There may be better options out there now, but there's a reason I still went for this brand- familiarity and durability. I carried the old incandescent Maglite mini everywhere I went, and then picked up this LED version nearly two years ago. I have carried this flashlight with me nearly every single day for those two years now and it still works and looks great. It has a few small scuffs, but it doesn't impact performance. Some people ask me why I carry a flashlight, and my answer is that this is much brighter than phone camera lights, it has an independent battery from my phone, so it's not eating into that, I can set it in places I wouldn't want my phone to go, and I can very quickly and easily pull it out and turn it on, way before anyone else can get their phone light on. I love the size of this light and the shape, I like that it takes AA batteries instead of some internal LiPo that will eventually lose all charge and die, however I know that lights that take 18650's exist in plenty now, although this light costs less than many of those. While this light may not be as fancy as some others on the market, the KISS principle really applies, and I like my tools simple and functional. This is simple, this is functional, this is my EDC. It may not be for everyone, but it fits my use case.

Excellent light quality. Powerful very durable. Only drawback is that the cap that holds the batteries in tends to come loose which makes the light go out. I usually use my pliers to tighten and lock it in place

The Very Best Small and Brightest Maglite Flashlight I have ever seen at a EXCELLENT PRICE, 5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ !!!!!

So far just love it!!! Kinda wish they used the new push button on their Ultrabright led instead of the old twist on/off. Even right out of the package, for some reason, the light wouldn't light??? Kinda had to twist, twist and twist and then finally. Even now about two, three weeks in, it still doesn't light once in a while and I have to fiddle and twist and then it lights. I've always seen this with the twist style on/off they use on all of their lights...I've got a lot;) It's a connection problem, contact problem, not sure if it's paint on the threads or what, oil even maybe...they need to get rid of this type of on/off finally on all their products...the push buttons on their larger lights is so nice, come on guys.Ok the light...a buddy of mine had just gotten their regular AA LED version and I new I had to make the jump. Well after searching I found out that they have this "Ultrabright" LED version that puts out 226 Lumens compared to 69 Lumens of their "standard" AA LED light and for what, 2 bucks more!! Now I see while trying to get my facts right for this review that they have a 245 Lumen AA led version available....but for almost $7.00 more! I can't see that being worth it for me. Actually, I've almost found this light to...almost be a bit "to" bright! When holding it as a co-worker turns a bolt, pipe ect or what ever it really "shines" almost to bright especially if there is a wall right behind where we're working;) No ones ever complained, I actually point it a little off target to keep from blinding them;) I can hardly imagine that that could be possible but it's true...but I love it;)"Focus", this thing really "doesn't" seem to focus! It's just bright, while trying to use the normal twist to focus, it is only slight and almost imperceptibly changes but certainly not a deal breaker. By no means is the beam "broad and wide but it doesn't get the "tight" pattern that their non led AA mini does ...it would be sweet if they could get the focus working.Except for the twist on/off not always lighting the first time, this is an awesome mini flashlight. It was a little embarrassing when I tried to show it off to my buddy against his new regular led light when I couldn't get mine to light, well, eventually;) Just a note, This light is just a bit "longer" then the regular version, actually about 3/4+ of an inch longer/taller and I have noticed it a few times on my belt against my hip...probably have had the same experience with the regular standard ones but this one a few more times. I've worn the regular version for years now at work every day. p.s, get this thing, I might buy one of those push button kits, lol;) maybe not;)Ok, now after owning the light for several months and now that our company actually purchased them for the guys, a safety thing really. I heard the guys right of the get go complaining about the light, not lighting!! ;) I tried to explain to them that I had the same issue initially and actually still do. A great "bright" light and of course not having to basically ever replace the "bulb", I give it a 95 our of 100 but that not lighting is a darn shame, have to twist the bottom, ect. Not sure if it gets "opened" while in the pouch or what but it sure happens "all" the time ;( Darn Maglight, you guys can do better then this. Again, a sweet light but so darn aggravating ;) Still recommending it for sure but taking a star away, sorry guys, you still have a little work to do on this baby.

this brand speaks for itself maglite has been a trusted brand for many decades they continue to put quality products out on the market this is a very lightweight flashlight that I would recommend anyone own for EDC at 320 lumens it's bright enough to offer quite a bit of utility it utilizes either double or triple a batteries I can't remember but they are very common and easily replaced

ハロゲン電球の旧世代ミニマグライトは15～20度ほど回すと点灯したが今回のLEDのミニマグProでは90度以上回さないと点灯しません自分にとってはこれは良い改良点です。ミニマグの操作に慣れている人ならばこの差でも片手で点灯させるのに不自由はありません前回購入した電球式ミニマグ(当時￥5800+3％の消費税)から20年近く経っての再購入ですがLEDになった事とヘッドが長くなった事意外は大きな変更が無いのでヒップホルスターやランヤード、自転車装着器具、全ての電球式時代のMAG社純正周辺機器が使用可能ですリフレクターの設計がかなり良くなった様子で電球式時代の二重のリング状照射と汚いデッドスポットが粗無くなっています照明の全く無い野球のグラウンドでバッターボックスに立ってライトスタンドのポールが照らす事が出来たので長射程も延びていますね昔のミニマグ使用世代としてはこの上なく良い商品と喜びひときわ使用LEDも安価な中華製品のｷﾞﾗｷﾞﾗした安っぽい白ではなく視認性の良い穏やかな白色でこれも良フェンスまでの距離25mで光の色合いと照らし方を試しで撮ってみました比較商品はOlightS1A+14500のMAX600ルーメン一枚目のミニマグの270ルーメンは色がきれいですね～拡散でも照らす範囲少し狭いかな？二枚目はミニマグのスポット、25ｍ地点のフェンスの奥の樹まで光が届いているがどうでしょう？三枚目がOlightS1A。二本とも三脚に自転車用マウントで固定して同じ位置から照らしてみました

I purchased this along with the incandescent 2AA version from Amazon. The latter I returned straight away. The LED version is SO MUCH BETTER. It is a perfect torch for many situations. It does not have any modes but I was happy to have something simple with just a quick twist for on and off. It is seriously bright!!

La torcia è molto ben fatta con materiali di qualità, di dimensioni tascabili, molto potente. Utilizza delle comunissime pile stilo. L'unico appunto che mi sento di fare è la mancanza di possibilità di concentrare il fascio luminoso oltre una certa misura. Sono talmente soddisfatto del prodotto che a piu' riprese ne ho comperate tre.

There's endless torches on here. Endless. with so many claims and so many just don't meet those to varying degrees.Its nice Maglight have caught up with better LED technology.It's full Maglight quality and durability.Its nice and bright and as Maglight, its as bright as it claims.Doesn't claim to be millions of lumens as others on here, but they don't deliver on that.It takes standard batteries. Personal preference on this, bigger fancier batteries can drive more power from other torches. But then they need to be charged.I travel with this, so the ability to easily get new batteries is important.Power to weight is good.Go to The Torchsite co uk and get a glass breaking end cap for it.Rounds off the versatility of it, if one ever needs to break a window, especially a double glazed on, it can do it when just banging on it with a normal torch is not likely to break it.Finally, like with the old bulb models, the end screws off and it can stand up and illuminate a room like a candle, where as I don't think any? of the others do this as they only throw light forward.

Flashlight arrived when promised. Took it out at night. Lighted my way very nicely. Small enough to carry easily.
