MAGLITE 4 D Cell Blister Pack Flashlight-Black, Aluminium, [Energy Class A]

Top torch at a good price, American made quality.

Wow! What a torch. After having one of these I could never go to back to another torch. Apart from being really bright, and the range is amazing, I feel totally safe as a lone women going out at night. I bought the the one that takes 4D cells, although this makes this a very heavy torch, it also makes it a very useful truncheon if (God forbid) it was required. My daughter is buying me a battery charger and 4D cell rechargable batteries, which will certainly help to keep the battery cost down. If you want a tough, good quality torch thats value for money and has a spare bulb in the cap and a 10 year warranty, then you can't go wrong in my opinion!

Does what it says on the tin.

It's not my first, and in my opinion definitely the best of quality. Nothing fancy, no frills- and simplicity means more reliability. It can take almost any punishment. More than just a flashlight- it can be used as survival tool and for self defense. In terms or ergonomics, it's somewhat heavy (the batteries). But it's worth its weight. And definitely its price.

bought this cause i love good classic flashlights like maglites my grandad died of cancer few yers back he left me a maglite it is old and has a good few war scars instead of making it worse i decided to buy this keep in mind this aint ye normal LED flashlight its pretty heavy for a flashlight i like to put it on my Shoulder when using it great beam for close range and long range since u can adjust it worth the price great for a backup flashlight these things are like tanks to normal flashlights thats why i like them u bet yo ass if u got a maglite u be lighting up places these things are waterproof fire proof great that u get a spare bulb with it i carry mine on my belt with a viper maglite holder when ur lightweight led flashlight fails this is the bad boy u want to cover ye ass love the beam maglites never let u down even with all this high tec led flashlights etc i would rather have my good olld maglite to save the day works good as new after all the years of abuse aswell like i said like a tank a must have for me thanks

Make no mistake this is a big, heavy torch, largely thanks to the 4 x D cell batteries which power it. As a consequence you get a strong beam with the power in a new set of alkaline batteries to last many hours. Mine is for occasional use so I haven't tested a set to the point of disposal but if you were using this torch heavily I guess you would do well to consider rechargeable battery alternatives.Maglites only claim to be "weather resistant" - in practice they are rather better than that, hence the 10-year warranty.

Great torch, works really well, reassuringly heavy and so far no problems with durability, great for walking the dog and camping. Great power so no problems with the distance the light travels and when focused to a spot really illuminates the target area. Very happy with the torch. Now considering a smaller one to carry when out running to complement my head torch.

Not as bright as you'd expect given the size.. Or weight! But that's only half the reason I bought this item for and I do feel safer with this in hand! There are the newer LED versions that do excel in that area but only up to 3x D cell and not the 4x D cell that this one is. I am considering getting an LED conversion kit.
