MAGLITE S2D096 Heavy-Duty 2-D Cell Flashlight, Gray
Best flashlight around
Are you sick of flashlights that die just when you need them the most ? Then get this flashlight. I finally got tired of spending $5 on several plastic flashlights that always would break. The final straw was when I was in the attic of our church building in Houston, Texas (read VERY HOT!). I was making my way back to the ladder when my latest Home Depot special (only days old) died on me. I had to feel my way back. Well that did it ! I bought myself a MAGLITE and have not been disappointed. I have dropped it repeatedly and it keeps working. It fell off the hood of my car one night and the light stayed on. It does have some cosmetic damage from my abuse but IT KEEPS WORKING. Some neat features include the adjustable beam size (from wide to narrow), that tough case and the included spare bulb. When I consider how much I spent over the years on "cheap" flashlights I realize I should have bought a MAG a long time ago. All in all I highly recommend it.
The Standard For Flashlights
What can you say about a MagLite, they're almost indestructable, very reliable and come with a spare lamp in the back. You are far more likely to have yours stolen or lost than to break it. Heck, you could probably even open coconuts with it!
Let There Be Light!
Need to light up a space with a powerful flashlight? This is the way to go. It's a bit lighter than the 4 D cell version which is great for anyone who might want or need to hand-hold this for more than a minute or two. For my money this 2 cell light throws just as powerful a beam as its bigger sibling. It focuses to a concentrated spot and with the twist of your wrist spreads a broad beam to light a path in the darkest places. I've stood it on end, bounced the light off the ceiling and illuminated a small room with mine. Not enough to live with but certainly look for something small on the floor!
The rubber gaskets keep water out if you need to use it in the rain or in any place it might get a good dousing. The rubberized power switch is easy to find in the dark and easy to click on. An extra lamp comes in the base cap. Nice touch.
