Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
I'd read many good things about this light and think it is a very attractive design. Over the years, I've had three of these little maglites and when they work, they work well. But all three of mine have failed for various reasons. I've taken them apart, replaced the bulbs, batteries, exchanged parts, etc. to no avail. After my first experience, I should have learned my lesson but I bought this light again and again only to be dissapointed twice more. I now need another light and will look elswhere this time.

OK, here's the deal. Look at what this light will cost you then compare to an LED light. Compare the light output as well; they are the same. This thing is almost indestructible, too. No, I would not rely on this as my only light, but for something to keep handy, it gets top marks. The only draw back I find is the filament may break. That is the one thing I can say in favor of LED lights. After a REALLY LONG time, I'm finally replacing my old one, but only because I lost it!

Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
This thing is one rock-solid flashlight. It works for everything. Forget expensive LED's, this gets the job done. I own at least two (there may be others hiding in my garage somewhere). It's not the lightest thing I've ever seen, but I'd take this over some dinky headlamp that's gonna break right when you're trying to get your campfire started.

I bought this light at the last minute when my Surefire died. This one performed, well, average. The beam is not the most powerful, and it can take a while to find what focus you want the beam at.
Invest in a good Fenix or Surefire light instead, LED's are much better.

Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
Not much point in buying an incandescent light these days. A quality LED light will run 5-10x longer on a set of batteries, and be MUCH brighter, and have higher quality of light. This light is dim, has a horrible beam, drains batteries fast, and bulbs dont last long. Do you really want to be changing a bulb in the dark, during an emergency?

Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
I have had this light for about 5 months and i love it. It has great light output for its size and it is very durable. One of the only problems that I had with it ( not a big issue) was the first bulb breaking with i took the cap off to see how to candle setting did. But hey, you can get another pack for like 2.50 , right? Anyways, if you want a reliable light that doesn't cost a lot...buy this one!

Very durable flashlight. Its always handy to have around, easy on/off, can be spot or flood light, and the extra bulb in the endcap has been very helpful. There are also numerous accessories made to fit this light. Maglites may not be the best for lightweight camping, but I highly recommend them for just about any other use. I have 2 of these AA, 1 AAA, and 2 2D size, and no complaints.

Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
This is one of my favorite flashlights. It is small enough to fit into a drawer or to use on a small desk. I am using it in my home office for supplementary light. I had to lubricate the threads on the tail and the head pieces but otherwise it is a very good flashlight.

Comments about MagLite Mini Maglite AA Flashlight with Holster:
Picked up one of these at REI probably a year ago and put it in my backpack as one of the ten essentials. Hadn't used it at all until this past weekend. Batteries were still fresh, light was as bright as new. I have always liked MagLite products, as they are well made and have always been trouble free for me. Tremendous value for the price.

Great flashlight!
Easy to hold, use and adjust.
Shines bright, dependable performance.
Feels solid! Nearly unbreakable!
Just get a few of them - you will find places to use each of them, or give as gifts!
