Maglite question

I was watching a dvd recently with my wife. She noticed a 5 or 6 D size flashlight which looked like a maglite and it was Gold in colour. It had to be at least 14-17 inches in length. It also looked like it was incan rather than LED. I have checked the internet and can’t seem to find anything that resembles it. My wife really wants one and while she is interested in MY hobby / obsession, she says most of my lights are boring, because of the same mostly black colour. I say mostly, as I do have others that are coloured. To give you an idea of her lights, she uses a red E09 on her keyring and she just bought one of those Gat light clones (with the coloured 5mm lights around the top). I noticed there are some Rayovac’s that sort of looked like it but the light we saw was more modern. Does anyone know of a gold light like this, maglite or otherwise? My luck, this will be some super rare version of a limited run.

Wow..that Tank007 E09 is a neat little setup

Not the light you described, but have you seen this? http://www.lightmalls.com/sky-ray-s2-desert-yellow-1xcree-xm-l-t6-1800-lumen-5-mode-led-flashlight-1x18650-1x26650

Yes, seen that one but ( I am asking for trouble here ) but my wife likes them really long :slight_smile: flashlights, I’m talking about flashlights :wink:

there are big lights at dx and other similar sites, iirc 12xml, 3 26650, with goldish color anodizing.
like this one.

maglites 5-6d come only in black or red.

Post 73 in this thread has a pic of my baked (well, blowtorched) mag: My $2.24 triple emitter Mag Mod

I suspect it would be hard to match color of the head/body since they’re so different, mass-wise.

What dvd was it?

I can't remember Maglite making a run of Gold lights. They have, over the years, made limited runs of several different colors. Of course, one could have been done custom as well.

Maybe it was a gold plated custom flashlight. Maglite only have sold a limited edition gold plating mini maglite.
Show this image to your wife. :heart_eyes:

Do not, I repeat do NOT show her that pic, it will cost you a bunch of money :bigsmile:

Not what you're looking for at the moment, but maybe bookmark this for later.

Paint a maglite red and put a 219 in for incan like light?

Or a red light or any other color maglite if that seems interesting. I’d imagine a properly driven 219 would run much longer than the stock bulb (and not break when you drop it).
