First of all I would like to say that I use the flashlight when I go out with the dog in the evening. Since me performs the usual route directly through the forest, it is there often very dark ... I have tried many cheap flashlights, but not worked properly. So I decided to buy a Mag-Lite, and lo and behold, it is the perfect flashlight for me. The great thing about this flashlight is their enormous luminosity. In normal mode it has a long, thin beam, which determines 30-40m ranges in the darkness and the floodlight mode illuminates everything that is in front of a (up to 10m), but also has a dot in the middle, which is not quite as strong is illuminated. Nevertheless, this is the best flashlight that I've ever had.
