AA MiniMag Collection - Part 4

[turbodog]

Although this is not exactly a reply to greenleds post but I just recievied a shipment from mag thru a supplier who ordered for me. at the bottom of this post is a picture of the box label, complete with name lt. Lt. teal and the sku. On my invoice from my supplier it just says teal the sku on the label may be an internal one as all the data bases I can check return no results. While cleaning up the shop this morning I came across an old box that held the teals that I got two years ago and the label appears to be stamped not a white label like these new one's that have a date. What I find frustrating is that when talking to mag on friday I found that no two people at mag tell the same story. If any one who purchased a teal from me would like a copy of the box label for their light please e-mail me and I will reply with a picture as an attachment for the light you bought. Also if there is a formal list of all the colors
mag made could you please tell me where this Lt teal fits in it. Thanks Phil/yourlightsource.com

The m2aXXY (m2a33L) format is the correct format for the minimag. The XX is the color, and the Y is a designator for blister pack, black clamshell, etc.

One thing.... my teal I got from you doesn't have the new style bulb. The overall light's likely several years old. I think the new style bulbs (green or black bulb base) started coming out 4 years ago maybe.

It would be great if we were able to get a list of the XX and Y codes. I assume that's not something Mag would be forthcoming about though.

Someone might be able to get a list from Maglite. Send them an email, reference a large collector base ( CPF Members who post in this thread )

TD has the most complete list that I have seen..

[turbodog]

Someone that can program needs to write a script that searches google for m2aXX and filters the results for mag/flashlight/etc.

I did some manual searches that way and discovered some of my part #s. But once they hit the alpha characters it became a wasted effort.

You could also search for the other part # they use: xxx-yyy-zzz. But it's not nearly as common.

[dieselducy]

Look what i managed to get my hands on. Is this worth anything? My uncle gave this to me and it is in almost mint condition.

That looks like a 2AAA light... right?

[souptree]

That light is my Maglite Holy Grail. I have been searching for that light for a LOOOOOOONG time (since before I ever heard of CPF). That is the first one I have EVER seen!!!!! PM Sent!!

[dieselducy]

yep it is. a 2AAA maglite version.. Is this a rare light? and if it is, Is it worth anything?? I'm just curious cause i wanna know if my uncle gave me a flashlight i should throw in the glove box, or if i should keep it in my maglite collection?

[will]

That is a collectable light, not a beater. I couldn't guess a price, I don't go after LOGO lights very often. I have a few that caught my eye that fit with some of my other hobbies.

[snakebite]

i have the 3c version.
old one as no c in the serial and ontario,calif,usa on bezel.
same etched/machined logo.
did mac do this or mag?at any rate it was a trash find i put a k2 in.its a user not a collector.

This is probably the wrong thread to post this in, but I couldn't find a D-cell Mag section. I apologize if I'm off topic. I was just wondering if any of you Mag collectors have one of these. It's a Mac Tools 2D Mag, I bought it back in '96 or so when I was a mechanic. I used it for performing safety inspections of vehicles. I'm just curios if it's rare, or just a really old Mag.
Btw, the Mac Tools logo isn't painted on, it's etched.

"Worth" is in the eye of the beholder. Like Will, it'd be hard to determine a price since I am not interested in logo'ed lights. That said, I think a fair price for a collectible color/style might be around $25. That's, of course, my current maximum personal price range.

Laser etching can be done by mag if you order enough qty. It's also available at a ton of value-added shops.

Mag will even do a custom color if you order several thousand. I have the exact figure in my files as I seriously entertained it one time.

Apparently there's 2 types of Mag camo patterns (the traditional woodland and digital). In this post, jcs71 claims there's a 2AA miniMagLED in digital camo.

I've only seen the traditional 2AA minimags we collect in the woodland camo pattern. I did a quick Google search and the only digital camo minimags I found were the 3AA MagLED's (no 2AA MagLEDs, as claimed).

Anybody's seen the "regular" 2AA minimags in digital camo? Or info on the 2AA LED version in that camo pattern? (not that I'm interested in the latter for my collection, but I figured it'd be cool to see one)

[willrx]

I have a 2AA MiniMag LED in digital camo. Bought it at Fry's.

[will]

I checked out the Maglite site ( www.maglite.com ) The Camo styles they show for the 2AA mini, the 2AA MagLED and the 3AA MagLED are the digital style ( all square corners )

Is this the new style ? Where are they available ?

[greenLED]

Is this the new style ? Where are they available?

I'm thinking it must've been released recently.

I only heard about them last night and have never seen one for real. I found one on-line site that has them. I sent them an e-mail asking to confirm whether this is in fact the digital camo version of the traditional 2AA minimag.

turbodog, the code seems to be M2AMHR.

Looks promising! Yet another addition to the collection!?!........
Let us know what you find out as I'm actually going to wait on this one.

Actually than three different camos would be available if you count this splash anodized camo!

I'm hoping so. It's not every day that we find a new production model.

I'll report as soon as I hear back from the shop. I'm abroad and delivery times are long, so somebody else will have to take the plunge to report sooner.

I really like the one 7th from the right. That's neat looking!

[farmall]

Here's a pretty good photo.

[greenLED]

Looking good!

I find it a bit odd that the digital camo pattern seems to be preferentially offered in the MagLED versions. Could it be that Mag will eventually discontinue the classic incan 2AA?

[will]

I ordered from All Spectrum the following

Mini Maglite Flashlight, 2 AA Cell, HOLSTER COMBO, DIGITAL CAMO (M2AMRH).

I don't think there was a 'Woodlands' Camo available for the MagLED.

It's led. Look at the tailcap.

[will]

If you check out the Maglite web site, you will see that all the Camo lights are now Digital Camo.
They now have the following in Digital Camo listed.

2AA - Incan
2AA - LED
3AA - LED

3D - Incan
3D - LED

I think the 2AA and 3AA Digital Camos are new colors to that product line.

[greenLED]

It's led. Look at the tailcap.

The split ring hole could be on the back of the pic? The head looks to have the right proportion to be incan, though.

I haven't heard from these guys. Anybody US-based willing to call them and verify?

From their website, phone numbers:

Farmall's is the LED version, the head is longer than than an Incan light. I ordered from All Spectrum - they have the digital camo incan version of the light. I should have it a few days.

[souptree]

It's too bad the Solis and 2xAAAs never got the camo treatment.
