i got one.

it is next to me as i write this.

its not bad. it is not special eider.

little hard to use. you got to hold it perfectly level to change levels .

even strobe can be change ,from slow to fast.

i think it should be cheaper.

i would buy it, just because i love Maglite's:D

How much does it cost?

[Guest strelcevina]

How much does it cost?

i think it was 40$.

didn't pay much attention to the price.

[Guest 1817ak47]

40 at home depot +9% of course

I was thinking of getting this to use on the side of my rifle via a holder onto the rail, but find a holder that I can quickly remove the light so that I can use it in my hand also

the dia is 1.00" according to maglite

No good at all.

What if you were walking your dog and needed to send out an SOS; but you didn’t know Morse code?

Would it be good for that?
