Sep 8, 2004 #1 Stingray Flashlight Enthusiast Joined Nov 21, 2002 Messages 1,202 Location Chicago I'm preparing for another hurricane and I have many inexpensive maglites in addition to all my high end lights. Anyone know the runtime of 2AA minimags (which make good fireproof candles) and 3D and 6D mags on alkalines?
