The onset of summer brings with it as many storm-induced power outages as it does camping trips. One thing these two things have in common is the need for a way to see in the dark. If you don't happen to have your night vision goggles with you, then the next best thing is a good flashlight. Few places have a bigger selection of flashlights than Amazon, and few brands have a better reputation than Maglite. We've found a way for you to put those two together and get a great deal.
The Maglite ML300LX Flashlight is on sale right now for just $45. That's 48% off the regular price of $86. This may be the brightest idea we've had in a while.

Like all Maglite products, this one has durability written all over it. The rugged exterior and ergonomic ridged handle are the perfect representations of the light's sturdy build. It's waterproof and shock resistant, meaning a little rain won't stop it, nor will an accidental drop here and there. It has a weighty substantial feel in the hand that gives you the confidence to trust this tool.
Powered by two D batteries, the light offers 487 lumens of brightness and a 40-hour use time with new batteries. It also has four light settings that can be controlled by either single-clicking or double-clicking the button. The LED bulbs give off a bright white light that'll keep you feeling safe at night.
Amazon shoppers adored this flashlight. One called it "well-designed, rugged, and easily adjustable," adding that it's "bright" as well. "It's also comfortable to hold. I would absolutely buy it again."
Another customer claimed they "gave this as a gift to an old army guy who loved the grip. This is also the brightest Maglite I've seen. This light has me starting my Maglite obsession back up again!"
The Maglite ML300LX Flashlight will make your evenings bright, no matter where you are. At just $45, this rugged flashlight should be purchased ASAP. Otherwise, it may sell out and you'll be left in the dark.
