My wife gave me the red version of the mag flashlight for Christmas. I like the heft and the reliability. Because it uses multiple batteries, it won't fail for a long while. It's also sealed against moisture and contains an extra light bulb. All these factors make it ideal for the car. I've already used it to change a flat tire at night, and was I glad I had a dependable light, heavy enough to prop upright, that provided a lighted area wide enough to see what I was doing (adjustable arc). I recommend it.

The Mags are the best flashlights money can buy, and with the currently reduced price of this 2 D-cell unit, it's a bargain. The strongest points are its durability/ruggedness and the unusual feature of beam width adjustability. It is nice to own a flashlight that does not flicker or require tapping every time you turn it on(the result of cheap contacts most of the time). The recurrent weak point in Mags has been their tendency to burn out bulbs a bit too quickly. However, this too had been addressed by the manufacturer, who has thoughtfully placed an extra bulb inside the lens cap.

Any of the Mag Lite products are a good buy. Aircraft aluminum construction, high candlepower, and virtually indestructible, I use my Maglite everywhere. I keep one in each car, and one in the house just in case. I can think of a hundred reasons to have them, but the reason I buy them is that there are a hundred more I can't think of. Many useful accesories make these lights adaptable to almost any situation, even self defense.

Honest reviews on MAGLITE S2D106 Heavy-Duty 2-D Cell Flashlight

There is no flashlight I can think of, of any type or price that is better than this one. If you have no flashlights, buy it; if you have flashlights but not this one, buy it and be prepared to discard the flashlights you have.

It is tough and durable. It will serve faithfully no matter how badly you use or abuse it. It will outlive you, and you will be able to hand it down to your grandchildren. Professionals of all sorts have come to rely on this flashlight.

The efficiency of the reflector is also legendary. I compared this flashlight with the stock krypton bulb to a Rayovac Industrial flashlight with a halogen bulb. The Maglite won hands down. To check, we took the bulb out of the Rayovac and put it into the Maglite. Same result: the Maglite simply put out more light even with the same bulb.

I also like the silver color. The black color seems to be popular, but I prefer one that is brightly colored or easy to spot in emergency, safety, rescue, outdoor, or survival conditions. So there. If you want a flashlight, please buy this one. You will not regret it.

POSTSCRIPT

Maglite now has an LED version New Maglite brand 3 Watt Luxeon LED Flashlight 2 D Cell Gray Housing. The LED will not blow if you drop in on the ground (the regular incandescent version above will last forever, but you will have to replace the bulb once in a while; LED will never have to be replaced). It may be more $$$, but the light is also brighter.
