I love mag-lite.. I have the two, three, and four d-cell lites. They are awsome~! But the size does get in the way sometimes. But as far as given off light- outstanding!

The 4 D-Cell is just a bit too big. It is cumbersome and difficult to run with when pursuing a subject. The LED functionality is great, but no better than the 3 D-Cell version.

Just like the 2/3 D cell

nice product.

Makes a better club than light.

they used to make a 6cell, now that was a flashlight (I mean club)

This is a great light I have one with an LED bulb that is super bright and helps to make the batteries last longer. It is a little heavier, but well worth it since it serves more than one purpose.

Ah, the trusty Maglight. Never thought they could improve on it, but the LEDs are brighter and batteries last much longer.

Have one at home and it has worked forever, never failed. Can't beat it.

Good light for an under endowed man to overcompensate. But overall reliable. also good if you are 10 foot tall.

Best damn flashlight ever. Large enough to intimidate but also great cause after you beat the crap out of someone with you can shine the light on them to check out the damage.

Solid design as all mag-lites are.

Good flashlight, nice illumination. Only problem I have had the balbs blow easily when dropped

I have used this flashlight for EVERYTHING ! It has served me well both here in the states and abroad. My father introduced me to this wonderful light. I couldn't see me using anything else.

Doubles as a baseball (or other) bat...

I thought I'd never trade in my old four cell. That mag light has been in my truck for nearly ten years. And now I discover that there is an LED version. So now my old light has passed down to my little brother and this light rides in my truck. tough and even longer lasting. What's not to like?

I was so happy to see them go from the standard bulb to the LED.

A great 'OLE RELIABLE..by far the best "head knocker" I've ever used. Easily manupilated over the seat of the patrol vehicle to "encourage" bad guy to "behave" during transport to the "pokey" When "back up" is along way away...the Keil-light can be your partner.

The light is cumbersome to carry, but has excellent illumination power and is tough.

Dependable light, but I prefer my lighter-weight Streamlight XL more nowadays.

Mine has never failed me, the light is consistantly bright and by rotating the head I can pin point small areas or a whole vehicle.

Also can be used as a weapon with little or no damage!

very good light especially with halogen bulbs

Actually found one of these on a rural road a few years ago. I haven't had to change batteries yet. Excellent piece of equipment. Felt bad that someone lost it (at least for a couplof minnutes :-)

good solid light

I've been carrying these around for over twenty years, and have one in each of my vehicles. THey are a good solid flashlight and I like the size and feel of them. As a former impact weapon instructor I see a tool that, though a bit on the short side, can be an effective weapon for close combat. They are durable and anyone hit with it is going to know it for a long time.

Have owned one for years. It is extremely tough and dependable. The only light for me.

I had worked were i need a good flash lite I was in security for a long time near a state prison
This was the only one of the many owned and it saved me from a attack from an escaped felon
It is very bright and last much longer than any other

The old standard...ops I forgot my baton....no matter I have my Mag-Lite...

I love this flashlight..bright enough to count i/ms sleeping in their cell and handy enough to whack them on the head when they get stupid 90% of the time !!!!

Two big and no brighter then the 2 or 3 cells. It is not very bright at all I have a streamlight with the three watt led which is what the mag has and it is much much brighter.

I dont currently carry one but when i was a corrections officer we used them on motor patrol and when we had to do security checks I liked the fact that not only did it provide great lighting but it also doubled as a pretty nice baton. Provides Light and Security! 2 Thumbs up.

I love my Maglite 4D, being on the small size it was one way of keeping the criminals at bay with having to draw my service revolver

Had mine for over 20 years and still working like day one. Been bounced around quite a bit in those years too.

Although my maglite was my secondary, I always had it with me.. I could always count on it when I needed a weapon of opportunity.. She never let me down and I never found a subject who did not, how should I put this, fall for her bright personality and charm....

As you know I am a Security Officer and I use the Maglite C cell version tough light snd it takes beatings

Good for a POV. Heavy and bulky to carry on foot patrol. Works good if your department won't let you carry a baton.

Good product. I have own one for years. Lasts a lifetime. A bit heavy for carrying all the time though.

Very sturdy light.....Back up light for years..

good equipment to have

GREAT LIGHT, ESPECIALLY W/ THE LED BULB.... DOUBLES AS A STRAIGHT BATON.... "when striking the GREEN area!'

I've carried one of these in my personal car for over 15 years and it has never failed me. It has been dropped, run over, used as a pry bar to lift a heavy truck tire onto the lugs for a friend, and a hundred other uses. More than just a flashlight, this is a great tool. And if need be, it can bust the head of anyone foolish enough to come looking for trouble.

Great light

It is the toughest flashlight I have ever used. It also serves as a godd back up weapon if need be.

really good product for it's price, has a number of uses

I'll be honest. I used to carry this 4 D Cell maglite, and I used to love it. Then i realized how heavy and uncomfortable it was making my duty belt. There are so many more options out there, and I highly suggest a compact and LIGHT flashlight for for duty use. Guys, if you want a baton, then buy a baton. The maglite is not your answer.

I have had this light for ever! It is a great "back up" tool if you know what I mean (and I know you do)! I don't carry it on my belt often due to weight but it is always with in reach in my cruiser if I feel I need it. And hey it is a great flashlight too!

The 4 D-Cell Flashlight came in handy in my last job. As an Unarmed Security Officer you are not allowed to carry weapons; i.e. guns, batons, mace. I found that when my female officers were working nights having to do rounds of the site they felt much safer with this flashlight for not only lighting purposes, but also for protecting themselves.

I've used this product for a long time and have found that it clearly can take the abuse of our job and with few exceptions, has NEVER failed.

good for light even better with led bulb

Other than being a little to big it`s a great flashlight, I`ve depended on it for years and it`s never let me down. (makes a great club to)

Sure, it's "just" a flashlight...

Bright light, great for long hikes, can also be used as a weapon (if needed)

I used to carry one for several years,even in the day time instead of a night stick.

never leave home without it.

Had one of these when I started policing over 20 years ago. Agency banned them shortly thereafter. Afraid too many officers would use it as an impact weapon. Great flashlight.

There's a light on it?!?!?!?!? where? I just use it as a beat stick!!!

Ive had a pair of these for years. They are very effective in lighting an area up or lighting up a perp

I've had one of these for years. Bought one for my oldest son when he was working security and was so impressed, I had to have one for myself.

I love mag-lite, it's way too big for me to carry for work but I keep one in the car for one those late nights when I happen to come up on a wreck - gives me lots of light to work with and perfect in case anyone gets a little too rowdy! quite durable with many uses and can withstand quite a beating! Love it!

This is a great light I have one with an LED bulb that is super bright and helps to make the batteries last longer. It is a little heavier, but well worth it since it serves more than one purpose.

Bought mine in 1992 and carried it on patrol for years. Needless to say it has seen its abuse; busting out windshields, windows, a leg, dogs, stop a door from being slammed on me etc. Most of the black paint has been worn off but it still works. No telling how many bulbs have been replaced. Replaced the cover to the button once.

nothing better as a backup baton

Always dependable, durable, and bright.

maglite are the best sort of torches you can get as they can be used as a torch or as a cosh

I love this light

Carried this in the begining of my career. Still do. Very dependable.

THE PLANT SUPERVISOR USES THIS TO SEE WHAT THE CAB IN THE BACK OF THE TRUCK LOOKS LIKE1!!!

Best flashlight you can get.

Very nice weapon(woops) meant light.After I had mine for about a month the Chief ruled we could no longer carry them.Most of us still did.

yes its a flashlight , yes its big, yes it will hurt if I smack some dirt bag with it.

Great light source, awesome improvised weapon/baton. I've had one of these things for the last ten years and it has never let me down. They get a bit more battery life than the three cells, however overall size and weight can be a downside for all day carry. That in itself is the only drawback I can find.
