What LEDs are Maglite using now (2012)?

This has been asked to me; I hazarded a guess, but I didn't know the real answer. If I remember correctly they ditched Luxeons a while ago... what are they running now? Rebels? Crees?

CREE XP-E

I had a 2D and a 3D on the Back Friday, and a XL200 before that. 2D is Rebel, 3D XP-E. XL200 has a XP-G I guess.

What Mag's are you asking about specifically? As you've got the D series 2 and 3 cell Mags, The XL Series which uses 2 different LEDs, the ML series, the Mini Mag series which now has the Pro and Pro+ versions out and of course the forth coming Mag Tac.

Thanks, this is what I needed to know. About time Maglite finally decided to keep up with the times. Let's hope they keep it up.

If only they could figure out the whole waterproofing, glass lens, nobody likes 3AAA's thing...

Hmmm, I wonder...on a WorldWide basis, just how many nobody's buy those 3AAA's.....

I didn't say buy I said like haha AA's are so much better. I like my XL50 and its a great size just not very good capacity to volume ratio
