Maglite S2d116 2d Cell Flashlight Blister Pack Blue

Purchased as primarily a home protection device and secondly a torch. So it would make sense to me to split the review in two. Firstly the torch: takes 6 D-cell batteries which makes it quite weighty. Not for the weak armed. The light is pretty good though, with adjustable focused beam of spread over more of an area. Does the job for poking around in the attic where the baddies might be. Part two: home protection device. This thing as mentioned about really goes weight a good whack, must be a good couple of kilos. I keep it next to my bed in the hopes should an intruder make his way into my fort, with the help of this torch I should be able to defend myself should the need for combat arise. Plus, the light is fairly bright so before they get near you a good whack of brightness could disorient the hazard, shortly followed by a stern thrashing with the baton. All in all, I feel safe in my bed with this next to me, and if I really do need to go in the loft I won't be as afraid. Would buy again. Might buy again to dual wield. Not sure yet.

This is probably the best torch I have ever owned. Having previously owned several other models of the Maglite I decided it was time to purchase the big daddy 6D. I use this torch for camping and walking mainly but also serves general purpose jobs around the house and garden. It is very bright and the adjustable beam is great as the torch can spread light or focus a beam. It's a strong and rugged torch so don't be afraid to use it and knock it around a little as it's built to last. The 6D batteries can be expensive but I have found that using a more expensive Duracell Ultra lasts quite a while in my experience. The bulbs for this torch are replaceable and a spare usually comes in the removable end on the rear of the torch however I have never needed to change the bulb in any of my Maglites. Owned for : 16 months + Used for : Camping/hiking/household jobs Battery life : Over 5 months (dependant on usage) My torch is used and often gets dropped or banged against things, nothing has ever broken on this torch is built to last.

Bought this to replace my last Maglite purchased over 20 years ago that finally succumbed to corroded batteries. The incandescent bulb supplied in this torch is not great but the build of the torch is absolutely superb. I have given five stars because you can buy this torch and replace the bulb with a 300 lumen LED replacement from The Torch Site (or other sites) for an extra £12 which gives you a torch brighter than the Maglite LED torches which can retail at up to £90. Go for an LED upgrade and this is a briiliant, robust torch. And it's also quite heavy so can be used as self-defence tool if needed. This torch can be dropped, thrown driven over and it still works. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

the 6d Maglite is the type of item that may be considered to be a little out of date compared to cree lcd ect however this is not so much a bright light only as much a protection a rifle compared to a pistol not that bright but it makes up for that in durability and practicality and you wont loose it however this is my second as first was stolen

Bought to keep by my bed just in case. Fitted it with a cree LED bulb: TTS Maglite Cree LED Bulb Upgrade Conversion for 3d 4d 5d or 6d or C Cell Torch. Uses brightest 3 watt LED That increases the brightness to the point where I'm fairly sure you could blind an intruder before beating them senseless with the other end. Filled with 6 of these: Extreme Rechargeable D Cells 10000 mAh 2 pack (which I believe offer good value for the capacity and ability to recharge) it's heavy enough that you'd feel reassured if the need arrived. The head can be twisted to focus the beam into a tight spot or floodlight, the button is well protected with rubber and easy to click on and off. Head unscrews completely to allow the bulb or lense to be changed easily. Comes with a spare bulb stuck to the inside of the battery cap under some protective foam.

Both the beam and the spread of light is VERY disappointing.. The build quality is nice but not worth the very long delivery time or the money... Will be the LAST Maglight I buy.....

Well built however beam has dull centre. Adjusting beam just makes a ‘donut’ shaped beam. Poor at the price

What can I say about the Mag 6 D that is bad,well its a heavy torch when loaded up with batteries,its long so if you need hands free you need a Belt Clip to carry it,shop around for these as you can pick up good bargains in surplus kit and they are better than some of the more junkie types,but apart from that no faults that I can pick out,if you don`t want a heavy torch to lug around get something lighter,this is the bad boy`s torch. Good points about this torch, I also bought the upgrade bulb for it and boy oh boy it is WELL Bright,just do not shine it in someones eye`s as you may do some damage and I am not joking its that bright,the upgrade was about £13 so its well worth the price and it does not effect the ability to adjust the beam from wide to fine beam.I have this Maglite in a second hand leather belt clip so when I am out training with my Police Dog I have hands free at all times and when I press the button the beam of light is amazing even the dog was surprised. All in all this torch is brilliant and I cannot sing its praises enough,yes its heavy but what do you expect with 6 D cell batteries in it,it lights up the night with a bright and clear white light that cuts through the murk when needed and can cover a large area when fine beam is not needed,would I recommend this torch to you,Hell Yes. If you want the Bulb upgrade and the Belt Holder,the Holder is from kit-ka-boodle and bulb upgrade from thetorchsite,both on E-Bay,Enjoy.

Somente a qualidade do led/lampada não é de boa qualidade, mas trocando ficou muito boa

Inte så ljusstark som jag förväntade mig. Har en vanlig glödlampa i sig och inte LED. Har sen tidigare den mindre ML300L LED och den har mycket starkt ljus. Så köpte en 525 lumen ersättningslampa och bytte ursprungslampan. Mycket starkare ljus nästan lika starkt som ML300L. Inte uppenbart hur man byter hela lampan mot en LEF men man får pilla ner metallen runt glödlampan. Funkar utmärkt med amazons uppladdningsbara batterier.

Estoy muy contento con la linterna. Da una luz cálida que viene genial para la fotografía nocturna en las ocasiones en que se desee. La linterna es grande y robusta, pudiendo servir como arma de defensa. La adquirí por 16€, así que la relación calidad /precio es brutal

Dear, We receipt 2 items, one item is broken so please send me another one.
