium batteries though.
Non-rechargeable is a deal breaker for me. Fine for a person who doesn't use a flashlight daily in their profession but I can't be bothered with keeping batteries on hand and in my case rechargeable will re-coup the $150 I paid for the light in pretty short order.
Someday I'll charge and test how long I get full brightness on a charge. The streamlight LEDs are single diode (bulb) so I might be surprised. I know this, I charge mine once a week and have yet to see any dimming with extensive use. My non LED lights I had to pretty much keep on the charger when not in use.
