need recommendations on where to buy a part for a AA mini maglite

aerotive · Jan 29, 2006

Howdy. I've lost the clear lens from my AA mini maglite. I've tried to find it locally with no luck. Can someone recommend a reliable online retailer for this part?

If you want a plastic lens just cut one out of a broken CD case.

Welcome to CPF, aerotive, why dontcha stay awhile!

I had bought my replacement glass lenses from flashlightlens.com, but they don't currently have anything for the Minimag. Flashlightking sells a glass lens, I'd be happier with that, but it does cost 3.5 times more'n the plastic...

welcome again,

With the lens and shipping, add in interest on credit card purchase, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to just buy a new one? (Assuming you're in the states ,that is.)

The Mini Maglite accessory kit has comes with a clear lens (along with red and blue lenses, an anti-roll rubber bezel cover, and a pocket clip). Pretty cheap, too.

aerotive,

PM me with your address. I think I have some lenses laying around. I'll send you one.

Whoa, that's a good tip, never thought of that! Wonder how hard it is to keep the plastic from cracking when you cut it though.

i've also got extra lenses if you need them. i bought them from a pack with a maglite, sheath, anti-roll ring, and 3 extra lenses

There may be a repair place close to where you live perhaps. http://www.maglite.com/repaircenters.asp

The lens cost $0.49cdn at the one that is near where I am.

I used a scroll saw and an upright belt sander to replace the lense on a rayovac 4AA light I converted to LED. It had a magnifying lense that skewed the 3 LED bulb I made to fit.
