Customer Rating: Summary: MAG LITE RECHARGEABLE - YOU NEED ONE Comment: I own two mag lite rechargeables. I place them each near doors in our home. When the power goes out, I know right where it is. No fumbling. I LOVE THIS LIGHT!!! Customer Rating: Summary: They're not like the XENON ones we use to be able to get! Comment: These work but they are not even close to putting out any where near the amount of light the older xenon bulbs use to. They're not 7 bucks a piece either so I guess it might be a down side but you're getting about 3x the bulbs for the money. If you want to get a really bright light maybe the maglite isn't good enough anymore if we can't keep it bright. There are a lot of other choices out there.
I've had mine for 14 years now on the beat and it still works. I've only had 2 batteries in it. I charge when it only needs to be charged. So in other words I've only bought one battery to replace the old one. It's lasted a long time so I guess I can't complain. I do find myself not using it a lot anymore because of the brightness of the flaslight. it's like a regular 3 cell anymore. Customer Rating: Summary: This bulb is great Comment: I love this bulb that works in the rechargable flashlight. I have used this in power outages for an hour untill the battery died. It lit up the whole room nicely. The price has came down on these bulbs also.
