MagLite - ST3D016 Maglite LED 3-Cell D Flashlight, Black

I have had severe issues with MagLite. The last few Ive bought have gone bad. Ive marked it all up to poor treatment. I keep them in my Jeep where weather of all sorts could harm them. I understood they were supposed to be tough and guaranteed but they havent been. The primary issue being corrosion from batteries, to the point that the end cannot be unscrewed and the battery compartment opened. Im attempting another go at it with this one. This was appealing because it is a 3-cell. Its a good size, comfortable heft, like the one Im replacing. But its also an LED. One problem Ive never had is the light from these. This one is no exception and puts the bulbs of my old ones to shame. Great light. To sweeten the deal, I got this LED flashlight for less than an incandescent model- they usually retail for much more.

Ordered a 2 cell a couple of weeks ago. WoW ! I liked it so much that I ordered this 3 cell soon after. Dont fool around with the LED up-grade bulb units, I tried them too. They dont even come close to these, and they are Not cheap. I will Never buy a Non-LED Flashlight again.

Very good flashlight...this is the 2nd one I have bought.

Does the job. If youre looking for a flashlight that can also be used as a blunt object then Maglites are for you. If not find a normal sized flashlight at a non-inflated price.

This is my second maglite with the LED package. I have converted 3 other flashlights to the LED lamp and loved it! So I tried this version to see how I liked and this light projects is a very sharp and crisp white light vs. other manufacturers that have a yellow tinge to their lamps. My first LED maglite had an issue with the bulb itself. It would flicker at times with short run times and new batteries. No worries amazon exchanged it and back to Ontario. Problem solved. Either way Ive had just about every option of light maglite makes from 6D cell down to 2D and but this is my first LED light from maglite that I didnt convert and its my favorite. It seems brighter than the first light I exchanged at 134 lumens to now 168 lumens. The bulb seems better made and focuses a round light that is not washed out like the first light I purchased. I went with silver because everything scratches sliver and Ive had black, blue, red, deep blue, purple for my wife and everything scratches silver. I know if I ever have another issue that amazon they will be there to help out because of the awesome maglite warranty. Get it and treat it like you hate it. It always works and if you drop it, the bulb wont burn out like the older non-LED lamps would. JB

Mag lights are great, perfect size

I liked the brightness not the price.

The one I received is gray with a purplish hue. It has nothing to do with functionality but it was unexpected.

I will buy this flashlight again is I ever need one, the seller ships fast and you receive it within the time specified. This flashlight with the new LED technology puts out a large light that covers a lot of ground and lights up the room.

MAGLITES ARE GREAT FLASHLIGHTS
