But in the end, and after 4 different flashlights I am once again landed in the old, good MiniMag. This is the really bad version of MiniMag Pro +. And this purchase I regret not the first time. Because the processing of the flashlight is completely high and still makes the impression as my old loves, they can be even 15 years old. Compared to a classic MagLite LED version has been built around a centimeter longer.
The most important thing - the light. Here you can tell the difference. While the old Mag produced only a yellow point of light this lamp creates a very bright whitewashed spot with decent size. The light output is ideal for my taste. The light floods a dunkelen room so good without being too strong. But who would have thought that it produces no light - is is none of my other flashlights afterwards. In the area of the reflector and a lot has been done. While my old MiniMag had always produces a poorly lit point has this flashlight on a continuous uniformly illuminated spot. What's interesting to me (basically) the life of the LED. If you imagine how much light as a small chip emits kannich not imagine a life of 15,000 hours. But this idea is true for any flashlight in high-end range and not alone in this Mag-Lite.
An important purchase factor is the design of the torch. I find a longer, thinner design than personally enjoyable as a Fenix PB21 or a Light-Express 103. Den. If, like me, almost always carries a torch in the male in winter is a thick bulbous design almost always interfere on.
But the main advantage: the batteries! Any other good flashlight requires either CR123 batteries or optionally a 18650 battery. So one can with their local dealer for two hours of light joy almost 10 euros to pay for two batteries (I know that but they are cheaper in the Internet as often does that happen just then the battery is empty when it should not be). In addition, it is also said that one should not use batteries in flashlights usually because here the difference between the 1.2 volt battery and the 1.5 Volt battery is not to be conducive to a flashlight. And what swallows the MiniMag? Classic AA Mignon batteries, you can get everywhere and at every turn.
My Conclusion:
Currently the best flashlight with the best price-performance ratio. Light Without End, an ideal design and the use of simple batteries makes them for me State-of-way.
