Mag instrument, Inc., the world leader in flashlight technology, will introduce its most powerful flashlight yet — the rechargeable ML150 LR. Despite its mid-size (C-cell format) dimensions, the ML150LR generates a stunning 1,000 lumens* and achieves a beam distance of over a quarter-mile. And thanks to multiple power settings and critical efficiency innovations, it can run for up to 75 hours on a single charge of its state-of-the-art Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery. In achieving this performance milestone, Mag Instrument’s research and development team started by tackling a long-known problem: An LED light engine must be kept cool to run efficiently, and poor heat dissipation is a serious performance-limiting factor with high-output LEDs. The solution, newly patented by Mag Instrument, is an integral heat-sinking technology that quickly drains heat from the LED. According to Tony Maglica, president and founder of Mag Instrument, “The new MAGLITE ML150LR is the first flashlight to embody this new heat sink technology, and the performance results are spectacular – a real breakthrough. But still, let’s not forget optics. While many flashlight brands tout their high lumen outputs, that doesn’t get you very far unless you also have the superior beam-forming optics needed to shape all that light into a versatile, focusable and effective beam that puts the light where the user needs it. A flashlight should be a powerful, manageable, durable, dependable portable light source that is long-lasting. This new flashlight checks all the boxes magnificently.”
