Tools and Hardware Reviews of MAGLITE S2D036 Heavy-Duty 2-D Cell Flashlight, RedCustomer Review: Finally, a MagLITE LED flashlight! Summary: 4 Stars
I have to say I was beginning to think it was going to take MagLITE forever to bring out a LED flashlight. Surefire and Eletrolumens have been out for years with quite reasonable (and bright) LED based flashlights, and to be honest, some of their offerings are probably still better than the MagLITE (a bit brighter, perhaps a bit better on the LED technology). But they are also much more expensive. MagLITE, for better or worse, has always been the gold standard. First, you can buy one just about anywhere, parts are readily available, and they are well engineered and made. The switch is easy to use and reliable, and the ability to focus the beam is very good. It doesn't weigh a lot for a non-plastic flashlight. Pretty easy to grip, without ripping up your hand. But MagLITE took forever to come out with an LED version. If you're being honest, there's two crucial aspects, reasons why you need LED in a flashlight:
(1) They don't break. If you stumble and drop it, or bump it (which is going to happen, you're using a flashlight in usually confined or not lit conditions, so it's going to get knocked around), no problem. No need to replace the bulb (even if you had one).
(2) They last longer. You cannot always plan how long you are going to need to use the flashlight. LEDs give you 3-10X the battery life.
Granted, you lose a few lumens, but LED is definitely the way to go. The MagLITE is ideal for around the home or in the car, well worth the extra money over the plastic variants, and well under the price of the fancier Surefire and Elecktrolumens competitors.
