highly recommended

Too heavy for an all purpose light.

These lights are over rated in my book. I know Mag-Lite is supposed to be a great product but for what it is it is impractical for most everyday uses. I also find the quality of light produced to be a bit poor when the lens is fully dilated and too concentrated when not. I after using this I would without a thought go with a cheap plastic light over this one.

For a cop or security officer I can see them using this flash lite. It serves two functions, a source of light and a last effort personal security device. For this reason it is a good flash lite for your car.

For everyday use it is way to big and much to heavy. For an aluminum light you would think it would be a bit more sturdy. I've dropped many a plastic light in my time and 90% of the time it still works. Every time I drop this Mag-Lite from hip level the bulb breaks. I chalk this up for being Aluminum and offering no absorption of the shock of the fall.

When your in a high stress situation you want a light that can take a beating. Lets be honest here when your using a flashlight your in the dark, you senses are limited and your more vulnerable to walking into things and dropping your light. If your in a darkened situation and you lose your only source of light then you up a certain creek.

For the every day use I recommend going with a plastic flashlight, and yes a more durable light. Just because the casing is strong the bulbs are still sensitive lacking the proper material to absorb the shock and save the bulb makes this a poorly designed light for your normal everyday uses. It should be labeled a specialty light.

Very Good Flashlight

I didn't order this flashlight through Amazon; I bought it at Lowes. However, I read a lot of reviews of this flashlight at Amazon. I decided to go with this flashlight because it's an LED and I heard a lot of good things about it. It's true what everyone says- the LED is really bright, energy efficient, the casing is very hard and sturdy. Not a lot of people will tell you how strong the beam is actually at night. I tried this flashlight at night, shining the beam from across a large field into a canopy of trees. When it's in spotlight mode, the beam projects very far. I also tried it in completely dark rooms and it lights the whole room up while in floodlight mode. In conclusion, if you're looking for a flashlight that's effective at seeing things a far way off, as well as close up, this is a great product.

Maglite 3-D LED Flashlight

This and the 3AA LED are the BEST combo of flashlights if you live in rural area. Recent purchase of 3D LED loaded with cells that were dim in a conventional flashlight produced a bright beam. I own 3 or 4 of the 3D LED units. I replaced a 4 D LED that worked flawlessly but went dead, the "Name Brand" D cells had coroded and ruined the tube. SO..a good practice would be to inspect the cells periodically. I wrap my tubes with Friction tape for a better grip.

Really bright, durable

I was first introduced to Mag-Lite's in law enforcement use almost thirty years ago and have always been impressed with their rugged reliability and quality construction, so it was the first brand I looked at when I decided to get a LED flashlight. Before ordering, I was a little concerned about the single LED, since 3 watts doesn't seem like a lot, but this sucker is bright! In fact, it seems just as bright the old Mag-Lite "Krypton" bulbs, and you don't have to constantly replace batteries! I have no idea how long the batteries will last, but with just a 3 watt draw, it should be a long time. Another advantage of the single LED is that it can be focused to a really tight beam if desired. Of course, as with all Mag-Lites, it can be adjusted to a flood if necessary. I highly recommend this flashlight, and, as a bonus, Mag-Lite's are "Made in the USA".
