So I've been curious, I have this fairly old maglite that runs off of what I believe is 1 AAA and then I have an older 2D maglite. The mini maglite (as I believe it's called someone correct me if I'm wrong) is not even bright enough to light up something 10 feet away in my backyard, heck, I can barely see stuff in my room with it. My 2D maglite is much more useable and can effectively light up my backyard, which brings me to my question..
How do old handheld lights (WW1, WW2, Vietnam etc.) Compare to these Maglites in terms of output and performance, I've seen many online but never really much info about the workings of them.
If anyone has some specific lights that they'd like to share the specs of and how they operate and work, I'd love to know!
Also, I am aware many of you are opposed to restoring old lights but I'm all for at least making them work again but in my opinion you can make the light operate while leaving all the scuffs and dents in it
