760	Flashlight	POS	4	bulb work Perfect in my Milwaukee M12 Flashlight . just wish bulb be brighter . still cant figure out why Milwaukee dose not make a bulb .
946	Flashlight	POS	5	when three tornado hit my board school , I come to realize the importance of a flashlight -lrb- which I didnt have at the time , unfortunately -rrb- . realize my error in not own such a essential item , I immediately go to the store and buy one . my family have own -lrb- and lose -rrb- numerous flashlight , and we mag lite be by far the best flashlight we have ever own . some flashlight go on and off as the battery jiggle around , die as soon as you drop they , or just be not make to live long . mag lite be definitely not these flashlight ! my minus Maglite have be drop , kick , stomp , squish , throw , everything ... and it still work great ! it be three year old now and still work like it do on day one . it do not suck battery dry , which be definitely a plus , and the light be constant . it do not flicker on and off if teh battery somehow shake . I love how you can change the beam to cover a large area or focus in on a small area . it be great for late night read in the dorm room . now I even own a small MagLite Solitaire for my keychain . it be very small but just as powerful . altogether , a great little flashlight and a excellent price .
8	Flashlight	POS	5	this be a wonderful light that will fit easily in most purse and have a powerful light for such a small package . highly recommend .
61	Flashlight	POS	5	I own one black one 6cell maglite piece . in default configuration -lrb- default bulb , 6cell -rrb- it be almost the best flashlight ever make . there be modification like , lead replacement -lrb- original or from Diamond LED -rrb- after this upgrade you will be so surprised how long and even more brighter the light `` sabre '' be . it be also good self defense stick , be careful if you use maglite as self defense weapon . you could seriously break some bone .
718	Flashlight	POS	5	we have own one of these light for about 5 year . nothing be as bright or as useful . this year we buy one for each family member .
9	Flashlight	POS	5	I already have the battery so i just need the light , but wow what a nice flash light . for the money you cant go wrong .
79	Flashlight	NEG	1	this be a great light back in the 80s but today they just do not stack up to Streamlight and Surefire . if you want a light that be bright , lightweight and white light -lrb- not that old incandescent yellow -rrb- you best bet be to check out other option . you may pay more for other option but you will have a light that be 1\/4 the weight and twice as bright .
441	Flashlight	POS	5	I be look for a small flashlight replacement bulb 18 volt but it must have a screw thread in order to replace the one I have for a small lantern .
881	Flashlight	POS	5	i love the lite id just like to know where to get replacement bulb at for this model but over all its a wonderful lite
515	Flashlight	POS	5	I have own 4 conventional -lrb- Krypton -rrb- bulb Maglites over the year and I have run many , many set of battery through they , especially my 2 aa maglite . I 'll just cut to the chase and say that they hit the ball out of the park with this lead version , it be fantastic . the follow observation be with fresh battery in all of the unit : - brightness : the 2 aa lead version be significantly brighter than the 2 AA Krypton bulb version . in fact the 2 aa led be nearly as bright as my 3d cell Krypton bulb maglite ! - clarity : it be no secret that traditional bulb flashlight typically project uneven light pattern with super bright and super dark area in the beam . I find this incredibly annoying and will have to play with the focus of the beam to find something usable . the lead version have this problem solve . the clarity and spread of the light be fantastic . I can flick it on to ANY setting and it be 10x better than the traditional -lrb- Krypton bulb -rrb- maglite in term of clarity and beam focus . I can tell they work a lot on this and they do a great job . - color : this be minor compare to the above , but the lead version put out a cool white beam that be easy on the eye and it seem easier to pick up detail . the conventional bulb version put out a harsher more redish \/ pink beam and after compare the two back to back the lead version be much better . - battery life : do not know yet . I hear the battery should last longer and the circuitry keep the light output up even as the battery go down in charge . Time will tell . I now plan to upgrade all my d cell version with the led upgrade kit . I be very pleased with this purchase . I have make some nasty review in the past , so this this positive review be say something . : -rrb-
592	Flashlight	POS	5	i have buy multiple Mini Maglites over the year . they all still work great , they be durable , light , small ; perfect for home , car , camping , travel , etc ; candle mode rock ! this little flashlight be plenty strong ; yes there be bright out there , but for a lot more $ ; dollar-for-dollar , this model be outstanding .
434	Flashlight	POS	4	take 4 day to arrive ; not stellar , but more than acceptable with free shipping . it fit my Ryobi 18v flashlight . I put the 2nd bulb in a Ryobi 14.4 v flashlight - it work , but do not appear as bright . I 'll consider buy a 14.4 v bulb next chance I get .
216	Flashlight	POS	5	very bright , rechargeable . if you use you light all of the time , you need this one !
660	Flashlight	POS	5	I have drop my Maglite onto hard floor , submerge it in water , and subject it to the abuse of a tornadic four year old . the all metal -lrb- not plastic ! -rrb- case be nearly indestructible . both end be thread and be fit with snug o-ring to protect the innards from rain , humidity , and submersion . the lens housing twist to adjust the focus of the beam and come off to allow it to be use as a candle -lrb- handy for night in a tent or during a power outage -rrb- . in addition , a extra bulb reside in the base !
707	Flashlight	POS	5	I have have this system since 1991 and my flashlight stop work , so I check and order this one and now both maglight that work flawlessly . the charger on my 1st one finally go south only take 14 year . if you want dependability and longevity do not think about it , just buy it !
951	Flashlight	POS	5	I buy this flashlight to go with my other Dewalt 18v nicad battery collection . I do not use my tool that much so nicad be perfectly fine for I . the flashlight do as I expect . it provide pretty good light and the battery provide a good base for it to stand on . the battery life on it seem to be fine and I have have no problem with the bulb burn out . that be pretty much all I can say about this flashlight .
605	Flashlight	POS	5	have a 4c cell for about 10 year until I let a fellow guard use it and that be the last I have see of it just about a year ago . have a really nice rechargable flashlight at home but the end cap needle use to rechage it be broekn and this be the BEST flashlight replacement for it . recieve it in a timely manner 3 day of order and just in time for the weekend work shift . would highly recommend this flashlight as I do not know if I can order a new end cap for the rechargable , in which case it can still be use with regular battery but not as bright as with the battery it come with . these light can take a beating and still work . my lose old one be scracthe and betan but work when I need it to . buy this flashlight also for good self protection as a baton in most state be consider a deadly weapon and a maglight be not . but check you local law to make sure . do not quote I on the legality of the use of a maglight for protection make sure and look for yourself !!
542	Flashlight	POS	5	as expect , he mag give plenty of light for everyday use and emergency situation . what I like most about it be the sturdy build and feel . all in all the Ferrari of consumer flashlight .
7	Flashlight	POS	5	all the mag lite share solid aluminum construction and rubber o-ring seal .  what set the minus mag off from the other mag lite be its size -lrb- easy to hold with tooth while work under car , sink , etc -rrb- and one little known feature - `` candle '' mode . you adjust the beam focus by rotate the minus mag 's head , but if you continue turn the head pop off ; you be leave with the handle and the expose bulb , which be now throw light in all direction - it be a `` candle '' . flip the head over , place it on the ground\/table - it be now a `` candle holder '' . Stick the candle into the candle holder . instant candle for camping . -lrb- these direction be actually on the minus mag 's packaging , but it be not until I have buy my third minus mag -lrb- one for car , kitchen , daypack -rrb- that I notice . this be actually a great trick to show other minus mag owner ... they also throw they packaging away without look it -rrb-  two minus mag in the candle mode do a good job on a picnic table at night ... so get two of they ... they be cheap .
285	Flashlight	POS	4	I be give my 2d maglite as a gift from my brother . the light have prove to be very reliable and have never fail I . maglite do produce very high quality and durable flashlight . they should put more development into brighter bulb . I have several surefire flashlight and they completely blow this light away , while be much smaller . I have a rechargable surefire duty light that be smaller and weigh 1\/3 as much as this light . at the same time my Surefire produce 10x the output of this light . I have put a mag lead module in it for more output . now I can justify the size of the light . it will put out about 30lumen for about 20hr now . the problem the light have in stock form be that the light would reach 50 % light output in 1 hour of runtime . the remain output decline throughout the 10hr of runtime and eventually be produce relatively weak light . it do not make much sense to haul 30oz . of weight for the light output that this light put out after 5hr of runtime . I would like to see mag do some research into some brighter bulb . I really like the heft and feel that this light provide . I give the 4d maglite a lower rating just because it be ridiculously large for the light output it provide . with the led module in this 2 cell light it match the output of its larger 3-4 cell brother yet be more efficient . I still prefer incand . light though so I would like mag to put brighter bulb in these . in stock form Maglites get blow away by they competition .
225	Flashlight	POS	4	I purchase a couple of these set . I have a hard time find my flashlight when the electricity go out . so , I purchase these and now I have designate place for my maglite flashlight . Safety wise , it be a good thing too . I do not like that you have to put so much pressure on the flashlight in order for it to lock in place . be careful with you finger . I get the feeling these bracket may break if you put to much pressure on they .
470	Flashlight	POS	5	excellent choice . have a friend with one just like it and use he prior to purchase . I already have a saws-all and drill by dewalt with the same 18 v battery pack . very pleased .
763	Flashlight	POS	5	I own about 4 or 5 of these little light and they be great . they easily fit into glove compartment , tool box , even you pocket and be always handy . my 2.5 year old son be fascinate with my flashlight and so I buy he a `` cheap '' immitation , which quickly break . I replace it with another and it , too , break . I find they to be unrepairable . I then decide to get he he own mag light . not only do he love it -- it be the first thing he ask for in the morning these day , but it be repairable . he have drop it and try to take it apart many time . usually the drop either break the bulb or dent the top contact on the battery -lrb- which need immediate replacement . -rrb- one time it just be not work after replace the bulb and battery . I almost give up when I decide to take apart the plastic ring that hold the bulb -lrb- it actually say `` do not remove '' -rrb- I be surprise to find how easily it come out to expose the contact . the contact that touch the housing that turn the light on and off be slightly corroded\/gunked up . I clean it lightly with steel wool and snap it back together and it work ! all in all , a handy , rugged , and repairable little light !  buy several .
137	Flashlight	POS	5	this be the highest quality flashlight on earth . not just this model but the entire product line . I think Mag Instruments have perfect the flashlight . you could spend you whole life buying and toss cheapo flashlight 's or buy a Maglite once it be that simple . Dont blow you money on plastic junk Stick with mag they really be the Mercedes Benz of flashlight .
670	Flashlight	POS	5	I know that led be now all the rage . but the light emit just be not the same . mag light may not be at the peak of technology , but they work great , be heavy duty and reliable . would it surprise you to know that I do not own a smart phone ? -lrb- I do not even know what one be !! -rrb- this mag light be the perfect size for the glove box or anywhere that a smaller size be desire . my fantasy be to own a 5 d cell model . Whoooooo !!
299	Flashlight	NEG	1	if you think you be get the spring STEEL clip with rubber coating , THINK again . THESE THINGS be shiny black brittle look plastic !
925	Flashlight	POS	5	build solid and be super-bright . I test it at night and it light up the whole downstairs from we landing as if it be daytime . the back of the light set comfortably on you shoulder while hold it with one hand at shoulder height face forward - it be big . only downside be that it do not come with the battery , so count on another 6 + dollar .
467	Flashlight	POS	5	I have a set of these mount below the dash on my pickup face the floor . it be tuck away just right so any occupant can see it clearly and get to it , but it be out of sight of stranger , out of the way and not float around the interior of the car . well worth the money . I be go to buy two more for other vehicle .
922	Flashlight	NEU	3	I be surprised to see so many 5 star review for this light . a flashight main purpose be to output light . this flashlight do not do that . I own 5 of these that I get over the year but have be one over by the LED light that throw out ton more light and last much longer on battery . while this be very well buily and a nice look light what it lack in candlepower make this just a ok light . if you be compare it to the cheap plastic flashlight then yes , its a 5 star light but what kind of comparison be that ? I know the led light cost more but they be come way down in price and worth the extra money if you want a bright light . I can shine all 5 of mine on new battery onto the wall and they be stil not as bright as my other led light , even the cheap one . I be not talk about the weak run of the mill lead 's but the luxeon or cree model . one of those be brighter than all 5 of my maglight put together .
153	Flashlight	POS	5	it work very nice just as describe i have the 3d cell mag light lead and it fit perfect
479	Flashlight	POS	5	I have have Maglite 's for many year . this be a gift for my kid and I be amaze at how bright these light shine . it be compact and the candle light feature be a nice touch which be actually extremely practical for outside dining on camping trip .
56	Flashlight	POS	5	as a 10 year aircraft maintainer in the US Air Force , I have use everything from standard mag-lite , scuba diver ' light , and even penlight in a pinch . I can say this flashlight be brighter than any other I have use . it cut my inspection time in half because I can see thing 55 foot off the ground just like it be right in front of I . do not be fool to think a rechargeable battery pack be not as strong as standard alkaline battery . this be not the case . I would not trade this flashlight for anything !
59	Flashlight	POS	5	I purchase the DeWalt 12-volt nicad pivot head flashlight -lrb- w\/o battery -rrb- . it arrive promptly and be very well pack . it be first quality and exactly as describe . I plug a charge battery in and it work as it should . I use it every day in my work and it be durable and take a lot of punishment , drop , bounce around in the back of a p\/u truck , scoot & drag along the ground , toss from person to person etc. . excellent product .
284	Flashlight	NEU	3	this flashlight be ok in most situation , but only put out 2 lumen of light . I suggest get a flashlight that have more lumen .
889	Flashlight	POS	5	I love all maglite that I own . the 6d light be incredibly powerful . Perfect for a airport beacon . : - -rrb- seriously , the adjustable focus allow for wide flood to tight spot with a range that allow you to see considerable distance with clarity at night . would be perfect for neighborhood watch . the one and only complaint I have with maglite be the quality of the manufacturing of the bulb . they last very long but the accuracy in which they be shaped and attach to the bulb 's base during manufacturing be often poor . this result in uneven light distribution in the beam . the bulb in this particular 6d light -lrb- one of several that I have own and currently own -rrb- be tilted in its base by a very visible amount . when the light be focus to spot , this seriously affect the ability of the MAGLITE to cast as much light at a distance because much of light be reflect by the MAGLITE 's reflector off to angle that prevent it from contribute to the center of the beam . this affect its power and range of illumination . however , I happen to have spare bulb and select one that be manufacture more precisely , install it in the MAGLITE , and the beam be perfect . so if you get one that shoot much of its light off to one side of the beam center , look for another bulb -lrb- there be a spare in the base of the flashlight -rrb- and swap out the bulb . in addition to bulb that be tilted in they base -lrb- not the socket of the MAGLITE that receive the bulb , but the base of the bulb iteself -rrb- , the size and shape of the nipple where the glass be form can also cause issue with light distribution , though not as severe as bulb that be attach to they basis incorrectly . this can often contribute to uneven light distribution in the beam . I have many maglite of all size , except c-cell , and this problem occur relatively often in the d-cell light , but not in all instance . I learn to keep some extra bulb on hand not only for when one burn out -lrb- again , they last long -rrb- but also to replace a poorly-manufactured one in a new MAGLITE . I think that MAGLITE should work on the quality control of its bulb -lrb- which may be manufacture by someone for MAGLITE -rrb- . regardless , the bulb issue , if you have one , be easily correct be replacement of the bulb . I would still recommend maglite to anyone . they be tough , long lasting and powerful . just do not let battery sit too long in the light without change they with fresh one . if they leak , they fuse to the inside of the light and you will not get they out .
736	Flashlight	POS	5	I currently own two of these little lifesaver ; one in the car and one at home , and for the size and money I honestly do not think you can find something better . First let 's talk about the size : at only 5 and 3\/4 inch it be perfect for a car glove compartment , center console , or even in the visor if you car have a pouch for sunglass or other article . for at home it be equally convenient : store it in a kitchen drawer , night stand or any other place you can keep something the size of a large tip marker . feature wise the Mini mag have a spare lamp in the tail cap , can change from spot to flood light with a twist , and can operate in candle mode . . mean you simply keep turn the light cover until it come off , and then place it on the other end so it act like a base . this be a great idea , and allow you to keep you hand free if the situation arise . one other thing I want to point out be to correct the person who state you must use two hand to use this light . I have the flash light before I as I be write this , and I can state for a fact that it can easily be turn on or off with one hand . if you have enough strength to adjust the volume on a stereo , you can turn the Mini mag through it be full range of flood to spot and then off . Quality of the Mini mag be also top notch . one reviewer state he break from a two foot fall on carpet . sorry , but I either do not believe that or simply you Mini mag be defective . I have drop the one I keep in my car at least 5 time . . on concrete ! and it still work as well as the first day i buy it . I know friend who have ding and dent on they Mini mag , yet this little light continue to shine . can you find a better flashlight in this size ? I be sure you could . but for 10.00 ? nope . in my opinion nothing else even come close .
697	Flashlight	NEG	2	this flashlight have very average brightness . the beam that it produce be very uneven . battery life be average . basically , it be the Chevy Caviler of flashlight . if you be interested in top performance , check out flashlight from Fenix , Streamlight or Surefire . they will cost more , but there be a night and day difference . a similarly size flashlight that produce 10x the brightness with a very smooth and even light be the surefire g2 .
904	Flashlight	POS	5	I have purchase this maglite originally for my sister . she buy a house in the bay area , and so I think a great housewarming gift would be a 6d maglite . she live by herself , have no pet , and I figure she could use a excellent flashlight . I be not say she can not defend for herself , I be just say that everyone , no matter if you be live in a apartment or house , should have at least one 6d maglite . however , she see the size of this thing , and reject my gift . she tell I she would throw it away , so I say I would take it . I give she my 2d maglite in place of the 6d and now I have one of these bat and my sister have a smaller version . do I mention the size of this flashlight ? I just go camping to Yosemite for a week , and let I tell you , this flashlight be great . you can take off the head of the flashlight , and it become a lantern . it light up any tent or campground . my buddy be impress with how durable and reliable the Maglite . overall , I would recommend this product to anybody . even police officer tell people to get this flashlight . so when you have law enforcement officer refer individual to this product , then you know it have to be a effective item .
549	Flashlight	POS	5	i need to buy anotherone cause mine be stollen ... so i know i could not go out without one of this ... be very usefull and by the way be very practical to have one in the purse , in you car , in you kitchen cabinet ... any place , cause you never know ... !!!
814	Flashlight	POS	5	these little flashlight rock . I must be the last person in the US to discover Mag Instrument flashlight , but I be a solid convert now .  when you be camp , especially backpacking , a little light like this be very handy . the battery do not last long , but they do not weigh much either -- a key factor for backpacker . and they be very rugged . I live in a wooded suburb at the end of a country road -lrb- at least it use to be a country road -rrb- with frequent power problem . we must own 10 flashlight already , but be replace they with more reliable unit -- like these little mag light .  we buy the accessory kit with the lanyard -lrb- and other stuff that we find less useful -rrb- . for camping , we also buy a non-mag belt holster that can hold both the light and a knife or Leatherman .  highly recommend .
835	Flashlight	POS	5	I need a small compact flashlight for work and after check several review , I decide to get this one . I love the adjustable light feature simply by turn the lens -lrb- knob -rrb- at the top of the flashlight . it adjust from a wide view to a nice sharp concentrated beam . it also have a `` candle '' feature . the lens unscrew from the base . you set the lens on a flat surface and then set the base `` inside '' the lens so the bulb be expose give you the `` candle '' effect . I have only use it a few time so far so I be not sure how fast it will eat up battery , but for the light itself - I would buy again .
513	Flashlight	NEG	1	3 week ago , I contact Maglite for a replacement switch for my 4-d flashlight , in which the switch fail . the customer service rep ask I for my serial number , which I give she and she assure I that I could get a replacement switch . I give she my name and address and she say that a shipment have just go out , and it would be in the next shipment . that be fine with I . day turn into week . still no part . more day go by . still no part in the mail .  hmmmm . be this how long time customer be treat ? I previous own a variety of they flashlight , from a AAA Solitaire to a 5-d flashlight , at least 5 in total . my dad have purchase in the neighborhood of 15 or more himself , start in about '86 when someone else turn he onto Maglites .  customer support be as important to I as the product itself . have customer support become a casualty of a tough economy ?  this long-time customer will have to look at alternative the next time he be buy a flashlight .
401	Flashlight	NEG	1	although I have buy and use many mag over the year , the flaw with they and any incandescent light be the bulb filament break at the most inconvenient time . I would recommend a lead flashlight since there be nothing to break , cause immediate darkness . mag have just not keep up with the time . the led be go to replace the bulb in all flashlight shortly .
436	Flashlight	NEG	2	I be very excite to get this light ... initially , I like it . out of the packaging , I hook it up to the 18v battery and it work , emit a fairly bright beam . the sale ad say that it come with a `` extra '' bulb , which be not include . I email Amazon regard the issue and they send a 2nd light to my address , instead of send a bulb or two -lrb- ? -rrb- . it be worth mention the the re-ship do not have the extra bulb either . I have pretty much decide to just purchase the other light as well , think I could use one and leave one in the work truck as a spare . then , I be use one of the light , hit it pretty hard with a board I be use in a attic , and it fizzle . I go and get the other light , use it the rest of the morning , then go to use it in the afternoon and it be burn out too - with little to no abuse -lrb- that I can remember -rrb- . I send both of the light back - they be not as durable as they should be . instead , I order two of the flexible-head light -lrb- Dewalt 18V -rrb- . a few of my friend have these and have have no issue . I will leave a review for those as well when I have have time to put they to the test . all in all , this be a bright light , but if you put you equipment to the test day-in and day-out , it might not be the quality you be look for .
330	Flashlight	POS	5	perfect in great condition it have be the second time I have buy this item from this seller ! quick response and brand new
113	Flashlight	POS	5	great product . I love minus mag . they be durable and have great battery life . Super dependable . best minus flashlight on the market . this be my 3rd one ; not because the other break , but because I like to have more than one . one to take hiking , one for the car , and one to leave in the house . Great buy !
313	Flashlight	POS	4	there be lot of better light out there . but for less then $ 20 , you can not beat the price for this flashlight . especially if you just need something to have around the house . the only real problem I have with this light be that the switch tend to come off fairly easy . it be not too hard to put it back on , and if you lose it , it be fairly cheap to replace -lrb- less then $ 2 -rrb- . but still annoying .
140	Flashlight	POS	5	I CA not SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS FLASHLIGHT ! I put a three WATT WHITE lead from MAG-LITE in MINE . there 's one in EACH car and TRUCK . and spare c cell . THIS COMBO will send a brilliant white beam for a hundred yard that really light up the scene ! and it do it for a long time . 100 % RELIABLE . 100 % cool .
419	Flashlight	NEG	1	why cheat you customer with such a high price , -lrb- nearly double -rrb- ? and then try to suggest that be be actually one-half off ? would it not make more sense to price they in accordance with the normal marketplace and point out the virtue of the camo to hunter , camper , etc ? count I out .
248	Flashlight	POS	5	you wont be sorry if you buy a mag light . we just buy the 3 cell mag light for my father in law birthday . my husband already have one they be very nice . and last forever . I think its the best flashlight we have ever own ...
920	Flashlight	POS	5	this be for bedroom as a emergency light . it be rechargeable and easy to mount ... probably double as a good head smacker too if ever need ... g-d forbid .
102	Flashlight	POS	5	this be a great item to pack for travel , its very lightweight and I end up use it more than I would have anticipate during a recent 3-week trip to Africa . a previous reviewer mention the `` candle '' functionality which come in handy . you can not go wrong with this , especially at this price .
778	Flashlight	POS	5	my work go through a blackout recently and this definitly would have handy at the time . this be one of the brightest flashlight I have see . the price be also lower than I have see anywhere else .
886	Flashlight	NEU	3	the dw904 can be a excellent accessory to have , but I much prefer the Dewalt flexible model to the pivot type flashlight because they really handle daily on the job abuse better and also have the add advantage of a long rubber cover flexible neck to wrap around object for better positioning . my preference be base on heavy use of both type of the 12v , 14.4 v and 18v model . most of the flexible model I currently own be several year old and have have many time more use than the pivot model ever will , for a good reason . although they have be pretty well beat up , all be still work fine and I could never say enough good thing about they . the on-off switch on all model be fairly well protected but can occasionally get stick in one position because of heavy dirt or mud buildup . the switch can be free up easily with the aid of a stiff part clean brush once the mud have dry . if you do a lot of work in crawl space or other area where dirt , mud , sand and grit can get ground into the pivot joint of the dw904 flashlight , it can eventually cause excessive wear at the joint and damage to the spring loaded electrical contact located there , cause the light to malfunction without warn at a most inopportune time . one day , I have just such a experience use the 12v dw904 while replace the motor on a circulator pump located about sixty foot back inside a crawl space under a hotel . the crawl space have absolutely no area lighting of its own and none of the natural light that you sometimes get through vent , so the dw904 be literally the only source of light to be have . about halfway into the job , I be in the process of adjust the flashlight head to better light the work area , when everything suddenly go pitch black . at first , I think , ... okay ... , maybe the bulb have just burn out . I would have to change the bulb in the dark once before so I new it could be do . feel my way around the flashlight , I carefully unscrew the lens and replace the bulb with a spare bulb store inside the flashlight head . the bulb be not the problem . I remember think , ... `` Heeere Lassie ! '' ... because there be no way I be go to be able to navigate my way around obstacle and get out of the crawl space without see where I be go . fortunately , I have a two-way radio with I and be able to get hold of someone up above to grab another flashlight and come down to where I be work . I do not think this situation be bring about by any flaw or defect in the dw904 so much as that it be just not design for any type of use that expose it be pivot joint to continuous abrasion from sand and dirt . the older Makita 9.6 v pivot type flashlight I use year ago where also susceptible to the same problem , although none of they ever go completely and totally dead on I like the Dewalt do . you could usually bang the Makita against a floor joist a few time and it would come back to life , at least temporarily . overall , if you plan to use you flashlight only in clean , dry location , the dw904 should be a good choice . on the other hand , if you plan to consistently use you flashlight in damp , dirty environment and other high abuse area , as most tradesman normally will , then one of Dewalt 's flexible flashlight model be definitely a better and much more appropriate choice .
979	Flashlight	POS	5	the name Maglite have always be know as the industry standard . do not waste you time on cheap flashlight , spend the money on this min lead flashlight and you will always have a dependable flashlight on you . woman can use in they purse or bag , especiall at night to see car lock or house lock or problem at night . this flashlight be not only for man , keep it in you office drawer in case of power failure or at home or in you car .
945	Flashlight	POS	5	you can never find a bulb for the sear craftsman flash light . it blow they out if you bump the flashlight . waste time !!! spend a little $ get the DEWALT I have 3 -lrb- SEARS be way to much $ -rrb- Amazon have best price for bulb too ! 18 volt .
115	Flashlight	NEU	3	i have a ryobus flashlight that need a new bulb & the replacement bulb be the dewalt one -lrb- that be what home depot tell I -rrb- . but i be turn away when i see the bulb be $ 8\/pair ... i think what a rip off ... so i go online & i see makita have a 18v bulb -lrb- p\/n a90261 -rrb- that be similar to the dewalt . and the best part be it be $ 3.50 \/ pair & i find at a website w \/ a $ 0.01 shipping ... could not beat that . i get the bulb last night & it fit in my ryobus flashlight w \/ out a problem . whaooo whoooo !!!
968	Flashlight	POS	5	to start , I be a tradesman who have to carry he lifeline on he belt . not only on the job , but I be also the unnofficial handyman of this apartment complex . every time I even move to take my workbelt off , it seem to be a signal for a neighbor to bang on the wall say something be on fire or will not open all the way . and the Mini mag be the universal flashlight . it be sell everywhere , include this fine site and even family store , and despite its legendary quality and design , be at the most ten dollar with include holster . I prefer the classic aa design , where CA not you find aa ? I have use one of these on my belt for about four year . it be a excellent tool , and I have never have one wear out on I . the bulb , however , be the Achilles heel . the rest of the flashlight be military , police and trade quality , for civilian price . but these dang bulb go orange after a couple week and last a couple month of casual use . I be consider shell out forty buck for a small led , just to save the money on bulb . then , walk through a sport outlet , I pass the flashlight section . and next to the usual Mini mag with holster , which I own close to six of , be a Nite ize accessory design for this same flashlight . a lead bulb . now , I have see these online for about twenty to thirty buck , and this be a ten dollar flashlight ! but this one just sit around on a shelf be eight buck , about a buck less than the flashlight 's shelf price . what the heck , I get one . to quote another review , my trusty old mag be now a state-of-the-art torch , with nearly triple battery life of the old bulb . and led , as all mag-hater know , do not burn out or even go out when bump . so , for a total of twenty buck , you get a american-quality led beam that compete and plain out whip fifty-dollar import with plastic casing . I would not recomend this flashlight if there be not there be a way to fix its biggest flaw . just get you hand on this led adapter , and put it in like you would the standard bulb . replace the mirror reflector , and stomp the old bulb into powder . you will not be need they , ever again . there be also a combo pack availiable , for the same price , that include a push-button adapter if you have ever wish you could tap a red button on the end instead of twist it on and off . I have not try it , but it come with the LED , and for eight buck ? and hey , the flashlight itself come in six different color . these thing be easily replace if one get bang up or you room-mate\/girlfriend draw all over it with sharpie while she be on the phone . I have have these work perfectly even they have be through Hades and back , but some prefer a more formal-looking flashlight . just take the lead out and put it in the new one , those bulb last forever . and now , so will this flashlight .
229	Flashlight	POS	5	what more can I say - it ' a a MagLite & it work in Sub-Zero Deg f - -rrb- `` no surprise '' . a few suggestion for the unknow on the use of the mode : full power : for distance work - full saturation 25 % power : use during reading ; close work not blind by surface reflection ; extend usage Strobe : Beacon for warn or attention when use color lens -lrb- optional -rrb- ; search & rescue locator SOS : Beacon for search & rescue locator finally , later model tail cap permit a lanyard to be attach . why MagLite put out the earlier led model with the `` FLAT Tail Cap '' be beyond I .
777	Flashlight	POS	4	all in all , give the price , it be worth it . use it just as a pen light it have sufficient power and battery life for it be design purpose .
151	Flashlight	POS	5	I have have one of these for a while . it be very reliable , durable & convinient because of it be size . the worst that have ever happen to my maglite be for the bulb to break when I be busy mess around with it .
286	Flashlight	POS	5	securely hold mag light . I give these with new lead mag light as a gift to my Dad , he love the whole setup . as he have get older he would never be able to find a flashlight , now they be always in the same place . a little tight to remove and replace but loosen up with some use .
712	Flashlight	NEU	3	the main flaw with this light would have be trivial in the recent past . compare to other way of provide light , even DeWalt way , this be not a effective solution . I buy this to have a work light that also use the 18v power pack from my various DeWalt 18v tool . so far so good . but it really burn some power , it get quite warm and the light do not last as long and be not as bright as you would hope . I also have the DeWalt dc527 fluorescent light , it provide a much better work light , last longer and be easier to use to get light on you work . by comparison to the dc527 this be a uneven and yellowish light . this be more compact than the dc527 though , and it provide better range , fluorescent provide more white light , but only at limited range .
371	Flashlight	NEU	3	it be good flashlight , but not be the better lead . you can find flashlight with Cree xm-l t6 with more power .
226	Flashlight	POS	5	this flashlight be a wonder of modern technology . I love it , Maglite rock . item be ship quick and there be no issue with the item . thank you .
10	Flashlight	POS	5	I have purchase 5 unit . they be a excelent value and make excellent life time gift . I have 5 thankful friend that I think enough of they to purchase these for they .
200	Flashlight	POS	4	the amount of illumination this small light provide compare favorably with that from a double-d-cell flashlight use a krypton bulb , which be probably what most folk expect from a general-purpose light . that say , compare one to another be tricky because of difference in the beam . a standard flashlight project a strong center spot surround by a broad halo of rather dim and often uneven light . however , with its much smaller reflector and led , the Mini-Maglite produce a strong center spot with a halo that be both much narrower and considerably brighter than its counterpart . therefore , one of the way I compare the two light source be to aim each at the white ceiling of a darkened room while observe the amount of reflect illumination of the furnishings . unlike the yellowish light emit by incandescent bulb , the LED in the Mini-Maglite provide a brilliant , white light that seem to be quite close to daylight in color temperature . it do not suffer from the distinct bluish tint common to many high-brightness led . the light output from this led light be much greater than that of the incandescent version of the Mini-Mag , which I also have . I measure initial current drain from a set of fresh aa battery at around 500ma , compare to somewhat over 300mA in the regular Mini-Mag . the company claim the light use a 3-watt led -lrb- as rate by supplier -rrb- , but it would appear that even with a new set of alkaline battery the actual energy use will not exceed half that rating . Furthur , my measurement indicate the power will likely decline by half again once the battery have start to become weak . of course , one can not expect miracle from two small battery and the reduction be likely a balance between high output and power usage . I would expect several hour of strong light , with slowly diminish output until the battery be exhaust . like the regular version , this mini-maglite be operate by unscrew the head slightly to activate a internal switch . furthur rotation will focus the beam somewhat as the reflector move outward . there be not a great deal of difference in the lead version , and very much twist simply reduce the overall light output . the head may actually be remove and use as a base to support the light in candle mode . this be make possible by the elimination of a lanyard like be attach to the tail cap of the standard Mini-Mag . as owner of several multi-led flashlight , I have learn that one big advantage to have a single led be the narrow , project beam it provide . that feature come in handy when you be walk at night and want to see some distance ahead . the light in the sp2201h package come with a holster for carry the flashlight lens-up on a belt or perhaps hang it from a nail . two Duracell battery be also include . I have read that other folk have encounter problem with the switch be intermittant , and I must admit that the flashlight do not work well with another brand of battery I install during testing . mostly make in the USA , the flashlight carry a limited lifetime warranty that exclude burnout of the led module . improper installation of the battery may destroy this item , so be very careful . if have a slender light that weigh less than a third of the typical flashlight , yet illuminate just as well appeal to you , then I think you 'll be please with the Mini-Maglite LED .
869	Flashlight	NEG	1	I buy one of these several year ago and it break within a couple of month . a couple of month ago I decide to try again , within 3 week it be break , never again .
891	Flashlight	NEG	2	I be want a good small flash light I can use when work on my car , have previous buy a maglite 3-d flash light , I want to buy another Maglite . but this mini flash light be not bright at all , and the beam be very small . the cheap chinese flash light I buy be brighter then this one . overall I be very unsatisfied with this product .
767	Flashlight	POS	5	I have own a lot of these little maglite over the year , and I keep come back to they . they be great flashlight and be very dependable ! the holster be handy if you want to carry it on a belt . for the price , I definitely recommend this flashlight !
380	Flashlight	POS	5	this be a great flashlight . Maglite make a very tough light and hold up well to anything you can throw at it . this be the second one I have have . the only reason I get a new one be the battery leak in the old unit and I could not get they out . I would highly recommend this to anyone .
491	Flashlight	POS	5	I buy this for my security job and it make carry my 3d maglite easier especially while carry 3 set of key .
585	Flashlight	POS	5	these bracket hold my flashlight in place in my jeep next to the driver seat . even on rough trail the light have never come loose . in addition to my Maglite , they hold my large survival knife and seat belt cutter -lrb- the loop for a belt go over the clamp before the flashlight go in -rrb- and I have have no issue for over a year . I buy a second set to mount another 3d maglite in my camper . I have the flashlight mount upright so if I need light in the middle of the night , but do not want to use the 12 volt , I just push the button and light the whole trailer , flashlight in place . the price have about double by the time I buy the second set , but at less than $ 5.00 they be a bargain .
849	Flashlight	POS	5	quede impresionado con el tama & ntilde ; o de la linterna !! es de muy buena calidad y resistente !! gracia Amazon !! lo recomiendo ampliamente !!!
132	Flashlight	POS	4	now these bracket be worth the cost . I use they to mount my 4d size maglight on my crash bar of my Harley . have not have any issue and I ride all over the place . just zip tie they on and clip in flashlight .
949	Flashlight	POS	5	I use these bracket in the exist threaded hole of my BMW e90 trunk lid . the hole be for a reflective emergency triangle that do not come with my car . the spacing -lrb- use only one of the 2 hole in each bracket -rrb- be perfect for a 3 d-cell maglite . I even use the screw that come with the kit -lrb- although I 'll probably swap they for the proper thread bolt in BLACK to clean it up a bit . these bracket have just the right amount of grip and even a hard slam of the trunk lid do not dislodge the fairly heavy flashlight . the impression in the trunk lid will probably accomodate a 4 or 5 d-cell light if such a beast exist .
2	Flashlight	NEG	1	I buy this flashlight after see all the advertising for Maglite . what a disappointment ! it be small and put out maybe 20 lumen of light , if that . the lumen be so low that Maglite never even list the lumen on any of its product , unlike its competitor . this thing might make a decent booklight but that be not what I buy it for . for the same price at this over-hyped , underperformer I could get a flashlight 5x as powerful !
416	Flashlight	POS	5	when this product arrive at my doorstep it be exactly what i expect . I would definitely recomend it . it be a very long and heavy flash light . if that be what you be look for , this be perfect .
739	Flashlight	NEG	1	I purchase this light a week ago from Home Depot for almost $ 25 and it no longer work . do everything Maglite recommend and still no luck . Problem be either the tail cap or the barrel\/switch . light flash intermittently when tighten the tail cap after battery replacement , but once the tail cap be tight , the light no longer work . what a disappointing product from Maglite . I just go to Sports Authority and find a Nite Ize lead upgrade for my old Mini Maglight and that have be work flawlessly . it do not have the same intensity or the beam focus as the mag lead , but at least it work . P.S. I forget to mention the extremely poor battery life . lead light be by theory suppose to last longer than krypton bulb . not so with this light . I be lucky to get 4 hour out of mine . this may have be cause by the problem mention above , but my Nite Ize upgrade have last almost 8 hour now , and no sign of wear down .
537	Flashlight	POS	5	this be simply the best flash light I have ever use . really like the light focus feature and solid feel .
645	Flashlight	POS	5	once you use this light you will never go back . I have be use the Mag Charger Lite for a little over 1 year and I have never see a brighter lite . it be performance have be wonderful charge after charge .
908	Flashlight	POS	5	as a police officer with over twenty year on the job , I can honestly say this mag be the best flashlight in the business ! I have use nothing else for the last twelve year . it be candle power turn the darkest area into daylight . the light 's design make it possible to keep the light hold under the arm easily when both hand be busy , supply a continuous stream of light . this be the perfect flashlight for camping -- it take drop and bang effortlessly and live to shine another day ! I be order a second one to keep in my car . it be easily keep charge with the lighter adaptor .
235	Flashlight	POS	5	this be a great product consider the price . sure you 'll always find better Luxeon lead flashlight , but none that can turn into a candle . the flashlight be great for blackout , for any night activity , and it beat the led upgrade kit for the regular Mini mag . it emit a bright , far-traveling light that will not disappoint you . it also have the cool feature that even though we be deal with lead light , MagLite manage to retain the focusability feature of the flashlight , and the ability to change from spotlight to floodlight . the performance be way better than the regular minus mag . you do not get those annoying rings\/dark dull patch of distorted light . this flashlight produce a focus , uniform circle of light . Pretty neat for the price . use it for everyday task , and make sure you keep one in the car . although it be a great tool , I would not recommend it for tactical use . other than that it be great -lrb- although it be true that it lack a orifice on which to attach a lanyard -rrb- . either way , you should not be disappoint with this new addition to the MagLite family .
452	Flashlight	POS	4	if you be only allow to have one flashlight in you home , make it a maglite . it may not be the brightest flashlight in the market ; but it 'll do just fine within a 150 foot . Wish I could get a 6 c cell maglite .
771	Flashlight	POS	5	mag Lite hold a industry standard that speak for itself . Amazon just get they to the consumer at a cheap price !
344	Flashlight	POS	4	I hav not try many other d-ring but this one work just fine . hold well and do exactly what i expect and need it to do
422	Flashlight	POS	5	I need a small flashlight for work and have go through many , many aa size flashlight . I just notice these 2aa lead maglite in the store and decide to try one out . I be not sure how bright it would be because besides the 3 watt label , mag do not really state the brightness of the light . when I get home I be pleasantly surprise . this light be at least 5 time brighter than a regular 2aa maglite and it be also brighter than any other -lrb- include lead -rrb- flashlight I have use . and what matter more , compare to the regular bulb maglite , the beam on the LED light focus perfectly to a even circle . no more dark area . the one thing I miss be the little hole in the endcap which can be use for lanyard or keyring . also the lead version be a tad bit longer than the bulb version , but for the huge performance gain , I 'll gladly have a slightly larger flashlight . I can not comment on the battery usage yet , as I have not have to change battery yet , a good sign ... and I be so glad that I do not have to worry about the little bulb burn out every so often anymore . I can highly recommend this light , it be well worth the money if you need a good flashlight . I do wish that the other color be available as show on mag 's website . Amazon or any other local store just seem to have the black version .
415	Flashlight	POS	5	on the technical detail be mention charger 110 volt , also on the Maglite web-site be mention two type of charger one for 110 volt and one for european 230 volt . the actual charger mention however 100-240 ac 50\/60 hz . which mean the charger be universal and can be use all over the world . the only difference between the 110 volt model and the 230 volt model be the plug type on the charger . the 110 volt come with the american flat pin and the 230 volt with the european round pin . so if you be go to another country , like on vacation , the only thing you need be a plug adapter to fit the charger into the wall outlet . the charger adjust itself to the voltage on the wall outlet .
363	Flashlight	POS	5	this be the perfect size light to carry with you in you pocket , for whatever you need to do . in my case , I use it to examine patient in my work as a doctor . the beam be strong and it have not fail I yet . highly recommend - with mag , you can not go wrong .
810	Flashlight	POS	4	we like the mag-lite led flashlight a lot ; that be why we purchase two more so we could have they in the car in case of a emergency . only disappointing thing thus far be that the battery life be not as long as I have be lead to believe ; maybe Rayovac battery be really poor ; I 'll try another brand and see if there be a difference .
144	Flashlight	POS	5	excellant product ! durable , perform as advertise , look great , include all warranty and instructional paperwork . Great buy ! Ron m
207	Flashlight	POS	4	nothing beat a maglite . solid construction that will last forever ! can you get a brigther smaller flash light ? sure , but can you do it for under -lrb- ... -rrb- buck or even under -lrb- ... -rrb- ? the add length and weight also make this a great defensive weapon if need .
365	Flashlight	POS	5	hus i be impress with the service they give . Kept I update the whole way would buy off they again
255	Flashlight	POS	5	anyone who live as far out in the rural countryside as I do get accustom to power interruption , whether they be due to down power line from ice storm , someone hit a key telephone pole and knock out a transformer , or be the result of one of the occassional electrical storm we have during the warmer month of the year . in any and all of these circumstance I can always depend on my collection of mag-light to see I through the darkness of the house in order to light my well-used candle and oil lamp until the power be finally restore . I also have one in each of my two truck , and when I recently narrowly miss hit a startled deer late at night and go off the road into a muddy field , the trusty mag light be invaluable in help I find a winching point to pull myself out of the muddy gully . so , whether it be a venture down into the blacken hole my basement become late at night , or find my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night , I can always depend on my mag light to candle-power my way wherever I be go . I have three or four of the larger one like the one display here , but actually have more than five or six of the smaller one as well . I love mine , and although I seem to misplace at least one or two a year , I always have a ample supply of both mag-light and replacement battery because I find they be absolutely essential out here in the wood . get one today .
149	Flashlight	POS	5	i have a mag lite and love the quality . . the firm click of the off\/on button be satisfy and a sign of suberb craftsmanship ! i do wish that maglite would make a head lamp model and\/or a tripod option to assist in hand free situation ! other wise the cost be minimal if one consider that these flash light will survive we life time ... i would bet that the designer at maglite will soon offer we a hand free model , but til then i will light my way with maglite ! thank you for reading and consider my opinion !
578	Flashlight	POS	5	I buy this flashlight , base on my experience with mag-lite , to use as a dependable emergency flashlight for my car . it fit the bill as a sturdy well build product . I also have one -lrb- 2d-cell -rrb- in my other car too . this 3c-cell unit be actually only 1-inch longer than the equivalent 2d-cell mag-lite and be lighter too . it be 11 '' long , so check you glove compartment dimension if you intend to store it there .
820	Flashlight	POS	5	I have have mag light over the year and far as I can tell I will continue to buy they . I work as a handyman . I never know what I will be do from week to week . a good flashlight be worth its weight in gold to I . I have have my 2aa lead light now for just over 3 month now . it have be in crawl space , some of they dry . countless non light basement . I really like the fact you can reduce the power , use it as a strobe , SOS , or a regular flashlight . Great think on mag 's part . all in all , they be worth the money . if anyone be look for a great gift idea for just about any guy , this be it . ok I know there be a lot of gal out there that would think they be cool too . talk about a great stock stuffer .
173	Flashlight	POS	5	I have several d-cell mag light and one aa-cell mag light , but the former be too large and the latter too small to grab and run check on this or that when the need arise . the c-cell light be just the right size . I be please to see a history channel egyptologist carry the same one , a few month after I buy mine .
529	Flashlight	NEG	2	I buy this base on the name and the review . disappoint in the flashlight , not only do it work sometimes but it be not even that bright . most of the time I go to turn it on and nothing happen , even if I unscrew the cap all the way for candle mode I still get nothing . it happen the very first time I try it so it have not be abuse or drop in any way . disappoint on the lack of quality in the pricey flashlight .
