I found a new mod for a 4d mag.

I was out after dark around the house. Decided to sharpen the blades on the lawn mower. Got the tools. Put the mower up on ramps. Fiddled around with my Stinger and the socket wrench. Things were going poorly. I said "I need my 4d mag".

Got the mag, crawled back under the mower. Took the tail cap off and batteries out, slipped the light over my socket and presto... was finally able to remove the blade bolt. That sucker must have been tightened to about 250 ftlb.

Pays to keep those mags around after all!

lol think a pipe would of been safer. but that reminds of the time i had to remove a 2 inch bolt from a pitman arm on a old chevy van. it took a 2 inch wrech wheich is ard to find most wrench sets only go up to 3/4inch i thought id never get it off

This was a 15/16 thick wall 6 point socket that was already on an 18" pull bar. The blade bolt is about 14" long on that mower... and there are 3 of them.

If it were a Surefire you could send in a "How I used my light in an emergency" story!
