The mini-Mag 2-AA LED is a great light just like all of the other Mag Lite products (in my opinion). However, runtime testing has uncovered the fact that the light abrubtly shuts down after about 4 hours (using alkalines). Apparently this is due to the fact that the batteries fall below the regulator's design voltage. This could be an issue if you expect diminished light output to be your indicator to change the batteries. There is no "moon" mode.
I buy LED lights for reliability and long run times. This is the only fault I can find with this light and perhaps I should stop my "whinning".
Am I out of line with this concern? I walk the dog at night (about 2 miles) and just don't want to have to carry a spare light just in case the mini-Mag shuts down without warning.
