Nah, they're built pretty hefty. The lens is polycarbonate, the "bulb" is an LED (no filament to break).

I guess I'm the only one with a problem. I've had one on my G17 for years, but I always take it off when going to the range. I figured there was no need to put it through a torture test. Last time out, I got lazy and left it on. The small lever you use to activate the light went flying off into space. Evidently, it's two pieces, or it just broke in half, because only the left side is missing. I can still use it as I'm right handed and use my trigger finger to activate it, but it still bugs me that it broke the first time I left it on the gun.
The lever is one piece. I'd contact Streamlight and see if they'll send you a new one. Warranty | Streamlight
You're much better off using your support thumb for the switch, IMO.
Hi guys...
I spend a lot of my spare (personal) time reading reviews of SL products to see how they can be improved. I often see reviews on this site I personally like because I oversee the design for many of the new products developed at SL. I have never signed up at a forum to make comments..until tonight. I live in PA, but lived a few years in Grand Prarie TX back in the mid 90's..working at Lockheed. I'm glad to see most of you are happy with the products (yeah, I wish they were cheaper too!). We have our own gun range and many weapons to make sure you guys don't have problems when you buy a product (that's right..I get paid to shoot too..I love my job!)
To the guy who had his switch break...contact SL customer service and I'm sure you will have no problems getting it repaired.
To the guy who just bought one...hope you are very happy with it. If you don't like the strobe..you can always disable it.
Wish I could tell you all what's coming next year...
Have a great Holiday (Christmas!)

Oh wow that's cool! If you ever want someone to help test your products you know where to find me! 
I thought I'd add something. I really feel I got more than what I paid for to be honest. I think, so far, that is the absolute best light you can get for the money.

NIce... Another +1 for this light. I won a Surefire X300 at LaRue Range day and can honestly say I prefer the Streamlight.

Just playing along. I'm a poor boy from the woods and can't afford a Streamlight. My flashlights say eveready, but often they're not.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for your input!
Yeah, OK, so I like their stuff. I currently own about 6 flashlights from Streamlight and have given a few away as gifts. I've had positive experiences (I've owned about a dozen all told), so I like the company.
Just for anyone looking, LA Police Gear 5.11 Tactical, Galco, Maxpedition, Converse, Bates, Danner, Surefire and Blackhawk is running a 15% off special right now, and the TLR-1S with that discount is 89.24....
Did you see the link I posted? You are out the door for under $100 with them, never had issue one when ordering with them..probably 20 or 30 times over the last 2 years..
