The bulb in my minimag has gone out when I dropped it and when a fresh set of batteries weren't even used up yet.

I believe that is the problem for me. All my other 2AA and 2AAA incan lights have lasted a LONG time on the bulbs wheras the mag's went out ALL THE TIME! And that's with cleaning the finger oils off with an alcohol wipe before I put the head back on.
As far as having a spare in the tail, I think that it was one of the smartest things they did for the m!n!-gag.
I don't fault the light--I fault the cheap bulbs.
I have a mitylight that's more than 6 years old, WAY brighter and has seen much more use (and abuse), and is only on the second bulb/reflecor.
