Need help identifying Streamlight

[swissmovement]

I'm trying to identify what model this streamlight is. 2 D cell, incandescent, twist on/off. Only markings seem to be on the tailcap. Not very bright even with good batteries. Thanks

Early Streamlight products were made in Norristown PA and Barstow CA. The PA stuff was all Streamlight designed. The Barstow CA was a Kel-Lite facility that Streamlight bought in the early 80's. Often referred to as 3rd generation Kel-Lites they made D sized flashlights with clicky switches not that different from a Maglite.
Apparently they also made twisty lights as evidenced by your post swiss. Good score!!

Cool light! Seems like those should have been more popular back in the day.

This may be the patent:

which would date it right around the time streamlight bought out Kel-lite.

Thanks for the info! Somebody linked me to this thread on here where the person put 18500 cells in his with a 6v bulb. I'm going to do that to mine.
