(Your thinking of Kel-Lite) The serial number is 'D' and on the bezel it says 'MAG-LITE MAG INSTRUMENTS-ONTARIO, CALIFORNIA, USA' My LED comparison thread with links. Tint, Binning, and CRI Explanation (For the XM-L). On all Benwil Grand Prix Series Lifts it is important that the serial number be given at the time of order. In mid 1988 these lifts began being made in the United States. Prior to this they were made in Japan. The lift design did not change but some of the parts are different. A 'B' in the serial number indicates a U.S. Convert boolean to observable, The return type is Observable, it’s going to return an observable where each item in the observable is SearchItem , each item in the observable is going to be an array of SearchItems. That’s our intention at least but we need to adjust our search function to make it a reality, a first step would look like so. MAGLITE D (RX-13856) is a high purity, lightly calcined, high surface area, very active magnesium oxide. It’s primary use to neutralize acids formed during the processing of elastomer compounds. This high quality magnesium oxide is produced through a precision controlled seawater extraction process, which produces consistent unique crystal.

Maglite (also spelled Mag-Lite, stylized as MAG-LITE) is a brand of flashlight manufactured in the United States by Mag Instrument, Inc. located in Ontario, California, and founded by Anthony Maglica. It was introduced in 1979.^[1][2] Constructed principally of anodized6061 aluminum, they have a variable-focus beam. Maglites are produced in several colors such as black, silver, blue, red, green, purple, gold, and different finishes. Originally Maglite flashlights used krypton or xenon incandescent bulbs. Current models have LEDs, although the older models are still widely available.

Accessories include belt holsters, mounting brackets, colored and glass lenses, attachable fiber optics extensions, higher-powered incandescent bulbs, and LED conversion modules. The Maglite was an improvement over the Kel-Lite, after which the Maglite was patterned.^[3]

Timeline[edit]

A list of the sizes of Mag Instrument flashlights, and the years they were released:

• 2012: Maglite Mag-Tac crowned bezel, 320 lumens. This model has no low mode for light output.
• 2012: the V4 was also released with a newly developed electronic switch enabling a Multi Mode operation and a slightly more powerful bulb producing an output of 245 Lumens.
• 2012: In August, Maglite announced several new models including an LED version of the Solitaire, a Mini Maglite LED 2 AAA and a new version of the 2D LED termed the 2D LED Pro promising a beam in excess of 200 Lumens.
• 2013: Maglite released an LED version of the MagCharger. Features a 680 lumen output and spot-to-flood beam with a quarter turn of the head. Claimed 4 hrs of battery life on a full charge at full power. Other specs are as the Incandescent Version.^[4]

Models[edit]

Law enforcement use[edit]

Maglite flashlights have been known to be used as a ready substitute for a baton. In 2004, the Los Angeles Police Commission moved to use smaller flashlights, with Alan Skobin, the commission vice-president, stating that 'This policy makes clear flashlights are for illumination and discourages their use as an impact tool. And it ensures officer safety as well as protects the public.'^{[5][citation needed]} Security and police personnel often carry Maglite flashlights in red as they can be employed as a defensive weapon, especially at night or in dark locations. Police officers will often use Maglites during traffic stops or suspect confrontation, as the beam can disorient an attacker and the flashlight can be swung as a baton as a measure of last resort in self-defense.^[6]

On March 30, 2007, the Los Angeles Police Department announced that they would be switching to a smaller, lighter LED flashlight that cannot be used as a baton, in response to a highly publicized incident where an officer was accused of using excessive force against a suspect by using a Maglite.^[7]

As we have already seen with the Mini Maglite Pro and Pro+, classic simplicity and modern power define the Maglite Pro series. In this review, we’ll be taking a look at the full-sized member of this family, the single-output Maglite Pro 2D LED. Using two D-cell alkaline batteries, which is the only battery configuration offered, the Pro 2D LED has a maximum output of 274 lumens and intensity of over 33,000 candela.

Pricing & Contents

Maglite Serial Number Decoder Lookup

MSRP for the Maglite Pro 2D LED is $39.99, and the light is only available in black.

Included in the blister packaging are: Maglite Pro 2D LED Flashlight and user manual.

Batteries

The Maglite Pro LED is only offered with a single battery configuration, which is the compact 2D-cell version. With electronic circuitry and LEDs making large D-cell lights obsolete, this product line simplification doesn’t really surprise us (the only difference between the Maglite LED 2D-cell and 3D-cell lights is runtime).

The Light

The Pro 2D is a variant of the D-cell Maglite, and standard D-cell Maglite accessories such as traffic wands and mounting brackets will work with the Pro 2D. As with most Maglites, the aluminum body is type-II anodized.

Head
The head features a plastic window and a smooth reflector. Optimal focus can be achieved by twisting the head.

Body
Knurling on a section of the body provides grip for the light.

Tail Cap
The flat tail cap allows the Pro 2D to tail stand.

Performance

Using a Cree XP-G LED, the Maglite Pro 2D LED is rated for 274 lumens. The Pro 2D has a larger hotspot than the standard D-cell lights, which makes the increased output of the Pro 2D less obvious. Beam pattern of the Pro 2D is artifact-free at optimal focus, but holes and rings quickly appear if the light is defocused.

When activating the Pro 2D, the light does not turn on immediately and has a quick, but noticeable, “fade-in” effect like the XL100.

Runtime

If you haven’t read our article about runtime graphs and the ANSI FL1 Standard, please click here.

Maglite uses step-down regulation, which reduces the Pro 2D’s output to 60% during the first 12 minutes of continuous operation. When used with two NiMH AA batteries (in D-cell adapters), runtime is reduced but performance is roughly the same for the first 2h 30min.

Conclusion

While the Maglite Pro 2D LED combines modern performance with the classic D-cell flashlight, this might actually be a drawback – we can’t think of any other modern device that uses D-cell batteries. The availability of rechargeable NiMH and energy-dense lithium-ion batteries, combined with the obsolescence of other D-cell electronics (such as large radios and cassette players), has largely decreased D-cell usage. Even obtaining alkaline D-cells for use in our runtime test, given our budget (or rather the lack thereof), proved to be challenging since the packaging doesn’t include batteries.

Of course, using D-cells isn’t specifically a problem with the Maglite Pro 2D, but it is definitely a factor to consider. There are many advantages of a larger-sized light, such as being easier to grip, but large lights don’t necessarily have to be heavy. For most of our testing with the Pro 2D, we used Sanyo Eneloop AA’s in plastic battery adapters, and when used with adapters that take two AA’s in parallel, battery weight is halved and runtime is still more than sufficient. If you are considering a full-sized flashlight, we would definitely recommend purchasing a couple adapters to have the option of using AA’s.
