Spika Spotlight STL-001 review

Post by pete1 » 07 Feb 2018, 6:48 am

So couldn't find a whole lot of info on the Spika Spotlight STL-001 when i was looking at buying one.

https://spika.com.au/product/trigger-light

So thought $99 sounds real cheap, so brought one.

Best $99 i've spent in ages.

On the box it says it goes 600m I'll say it goes that far but you could't shoot a target at that distance.

It charges off USB, cigarette lighter and 240v, but it takes 5 hours to charge, can run while charging though.

Lasts 2.5 hours.

I personally dont like the grip, fingers don't fit in the groves, would of been better making it a straight grip. Its not to heave so easy to hold and lug around.

Overall including value for money I'd rate it a 8 out of 10.

Charge time is the biggest negitive

Ill post some Pics later, just thought I'd write this so others that may be interested can read before they buy.

I got one of these for Xmas, I agree with all the above, though I don’t mind the grip personally, my main gripe with this style of light has always been charge time/runtime, if they bought one out with interchangeable batteries then they’d be close to perfect.

Yeh 100% a interchangeable battery would make life so much better, there are other brands that do this, but they can cost 3x as much.
