- Great light - lousy light bulbs
- I have owned one of these lights for years. The original light bulbs lasted at least five years but replacements (genuine brand) only last a few months. ... Otherwise a great product - would be five stars if the bulbs lasted longer.

- Tough as nails, great value
- This is one tough little flashlight! I once dropped a Mini Mag forty feet onto a rock-while lit-and it survived with only a tiny dent. There are cheaper flashlights out there but this is the one to buy. Solid, well thought out design and great value make this a winner!

- Great light with little known feature
- All the mag lites share solid aluminum construction and rubber o-ring seals.
What sets the mini mag off from the other mag lites is its size (easy to hold with teeth while working under car, sink, etc) and one little known feature - "candle" mode. You adjust the beam focus by rotating the mini mag's head, but if you continue turning the head pops off; you are left with the handle and the exposed bulb, which is now throwing light in all directions - it is a "candle". Flip the head over, place it on the ground/table - it is now a "candle holder". Stick the candle into the candle holder. Instant candle for camping. (These directions are actually on the mini mag's packaging, but it wasn't until I had bought my third mini mag (one for car, kitchen, daypack) that I noticed. This is actually a great trick to show other mini mag owners... they also threw their packaging away without looking it)
Two mini mags in the candle mode do a good job on a picnic table at night... so get two of them... they're cheap.

- Mag decided to become the best and they did. Best value.
- While I have run into a flashlight that is slightly more waterproof than this one it is almost three times more expensive. In my humble opinion value is a major component of any design. For this reason, this flashlight rates a 5. Grasp this in your hand and you are immediately struck by its designed in strength and careful manufacturing. The adjustable beam, which spreads or focuses the light expands the usefulness. Narrow for reading a map late at night or wide angle for walking down the lane. A spare bulb (an old concept that seemed to have gotten lost until now) increases the likelihood that you will have light when you want it. Mag took a simple product, added important features and then used quality materials and methods to produce it at a very attractive price.

- Mag review
- This is a quality product,I have been in possesion of a maglite for only a couple of weeks but within that time it has displayed great durability being run over twice by a tractor and being regularly dropped. It also comes in handy for lighting things up apparently.
