Enlighten the Flare with Mag-Lite Solitaire

As a pre-millennium kid, you must be aware of the relationship between detectives and flashlights. Back in those days, the three investigators, Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys were all the rage. You could find every teen obsessing over these series, and each one of them secretly dreaming to become somewhat like the protagonist of these famous series.

This craze was not limited to the books. There were a couple of television series in those days that had their viewers glued to the coaches at fixed timings every week. The main characters of these series usually involved being a law-enforcer or a detective. Now, in addition to defense weapons, all of these characters had one thing in common. They all had flashlights! You could not imagine the main character in such a series without having a flashlight stuck at the back of their trousers, just like their guns.

Flashlights were and will always be every kid’s favorite. Thanks to all the image-building-series, kids feel they make you seem powerful and important. Moreover, flashlights are very useful. You can use them to lighten up dark places, and you can kill time playing with them. At least, this is what pre-Millenium kids used to do in the absence of gadgets that today’s kids have at their hands. This reminds us, the mobile flashlights have majorly replaced traditional ones.

Still, flashlights hold their flare. They are widely in use today because of their efficacy and long life. You cannot trust mobile phones to do every job in the best manner. It comes with its set of shortcomings, and this makes us realize the importance of the traditional pieces.

If you are thinking of getting your hands on a loyal flashlight that would last you a lifetime with the best performance, let us introduce you to Maglite®. Anyone who knows a little about flashlights is aware of Maglite.

Let us ask Wiki what makes Maglite so popular?
Maglite (also spelled Mag-Lite, stylized as MAG-LITE) is a brand of flashlight manufactured in the United States by Mag Instrument, Inc. located in Ontario, California, and founded by Anthony Maglica. It was introduced in 1979. Constructed principally of anodized 6061 aluminum, they have a variable-focus beam. Maglites are produced in several colors such as black, silver, blue, red, green, purple, gold, and different finishes. Originally Maglite flashlights used krypton or xenon incandescent bulbs. Current models have LEDs, although the older models are still widely available.

Accessories include belt holsters, mounting brackets, colored and glass lenses, attachable fiber optics extensions, higher-powered incandescent bulbs, and LED conversion modules. The Maglite was an improvement over the Kel-Lite, after which the Maglite was patterned.

Maglite and law enforcement:
This may come as a surprise to many but Maglite flashlights were once used as batons. This justifies their sturdy make. In 2004, the Los Angeles Police Commission moved to use smaller flashlights, with Alan Skobin, the commission vice-president, stating that "This policy makes clear flashlights are for illumination and discourages their use as an impact tool. And it ensures officer safety as well as protects the public."

It is a common observation that the police officers usually use Maglite flashlights during confrontations. The beam can distract the suspects and in case of an attack, it can be used as a baton. However, since March 30, 2007, police officers are using smaller flashlights that ensure that they cannot be used as batons.
