To start, I'm a Mag-mod freak with a small army of Mini-Mags all around the house and frequently give the as gifts to those who would appreciate them. Right from the first day I got my hands on a Mag drop-in for my standard black 3D. Love it so much I bought a 2-Cell version and put it in a silver 2C for my girlfriend to use.
The 2C is in my girlfriend's car, but the 3D is my 'under-the-bed' light. Along with a few other neccessities such as an ASP baton, a wired phone on the nightstand, and s shoebox full of Pokemon cards. Just the bare survival essentials. I swear I could trade a non-hologram Alakazam in a Y2K situation, don't you dare judge me.
I'm not a survival or home-defense addict, if the trading cards didn't give me away. I just have that junk under my bed because there's nowhere else to put it where some one won't pick something up and smash a TV with it, I just have those kind of friends.
I've loved both Mag-LEDs so much, and since Home Depot is selling them so cheap, I'm considering getting a 4D as my new under-bed light and keeping the 3D next to our door so I can grab it on my way out to wherever. For some reason, this forum's tests have shown the 3D to be brighter than the 4D. But, that extra cell means more runtime, and with how much a 2D Mag-LED will suck out of D cells, I can imagine that thing would run for a week straight.
This is a bump in the night light, is the extra brightness neccesary or is the extra shelf-life/runtime and added size a better perk?
