## Description

Product Description The Solitaire 1-Cell AAA Incandescent Flashlight from Maglite is a compact, lightweight, and durable illumination tool with an adjustable beam that goes from a wide flood to a tight spotlight with a simple twist of its head. Powered by a single included AAA battery, it produces a single 2-lumen output that is ideal for reading or searching under seats or in drawers. Constructed out of an anodized aluminum alloy, the Solitaire is corrosion, impact, and weather resistant. Weighing only 0.8 ounces, it is the perfect size to carry with you and comes with a key lead. With the dependability of the Solitaire on your keys, you never have to be without light again. From the Manufacturer No more fumbling to get your key in the lock, this innovative flashlight allows you to use your keys and the light beam in the same direction at the same time. Weighing less than one ounce (with battery), this flashlight is three inches long with a unique shape that makes it fit conveniently into a pocket or purse. The cam-driven head changes the beam from spot to flood, with the turn of the flashlight head, making it easier for you to see what and where you need to. It's anodized inside and out for improved corrosion resistance and durability, with a self-cleaning switch that virtually eliminates oxidation. The high grade O-rings at each opening ensure resistance to water and shock while the low resistance circuitry allows a more efficient use of the batteries. The diamond-knurled handle is easy to grip, and the spare lamp in the tail cap will keep your path lit. Your purchase includes a key lead accessory and AAA battery. Manufactured in the United States. Color: purple.

Review: Excellent EDC 🔦 Incandescent & LED - Purchased two 2️⃣ based upon prior Maglite ownership for our EDC 🔑 keychains. Excellent/Highest Quality Maglite construction and promises years of trouble free use. Lite in weight and fits nicely on key 🔑 chain as an EDC - see accompanying photo with size comparison beside a two D cell Maglite. 🔦 BUT, twist to ‘turn on’ can be irksome/not easy to use and slow. the steady beam of the incandescent light 💡 is a bit yellow but satisfactory illumination up to approximately 3+ meters. This is NOT a TACTICAL FLASHLIGHT. But, consider that this is a single AAA battery 🔋flashlight 🔦 and all is forgiven. You will probably own and use this for 10+ years so overall an excellent value. Guessing that many years from now you will look at this flashlight 🔦 on your key 🔑 chain and say ‘I can’t believe how long I’ve owned this.’ Quality has a price. 💰 UPDATE: Purchased two 2️⃣ additional Maglite Solitaire BUT in the LED version. Same quality and design but with a whiter albeit wider beam. Both incandescent and LED are excellent and have found a home on our key 🔑 rings.
Review: Great for when you really WANT a dimmer light - At only 2 lumens, this incandescent Maglite Solitaire flashlight is an order of magnitude less bright than newer designs, including the latest 47-lumen LED version of the Solitaire. But sometimes a much dimmer light is exactly what you want, for example to look for a dropped object in the car or read a map at night without blinding the driver, or to provide close-up illumination when you're looking through a magnifier to identify a tiny electronic part at your workbench. Just don't leave an alkaline battery in the Solitaire and then forget it in a drawer for several years, because the old battery will leak and ruin the flashlight, which is why I recently had to buy a replacement. Think I'll keep an Energizer Ultimate lithium battery in this one. Update Nov 2019: Despite owning dozens of higher-output flashlights, I have just ordered my fourth incandescent Maglite Solitaire in the last two years because I keep finding more applications for low-level, close-up illumination. I keep one incandescent Solitaire in each car so my passenger can look through a bag or read a map during night drives without blinding the driver, I keep one at my workbench to provide close-up lighting for working on small parts, and I take one on camping outings to provide low-level lighting in the tent or for finding my way to the bath house without disturbing other campers. And of course, you should always have a spare, so maybe I will order a fifth incandescent Solitaire. Yes, I also carry a higher-output light for when 2 lumens is not bright enough for the job, but for many situations, I find that the classic incandescent Maglite Solitaire produces just the right amount of light.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ !!!!!!!!! Size doesn't matter !!!! This light is too good to believe for its small size !!!!!!
*by M***E on April 30, 2015*

I was looking for a small and lightweight light for my upcoming trip to Anza Borrego where we plan to got for a night trek. Also I wanted a light to try some light painting and some other kind of trick photography. I had heard about the Maglite but had never used any of their lights. Mostly because they are insanely priced. I thought its the best time to try a Maglite which is not very expensive and will serve the dual purpose. Just to clarify many questions, its NOT LED. The light is incandescent. Also many people have asked how many batteries it takes. It takes only one AAA battery and a Duracell AAA battery is supplied with this light. Another feature I liked was the extra bulb provided in the cap. Its a little tricky to get it out of the housing (you need to press the spring in and then pull it out). Innovative !!!! The good features: 1. Made of goos quality steel which feels sturdy and durable 2. The beam is pretty strong for a light that takes only one AAA battery 3. Can be easily focussed or used for a diffused light 4. The lanyard supplied with it is of very good quality and can be used to attach the light to bag, etc.. 5. Extra lamp is supplied in the cap 6. The front part can be unscrewed completely to turn it in to a candle light mode for use during camping etc.. 7. Life time warranty by the manufacturer 8. The specifications dont provide the weight. I would say it weighs about 20-25 grams with batteries and lanyard included. The bad: Nothing at all !!! Although I wish it were a little longer and could take two batteries. At this price, I would definitely recommend this light for general purpose and for those who repeatedly need to switch on and off their lights during trekking/hiking. !!!!!!!!!! Worth buying!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! No regrets !!!!!!!!!!
