MAGLITE S3D106 Heavy-Duty 3-D Cell Flashlight, Silver

Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Unless you've been hiding for the past few decades, you're sure to recognize this classic from Mag Instrument. The solid dependability of Mag flashlights is hard to top, which explains why the brand is so popular with police officers, security guards, and other people who can't afford to be left in the dark. This three-D-cell model is great for home use and an essential part of any home emergency kit. It shines as bright as anyone could ask for, and a simple twist of the head changes the beam from a spot to a luminous floodlight. Having a Mag flashlight on hand can keep an inconvenience, like a November blackout, from becoming a small disaster. It is also a great light for illuminating the woods and keeping the bears at bay on summer camping trips. The weighty feel of a Mag flashlight also offers a sense of security in the dark that other flashlights just don't have, enough to give you the confidence to confront any basement bogeyman or mountain monster. --Brian Trinen

5.0 out of 5 stars It's A Shining Star, June 10, 2000

First of all, a black Mag-Lite is awesome. But a silver one is out of this world. It's bright aluminum casing enables it to be found more easily in dark situations because it seems to have a "glowing" silver presence to it. Trust me, I've found mine in the woods late at night after putting it down somwhere. Plus it looks very futuristic, and sure can light up a room for an extremely cheap and reasonable price. Go buy two of them.

who lives as far out in the rural countryside as I do gets accustomed to power interruptions, whether they are due to downed power lines from ice storms, someone hitting a key telephone pole and knocking out a transformer, or is the result of one of the occassional electrical storms we have during the warmer months of the year. In any and all of these circumstances I can always depend on my collection of mag-lights to see me through the darkness of the house in order to light my well-used candles and oil lamps until the power is finally restored. I also have one in each of my two trucks, and when I recently narrowly missed hitting a startled deer late at night and went off the road into a muddy field, the trusty mag light was invaluable in helping me find a winching point to pull myself out of the muddy gully. So, whether it is a venture down into the blackened hole my basement becomes late at night, or finding my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I can always depend on my mag lights to candle-power my way wherever I am going. I have several of the three battery-sized ones like the one displayed here, but actually also have three or four of the largest ones as well. I love mine, and although I seem to misplace at least one or two a year, I always have an ample supply of both mag-lights and replacement batteries because I find they are absolutely essential out here in the woods. Get one today.

After working with some of the so-called "tactical" flashlights out there, I've come back to the Mag Light. You just can't beat the classic heavy duty construction and standard batteries. Mag Instrument still provides the best customer support if you ever need any spare parts. Just give them a call and they will send you almost anything you ever need for repairs.
