Maglite ML50LX LED 3-Cell C Matte Black Flashlight

I have another Maglite 2D purchased 18 years ago, which I recently replaced the original bulb with a dimmable LED.I purchased this one with 2 C batteries because I really appreciate the Maglite quality, and because it is lighter and easier to handle than the 2D type. Also the LED with 3 different brightness levels is fantastic.

Very well made, very bright adjustable light beam, sturdy, and heavy with batteries 🔋 inside. Potentially could be used for personal protection purposes 😏 Recommended.

This is the best flash light I have ever bought. I use it at work to check multiple rooms many times through the night. It fits nicely in a holder on my belt. Its not to heavy like the bigger mag lights and I can sit down comfortably with it on. I go through two C batteries every month and a half to two months. Compared to my last smaller fancy flashlight that was only good for a couple of weeks before it would need new batteries. Also some of my co workers have purchased flashlights well more than twice the cost of this one at specialty stores. When we compared our lights, mine with new batteries and theirs with a fresh charge. This light was just as bright if not brighter than theirs and I don’t have to constantly plug it in to a charger for it to be ready. For what I do this flashlight has a way longer working life between batterie changes for it’s size, compared to anything I’ve seen so far. Even when the batteries are getting low it still produces plenty of light to run against the other flashlights It’s been compared to. I personally rely on this flashlight every night I’m at work for safety/security reasons and that is why I do not hesitate to recommend this flashlight. If you need a good everyday dependable light, this light has been awesome for me. Thank you for taking the time to read my review, I hope it helps. FYI I use mode #4 one press is full power momentary, two clicks is full power on, and three clicks is strobe. It’s the mag light “tactical” mode. I use momentary by far the most.

Didn't want a massive flashlight for around the house, so got this one. It fits good in the hand and isn't too heavy. Gives off plenty of light.

This is a fantastic flashlight and the right size to fit either a center console or glove box. A selection of features are built in; however, you don't have to change from basic function if that's all you require. Programming options is easy to do if desired and instructions are clear/easy to follow.

Typical Maglite, solid, feels reliable, well-made, simple to use. Double clicking gives you a "low" level brightness. As I write this review, the run-time on high is listed as 15 hrs. It should be understood that ANSI FL-1 specs allow the stated run-time to be when the light output drops to 10% of initial brightness. As you can see from the two attached runtime graphs, this Maglite will down-regulate the "high" output SIGNIFICANTLY during it's runtime. On high, the output will drop down to about 27.5% of initial output within the 1st hour, then stabilize at approx 135 lumens for about 12 hours. The "low" level (113 lumens) will give you a consistent output for about 17 hours.

I have had an maglight for over thirty years now. This is my first led maglite. I bought the Maglight that takes three c's batteries. solid construction. And last but not least built in California. L e d light is very bright. Would highly recommend maglight.

I like how it works it’s very good
