i ordered this mag to replace my older one that wasnt LED. i wanted the brighter light that uses less battery!!
got it in quick time (love amazon.com sellers!!) and just left it in package for a while (was maybe going to give as christmas present).
christmas passed when i saw my package on shelf and figured might as well put the batteries in it and keep it.
and wouldnt you just know it, next day we had an island while blackout!! I live in Hawaii and our electric company is still in stone ages.
all i can say is this tiny light is amazing! i turned it on, then u unscrew the top and use that as a stand. the flashlight sits on the base and turns into a small lamp!! OMG, that little flashlight lit up my whole livingroom! the amount of light coming from it was amazing!
it didnt even seem like out power went out.

so, if u even are in need of an awesome, small light that really shines, buy this one!!

I bought several LED Maglites this year. The Mini 2-AA LED (this one) had already been dropped several times and hasn't even flickered, the light is very bright and the batteries last(over 7 hours on the Mini, and not even beginning to dim yet).

I also bought a 3-Watt 2-D cell LED Maglite (from a local store), and it throws brilliant light a considerable distance. The 2-D LED Maglite also was not phased by being dropped, even though it fell some 15 feet onto concrete. The housing was slighly dented on one edge from the impact, but no other damage occured.

I use a flashlight in my work pretty much everyday. I bought this hoping for the best. What a disappointment... The light starts out sort of bright, but if you leave it on for more than 5 minutes, the light output drops significantly. Plus, it does not "focus" or "zoom". It is pretty much a piece of junk. I gave it to my kid who likes it, but he liked the broken flashlight he had before just as much.

After having several other LED flashlights all I can say is this one takes the prize, and is the best I've found. It has all the battery and light life that you would expect from this technology with the build and focus-ability you would expect from MAG. Most other LED flashlights are only good for close range situations, while this one does both close range and long range thanks to MAG's twist focus capability. So get this one, even if it's a couple of bucks more.

It's also nice that it's made in the USA.

I like the features when I did some research and the fact they're not made in China like most of the LED flashlights out in the market. It had great intensity and worked well until the switch started to intermitently misfire then not light up anymore, not even through the 1st set of batteries. I bought 2 and both went bad after about 2 months. I'm sending them back to Mag Instrument for warranty repairs and hope they fixed the problem. I would not recommend this light to anyone, not even my worst enemy.
