    2 AA Minimag Vs 2 AAA Minimag (Penlight) Incans

    Just found the info and compared to specs, although I think those specs were using a krypton in the aaa. Like a previous poster mentioned the xenon would make the lumens, beam distance, candela and run time increase.

    Maglite Incan Solitaire

It is rated all weather outdoors and drop proof also being anodized aircraft aluminum it's strong. You can use the 2-3 lumen incandescence to adjust to daylight better...

    WW2 Incan Colored Lenses

    What were the colored lenses used on the old L shape style flashlights? The one that the bottom unscrewed and had multiple lenses. I think the colors are blue red and yellow. Was it for pure signaling?

    Why I hate LED Flashlights and Lights

    Yeap I did away with many LEDs in my house. 1.) I am using flashlights to search for items either outside or inside, I need to be able to see colors that incandescent bulbs provide, and that white LED just washes out. 2.) Discreet searching. I feel like I'm holding a signaling devices rather...
