MagLiteML50L LED Flashlight

True to MagLite's history, this flashlight is solidly built, very bright, easy to move between spot and flood light, has programmable switch options and is easy to hold.Would highly recommend.

Needed a flashlight for late night dog walks and this works perfectly! Nice and small to make it easy to carry, and very bright!

bright, solid flashlight. gave as goft and recipient was pleased

Good size all alloy flashlight, fitz perfect into my Utility Belt Holder and is as bright as my Str-eamlight, I would have posted a picture but Amazon system keeps failing to go to camera.

After buying a bunch of crap flashlights over the years, I decided to go with a premium model, MagLite, and I definitely don't regret it. It works great, is very bright, and I love it.

***Updated: January 27, 2017***I've had the flashlight a little while now and have learned a couple of additional things about this flashlight.1. When your batteries start to run low, you lose the brightest setting. So if your 1st click was brightest, 2nd was medium, and 3rd was lowest, when your batteries are starting to get low, the 1st and 2nd clicks will just be medium brightness. When they get really low, all 3 clicks will just be the lowest brightness.2. The Quick Focus is nice, but I wish that finest focus was be all the way at one end and the widest all the way at the other. Unfortunately, it's not this way. The finest focus is in between the ends, for some reason.Downgrading from 5 stars to 4 stars because, while I still really like the flashlight, it's not "perfect".***Original Review***My kids and I "played" with this flashlight all last night to give it a good testing and so far, I really like it.The first thing I noticed about the flashlight was the size of it compared to it's Lumens, Beam Distance, and battery life. I feel that, for its size and the fact that it only uses 2 "C" batteries, the Lumens, Beam Distance, and battery life are excellent. I feel that this flashlight is perfectly balanced between size and functionality.This is my first LED Maglite. All my previous Maglites have been incandescent. I like that I will never have to change the bulb in this flashlight, as the LED is expected to last more hours than I will likely ever use this flashlight for (50,000 hours minimum).My old incandescent Maglites have a head that turns and turns. This flashlight has a Quick Focus feature that allows you to change the focus of the beam from narrow to wide with only a 1/4 turn of the head, which I think is great. Additionally, the head is unable to turn any further than this 1/4 distance, so you only have the 1/4 distance to move the head back and forth in. I find this helpful in learning what positions the head needs to be in in order to quickly achieve the desired beam focus you're looking for.My 1 year old daughter dropped the flashlight on the wooden floor from about a 1 foot height and it continued to function normally. I'm glad to see that the slightest bump like this didn't kill the flashlight. I would have been extremely disappointed if such a small drop did kill it. I don't plan to drop the flashlight often, obviously, but it does happen.I'm using  Odec C Rechargeable Batteries, Deep Cycle 5000mAh NiMH Battery Pack(4 Pack)  in the flashlight and it's working well with these so far. The flashlight has a Lumens rating of 490. We turned it on on High in a dark bedroom and, wow, did it light up the entire room! I love that I should get around 15 hours of use even on this High setting and around 112 hours on the lowest Eco setting. To me, that is amazing!We took the flashlight outside and did a distance test in the dark. We are about 700 feet away from the Stop sign at the corner of our street. We could not see the Stop sign in the night, but when shining the flashlight in that direction, we could clearly see the Stop sign. Impressive.Switching the flashlight between the 4 Activity Based Function Sets is really simple. I know that the instructions make it sound like knowing how far to unscrew the tail cap is a bit of a guessing game, but it doesn't need to be. Just hold down the on/off button first, which will turn the flashlight on. Continue holding the button down and then unscrew the tail cap just enough to turn the flashlight off. Then, while still holding the on/off button down, screw the tail cap all the way back in. Now you're in the programming sequence and the flashlight will cycle through the available Activity Based Function Sets for you to choose from. There are a couple of things I don't like about the Activity Based Function Sets, though.My 1st dislike is that there is no Activity Based Function Set which allows you to have the Eco setting tied to the 1st click of the on/off button. Actually, being able to program the on/off button for each of the 1, 2, and 3 click settings separately would have been ideal, but this is not an option. The 2nd dislike is regarding the Multi-Mode functionality itself. It can be a bit difficult sometimes to click 2, or 3, times in a row to get to the right setting you want. You really do need to be fully aware of which setting you are trying to get to *before* you start clicking the on/off button. It does take some practice and decisive clicking. I do like that the on/off button is extremely quiet when clicked, though.Overall, as you can tell, I really like this flashlight, and the price makes it even that much better. (I paid $35.) I don't think that I will personally be going back to the "D sized Maglites anytime soon, as this "C" sized Maglite is such a perfect balance in all areas that are important to me.

This is a great flashlight, have a few of the larger ones but this ones is perfect for grabbing and heading out the door with. The light is bright and the flashlight is durable. Love it !

Great flashlight- does what it is supposed to do and it is really well made.

Buena linterna hasta el momento funciona muy bien

During a power outage some time ago, I went to a local store that had their own generator, to shop. Was looking to replace D and AA batteries but stocks were depleted completely, I then noticed that the C batteries were still available, I had no flashlights that used these type of batteries. I have remedied that, now with this C cell Maglite I have an extremely functional flashlight, very bright and solidly built.Going to get another one for myself as my wife claimed the first one (family first).I do have D and AA Maglites also as there is no need to limit oneself.

Professional quality as always from MagliteA more portable lighter version than theD cellExtremely bright Ilumination of beam pattern.Well impressed

Diese Mag-Lite war ein Geburtstagsgeschenk für jemand der eine Taschenlampe mit Batterien benötigt.Die Anforderungen waren wie üblich bei einer Taschenlampe: Robust, Haltbar, Licht.Der Markt ist voll von Herstellern aus unterschiedlichen Regionen der Welt, aber die Kultmarke Mag-Lite trumpft mit sehr guter Verarbeitung und Haltbarkeit, was durch eine 10 jährige Garantie bestätigt wird.Der Test war/ist überzeugend, die Leuchtstärke ist mehr als gut, das Waldstück am Haus ist taghell, auch in 200-300 Meter entfernung kommt richtig Licht an.Für mich ergibt sich hier eine gute Mischung aus optimaler Größe/hoher Qualität und extrem guter Leuchtstärke, auch wenn andere Marken bestimmt einige Punkte übertreffen ist es hier das Gesamtpaket was stimmt.Der Versand war Amazon-typisch extrem schnell (1 Tag).

Die Taschenlampe ist perfekt !
