My Mag-Lites are starting to piss me off.....can't seem to keep them working well.

Anyone have a recommendation for a "better" 3D cell light?

Andy...keep the mags...replace the bulds to high power low consuption leds. ebay

Actually........I just did an in depth analysis of why they arent working well and figured out that the connection between the rear spring and the end cap was marginal. A little emery cloth and some vaseline fixed me right up!

Now how can I fix this flashlight?

Dint think of that.

assumed you were using it as a light.

I freakin gave up on the Mag lights, JUNK!!! Bought a Craftsman similiar style,I use it everyday at work takes a beating!!! 1-time payment any probs take it back too the store and they replace it FREE!!! Never have too buy another!!! This last one has lasted 5+ yrs and have not had too replace it yet,still lightin the way!!! Cheaper then the Mags also!!!

SureFire. Even the small ones will light up the night.

There simply is not any flashlight that is better than Surefire lights.

They outperform any other light, including the famous MagLites. You can get a small handheld flaslight with real momentary or constant on switching that puts out more light than a 3D cell MagLite, all for $60. And it fits in your pants pocket.

I paid $38 for my surefire,

on the Bay. I love this thing. Small size, super bright.
