I can say that my maglite ain’t the brightest but it definitely throws that hotspot far with the upgraded led bulb.

Yeah, the led upgrades, over the years, have probably kept many Maglites out of the scrap heap.

@@RollingTardis Don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against newer flashlights. Hella bright and really fun to play with. But nothing beats that simple reliable click of a maglite. With my 500 lumen upgrade my maglite still lasts quite a long time before needing to change batteries. Swear to god it was the farthest throwing light when I went to camp recently.

@@moistexistence3090 Maglite was and still is a very well made flashlight. But todays throwers would put the Maglite to shame. Even the China Pride Zoomies, have beaten the Maglites. But for reliability and price point Maglite is best in class.

@@RollingTardis I think nowadays maglite needs to up their game. Definitely keep producing the classics but come on. Give us some modern flashlights made in the US.

Hi, is it worth buying any modern Maglite for Universal uses like for hunt, home? I’m struggling to pick one.

I would say yes, for general purposes. It is not necessary to have extreme light. But still cool to have a light that lights up the night.

does the 3500 lumens kill the standard batteries or do you have to get rechargeable batteries capable of handling the power

This flashlight uses 2 26650 lithium cells. 5 amp hour cells last about 5 hours on high power.

3500, lumens for any is ridiculous, in my opinion, just because a light is brighter, don't mean you can a father distance. What matters is the amount of candelas.

Fine and dandy. However, casting light in a particular direction to get a candle power number, is all going to depend on MFG, how they make the reflector, led placement and many other factors. Since very few MFG's are going to spend money on this research, since it will vary so greatly. It is easier to sell products, with a simpler layman's term. Like selling Vacuums. This has so many watts of power. Next decade they sell them with so many Amps.

Very true, nature of all these torches. They all start strong, and taper as time goes on. I have document this, on my DIY Lux Tube.

This young man thinks with his heart, admirable but foolish. Use your brain, logic reasoning skills. Wait for evidence don’t blindly accuse which is what he’s doing with no verification on any of his points.
