5.0 out of 5 stars Most Powerful Flashlight Ever, September 3, 2007

By	jerry i h (Berkeley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: MAGLITE S6D036 Heavy-Duty 6-D Cell Flashlight, Red (Tools & Hardware)

This behemoth weighs in at 3 lb. and is 20 inches long. I added the optional xenon upgrade bulb 6 Cell Mag-Num Star Xenon C or D Replacement Lamps 1/Pk.. It was so darn bright, I could not fairly compare it to anything else I had. I finally took out the rechargeable, 55 watt, halogen spotlight Coleman PML8000Y Rechargeable Handheld Spotlight.

The Coleman uses an automobile headlight bulb, and this Maglite produced light that was almost as bright; boy, was I surprised. Yes, it is big and inconvenient, but so is the portable car headlight. The spotlight gives you 15 minutes of strong light for 20 hours of charging, but the Maglite gives a few hours on one set of batteries. It is also focusable, so you can get either strong area light or tight beam to throw light hundreds of feet away. Also, note the rather reasonable $$$ compared to other, similar, but more expensive lights.

If you want a super-powerful flashlight and can deal with the size and weight, this flashlight is the ultimate, most powerful flashlight I have ever used. The only things more powerful would be rechargeable halogen spots and HID's.

Great flashlight. A little large, but bright and very durable. Only disadvantage is that it cannot be upgraded to an LED; Mag only makes LEDs for up to 4D.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Flashlight, February 22, 2002

By	SuperDougio (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: MAGLITE S6D036 Heavy-Duty 6-D Cell Flashlight, Red (Tools & Hardware)

Don't look for any fancy camping and hiking features here. This is Maglite - the most robust, simply designed, durable flashlight ever. All except the tiniest maglites share a number of common features: super-bright bulbs, waterproof seals, a twistable head which adjusts the spread of the beam from spot to flood, and a spare bulb in a padded compartment in the base. This is the big daddy of the bunch, taking a full 6 D-cells, and satisfying long and heavy. You'll feel like a nightwatchman! Also available in 4D and 5D sizes for those with smaller biceps.
