- The Mini MagLite LED SP2201HL is the standard powered 2-Cell AA version. I went with this one versus the Pro version because I noticed much longer run times with this conservative model. Is it worth saving the extra bucks? Yes it is :)

Features I like about this flashlight:
Smooth Design with Classic Lines.
127 Lumens for Eleven Hours.
Candle Mode.
32 Lumen Low for Twenty Five Hours.
Flasher and SOS modes.
Power Saving Feature. Light will switch modes when voltage drops.
Inexpensive.
Made in USA.
Ten Year Warranty.
Belt Holster.
Zoom Head Design.
Simple to Operate.
Beam is Narrow, great for distance.
Features that could be added or improved on:
A regulated circuit so NiMH will properly power the flashlight's High Mode consistently.
A higher IPX rating.
Overall, there are many flashlights on the market that compete and in many cases exceed the performance of this model. The silver lining is that it is Made in USA, carries a Ten Year warranty, and is affordably priced.
Thank you for watching!

Hi from Scotland, Todderbert. One of these excellent Flashlights was given to me around 25 years ago. It still looks and operates like it was new. Its a good example of the high quality products that your country and mine used to manufacture and export. Today, both of our countries are great at exporting jobs....
Those are manufactured nearby (by Southern CA standards....25 miles or so) and are beautifully crafted devices, backed by amazing customer service.
我不太相信这个东西是在美国生产的。实际上，在中国，类似的手电筒至少有几百种！数不清的长度，颜色，电池种类，粗细，变焦，，，在中国甚至有很多手电筒爱好者，我无法理解其中的乐趣。回到这个视频中的手电筒，更大的可能是中国制造，美国组装（或者包装）。
@@user-yo1bb8mj3q 如果它真的是美国制造的，那么组件可能仍然是完全中国的
Love mine, and in late 2023, they have even a better emitter !
My dads 4 dcell maglite still works and feels like new and it is a little over 30 years old and been using it in every power outage and maglites are still made with just mechanical parts that won't quit that will always outlast the electronic parts in other flashlights of today
I always was partial to the old school maglites. My units all have O rings so they are very water resistant. I purchased glass lenses for them. I also put clear packing tape on the lenses to eliminate scratches.
I'll buy one. Good review.
Thanks man!
i bought my AA incandescent in 1999 & still working solid. Im planning to get upgrade kit to led as the incandescent bulb hard to find and one only a spare bulb left in tailcap.
They on amazon and ebay and more other websites and I just got some abut they are not in stores anymore
I like this video because the product (Flashlight) is “Made in USA”!
Regards!
Hej Todderbert thanks for the video very interesting flashlight I must say like the brand had an old big maglite flashlight in the 90's. But there have been very good smaller flashlights lately, flashlights that shine very well. And I am looking for a good one like this one small and does not take up much space. It is very interesting when you test flashlights of various kinds and brands take care and have a nice weekend.
You might try Hixon AA 1.5 vdc Li-Ion rechargables. They won't work in radios (wipes out MW/SW). They claim that they will run at 1.5 volts for nearly all of the charge. I haven't tried them in my Mini Mag LED AA yet, but will soon.
I forgot this. My annual maintenance is using cotton swabs and isopropyl alcohol to clean all of the inner and outer threads. Then to lube, I use cotton swabs and Marvel Mystery oil. Petroleum jelly would make too much of a mess. One more tip. The plastic lens gets trashed in no time flat, so I've replaced all the lenses with good quality glass. Not cheap but well worth it.
thanks man
I've got one of these rolling around somewhere...
I love my mini-maglite double aa led but I'd love it a lot more if it took rechargeable batteries.
I had the AA incandescent and the D incandescent. Light was terrible low. But they were rock solid. I still have both somewhere. I like the retro lol of the LED. But that Archer goes for about $100 Canadian. Which is a bit much. Lol
I like the size of that, still a compact for me.
Hej I agree with you it's nice with a small compact flashlight that shines well have a nice weekend.
Does anyone make a push button end cap for the double AAA maglite and the single AAA maglite. Their smaller size is ideal.
Maglite xl50 has and end cap button
@@DutchieMcDutchface thats thick. I love the 2 smallest mags for all day carry.
Maglite has a „new“ Solitaire version, 47 lumens but better Output.
And the Maglite Xl 50/200 are also really nice lights. :)
nice, I notice they change these models rather often.
Why don't they (i.e. LED) work with NiMH AA rechargeable type batteries ? 🤔😕🤕😒
Mine work just fine with EBL rechargeable batteries. Not sure why everyone has issues 🤔
@@MusicalHifi54 Yeah I figured out that a couple of days later since that post. I just had to recharge them in another charger. 🙄😏
$15 …..😯😯😯😯😳 they are $50 here in England off Amazon 😳
আমি একটা লাইট চাই। কি করে পেতে পারি।
This is now 35 dollars with taxes ...crazy... great product though
Are they still even making flashlights? 127 lumens! ! hahaha MAGLITE was IT for SO LONG.... but they got dusted by their competition.
They're most certainly still going albeit with an LED range as opposed to the incandescent.
I’m going to beg to differ regarding the price. You’re saying the mini mag is $15? It’s on Amazon now for $30. I see this video was made 10 months ago but I don’t think this light has been $15 for many years.
I see what you’re saying about the pro plus only having 2.25 hours on high but it does have a low mode for 24 hours which is pretty good. Honestly, over time I’ve noticed that the rare times I need a flashlight I only need it for a few minutes which sometimes changes my view about long run times.
If needed for work regularly that’s a totally different concern.
It was an outgoing model, I did buy it last year for that price...now everything is becoming inflated.

@@todderbert Wow great catch! 👍
Maglite LED flashlights are 5000K not 6500K.
good to know, though mine seemed to trend way to the cool white side.
Heh. First!!
