Two cells instead of three take 66 millimetres off the length and 176 grams off the weight, which changes what the torch is comfortable being asked to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the shorter body wins\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 232 millimetres and 566 grams it fits a door pocket, a glovebox, a toolbox tray and most bags without everything else being arranged around it. It is also considerably easier to hold out at arm's length for any period, which matters more than it sounds when you are checking something above head height or working one handed with the torch in the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe longer model reaches further and runs longer. Where neither of those is the constraint, this is the more pleasant torch to actually use, and it tends to be the one people settle on once both have been in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eML300L 2D Cell output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuminous flux is 487 lumens with a beam range of 291 metres, and eco mode runs up to 260 hours on a pair of D cells. Focus works the same way as on the larger version: a quarter turn of the head takes the beam from flood to spot. Five modes are available, High, Low, Eco, Momentary and Strobe, across four selectable function sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo D cells\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cells are not supplied, which is standard for the format, and replacements are on sale everywhere. Alkaline D cells hold charge for years in storage, so a torch left in a vehicle through a winter still works when it is next picked up. There is no cradle to install and nothing to plug in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo hundred and sixty hours\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEco mode runs up to 260 hours, close to eleven days of continuous light. For a torch kept against power cuts or emergencies that figure matters far more than the maximum output does, because the situation it gets bought for is a long one rather than a bright one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision machined high strength aircraft aluminium alloy, anodised, with weather resistant seals and IPX4 water resistance. Impact resistance is rated at 1 metre. Contacts are plated against oxidation, the switch is a side mounted push button, and the barrel is 39 millimetres with a 57 millimetre head, matching the three cell version.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-mode electronic switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 lighting modes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 function sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable beam, flood to spot with ¼ turn of the head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh strength aircraft aluminium alloy case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeather resistant seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Handheld LED torch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Modes: High \/ Low \/ Eco \/ Momentary \/ Strobe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuminous Flux: 487 lumens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED: LED Chip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocus: Twist action; spot to flood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeam Range: 291m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatteries Required: 2 x D-Cell alkaline (not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun Time: Up to 260 hours (on eco setting)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 232 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarrel Diameter: 39 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Diameter: 57 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 566 grams (with batteries)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColours Available: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Material: Precision machined high strength aircraft aluminium alloy case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Anodised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical Contacts: Plated contacts to enhance conductivity and reduce oxidation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch Type: Side mounted ‘push’ button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpact Resistance: 1 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental: Water resistant to IPX4 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MAGLITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50239841960176,"sku":"15818","price":2567.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/2651\/0008\/files\/Maglite-ML300L-2C-side-view.jpg?v=1787236089","url":"https:\/\/neonsales.co.za\/products\/maglite-ml300l-2d-cell-led-487lm-black-clam","provider":"NeonSales","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
