My Maglite 'mini' was purchased for me by my parents when I moved into my own house, you should be able to get one for around a tenner from Amazon but expect to pay nigh on double that in an outdoors shop. Every house needs a torch, there are always those little nooks and crannies that are impossible to see into such as under the stairs, in the cupboards, under the sink, and when you are searching for pennies under the sofa so that you can go and get a 10p mix. There are also those times when a drink driver crashes into an electricity sub-station and plunges the neighbourhood into darkness whilst you're constructing a scale replica of the titanic using matchsticks.

I have had my mini maglite for around three years now it is not the silver one like in the picture but it is a metalic blue colour and I carry it in my handbag. It cost me £19.99 from a local store called Sheppards which sells hardware and houshold goods. But you can find them at most camping outlet stores and online. The mini maglite is 162mm x 18mm and comes in a nice box that protects it from knocks, I don't keep it in the box as it is quite capable of getting knocked about in my handbag and so far I have not had to replace any of the parts due to damage, I have replaced the bulb in the three years I have owned this but that was just due to the usage it ...  Read the complete review

Introduction: Being a bit of a gadget fan, I've always had a soft-sport for torches. To be honest, the torches in my collection are seldom used, but whenever they are needed, they're always there and always reliable. The main, and most used torch in my collection is the Mini-Maglite. In fact, I love them so much that I own three in total: Two for around the house and one for the car. General Usage: The torch itself is quite small and could fit into trouser pockets or a handbag very easily. Despite the case being constructed entirely of metal, it is also quite lightweight and it isn't a burden to carry. The ...  Read the complete review

Maglite Mini Torch I received one of these Maglite mini torches as a present from a friend. At the time I was living in a second floor flat but there was no lighting what so ever in the hallway and interior stairs. It made going home at night time a bit creepy after a night out especially if you ran into someone else on the stairs because you really couldn't see them until they were right in front of you. Thankfully this was eventually taken care of and the building invested in security lighting. Since then I have been grateful for this torch on more than one occasion. When I received this it came in a small hard wearing black plastic ...  Read the complete review
