Back in 019 Maglite updated the classic 2D light. Same mechanical switch (more or less) as the 1980 version. Same reflector (more or less) etc. It tosses out a bit over 200 lumens the same way the 1980 one did. The 1980 one appeared way brighter than most flashlights of the era. The 019 one appears way way brighter. And it has a stated 17 hour runtime. I figure around 6-8 hour good n bright runtime.
It has a low said to be 30% of high. Yet the main difference on low is spill is reduced. The light still throws almost like it's on high. The stated run time for that mode is 127 hours.
One could adapt eneloops and get a ridiculous runtime from a pair of double a batteries running it on the low mode.
