Great light with little known feature,
All the mag lites share solid aluminum construction and rubber o-ring seals.
What sets the mini mag off from the other mag lites is its size (easy to hold with teeth while working under car, sink, etc) and one little known feature – “candle” mode. You adjust the beam focus by rotating the mini mag’s head, but if you continue turning the head pops off; you are left with the handle and the exposed bulb, which is now throwing light in all directions – it is a “candle”. Flip the head over, place it on the ground/table – it is now a “candle holder”. Stick the candle into the candle holder. Instant candle for camping. (These directions are actually on the mini mag’s packaging, but it wasn’t until I had bought my third mini mag (one for car, kitchen, daypack) that I noticed. This is actually a great trick to show other mini mag owners… they also threw their packaging away without looking it. The larger mag lights don’t have this feature.)
Two mini mags in the candle mode do a good job on a picnic table at night… so get two of them… they’re cheap.

|Perfection.,
I have been using these same lights for 12 years now. The AA ones are waterproof to about 30 feet or so (the O-rings keep the seal airtight). I don’t know if maglite supports that use though
I use them not only as lights, but to prop doors open, hammer small nails. These things are TOUGH! Keep one in the car. One in the kitchen. One in the bedroom. One in the toolbox. One at work. Helpful Hints: Lightly grease the O rings with vaseline or other petroleum jelly occasionally (wipe off excess). This keeps the seals watertight, and makes the light work like new. take off head of flashlight, and examine the bulb (not lit!) – after a while they get burnt on the inside – replace occasionally to maintain maximum illumination! Replacement bulbs are CHEAP! Get some! I use these a LOT! Consider using NiMH rechargeable batteries.

|Universal Light,
The first one I had was black, just like Model-T. Being dark and inside my dark overalls pocket, I forgot about it until it fell. It fell couple more times since. It is still working. It is a good size to go inside the tool box permanently. The size is also small enough to go inside where only your hand can reach. Sometimes in my line of work in seismic oil exploration I need to do come cabling, the Mini helps to get the connection right.
Bought a few more Mag lights since the first one, seeing as it is tough and rain proof. But when I travel it is the Mini that comes along instead of the Mag Solitaire because the AA size batteries is the most universally available battery you can find in most countries.
Torch (flashlight to you guys in US) is like penknives, tend to need it in an emergency. So one lives with the Leatherman, one in the car glove box, the old one still in the tool box.
Yeah, I have held the torch in my lips too in the past but now recommend a headband by Nite Ize to turn it into a headlamp. Another item worth considering if you go hiking a lot is the Nite Ize “Pock-its”. This is a holster for Mini Mag Light and Leatherman, spare batteries.
