Ken on Feb 27, 2011 - 9:40 AM I have a 4 D cell version of this I bought in the mid-eighties. It's rolled around under the seat of all the vehicles I've owned since then. The anodizing has gotten purplish and pretty scratched in places, the lens is not bad, and the switch still works fine. I installed a Mag-Lite LED conversion a few years back, and the old girl is ready for another 25 years, brighter than ever. A solid unit.
