Maglite brings LEDs into focus. The Maglite three D-battery LED flashlight, well known for its quality, durability, and reliability is now available with New MAG-LED Technology. Designed for professional and consumer use, benefits include: A powerful projecting beam that focuses simply by rotating the head. Balanced optics, combining a highly refined reflector with a quality LED, for a brilliant adjustable beam. Intelligent Energy Source Management (patent pending) balancing high brightness with efficient power usage. Water and Shock resistant. Limited lifetime warranty.

1. Brighter LED: The new Maglite uses a Luxeon 'Rebel ES' 3-Watt LED as light source (check my Customer Image to see how it looks like). This LED is significantly brighter, whiter and more energy-efficient than the previous 'Lux III' LED used in 1st-gen Maglite.

2. Improved Heat Sink: The overheating problem found in 1st-gen LED modules has been solved. That is, the light no longer dims down after just a few minutes of operation.

3. Better Power Management: The new Maglite maintains constant power consumption of 2W as long as battery voltage is above 3.5V. That means it produces the same brightness whether powered by 3x NiMH cells (3.75V), or 3x alkaline cells (4.5V). When battery voltage drops below 3.5V, the light dims down gradually to conserve power, instead of abruptly drops dead like in 1st-gen.

4. Sharper Focusing: The 'Spot' mode is now very tight, with hardly any spill over. The 'Wide' mode is more even, without an ugly black hole in the middle. Check out the additional engineer image for beam shots click here
