![]() Mag Instrument Inc AM2A016 Mini AA Flashlight Accessory Pack By: Mag Instrument Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 10 More Information Great little upgrade kit I got a hold of two of these during a special sale that included this kit free for every 2 AA Maglite flashlight you bought. But its still a great buy at $5.00. What I like most about these kits are the rubber octagon lens hood, and the lanyard. The lanyard is long enough to be useful, and the rubber hood keeps the flashlight from rolling around when you need to set it somewhere and need the light not to move. Ive had a lot of trouble with this in the past, and though it might seem a little pricey for those two items, I wouldnt own a 2 AA Mag without at least the rubber lens protector/hood, and having an extra lens is nice since they do get scratched up pretty easily. So since they really do something I would recommend that you pick one or two up, particularly since they have free shipping with a total purchase of $25.00 or more. Last year I bought a few mini-mags and the same number of these as stocking stuffer at Christmas, and everyone seemed to love em. Anyway I enjoy the two we have, and as I said will not own a mini-mag again without one of these kits. OK product Ive seen this item for sale at Ace Hardware and other places for a few dollars more, so I bought it from Amazon to fill an order for the free shipping. The only items of use to me are the lanyard and rubber protective boot. I actually received two of the clear lenses and I keep them in the drawer in the event I want to replace my original lens after it becomes more scratched than it already is. The clip and red/blue lenses have made their way to the trash can. The only problem with the lanyard is that it wont fit in my leather mag holster. No big deal though since I use it on another mag lite in the basement that I have hanging on a hook above the power panel in the event of an outage. nite vision saver The red filter and the rubber cap are needed in a boat or other situation at nite to keep your nite vision and your flashlite more stable. The clip also helps once I cannot use the string in a LED MINI MAG ( the end does not have a place to fit the ring). USEFULL This doesn't match the description The description says that it has an AMBER lens. It does not, so I had to return it. Strongly recommended!!! by: hikingstick On: 2006-06-14 I strongly recommend picking up this accessory pack. The rubber cover for the lens end that helps prevent the lamp from rolling and also absorbs some impact if dropped. The wrist strap lets you keep the lamp close at hand. I usually put the strap around my wrist when I slide into my sleeping bag--if I need to get up quickly during the night, the lamp is always available without requiring me to feel around on the tent floor or in the storage pouches. As noted by other reviewers, the plastic lens colors have changed. There are now blue, red, and clear lenses. Ive found the red one useful when I want to rummage through a pack when my tentmate has already turned in for the night. It gives you illumination that is not as harsh as the non-filtered white light (and it doesnt reset your night vision either). My only complaint has also been mentioned in other reviews--there is no place to store the other plastic lenses. I keep the red one on all the time, and I stow the other two in the sheath for my multi-tool. To me, getting the rubber cap and the wrist strap make this purchase worthwhile. The filter lenses are just gravy. Amber lens is not included in this kit by: jrhobus On: 2004-02-02 Be advised that MagLite has changed the content of this kit. Instead of red and amber lenses, the kit now has red, blue, and clear lenses. (The part number of the kit is still AM2A016.) Cool extras for your double A mini mag. by: the_other_yard_guy On: 2000-12-03 This is a great accessory pack. The rubber lens cover allows you to change lenses quickly, the red lens allows you to do things in the dark while maintaining your night vision, and the other accessories allow you to carry your flashlight just about anywhere. The only problem is that the different lenses are really easy to lose if your not using them. Cool extras for your double A mini mag. This is a great accessory pack.

Great for astronomy by: Anonymous On: 2000-06-28 The red lens is great for astronomy because it doesnt destroy your night-vision like a white lightbulb does. The other accessories are handy so you dont lose your flashlight when you are looking through your telescope.

The cord is very useful, just hang it on your wrist- than always trying to put it in a pocket. I use the colored lenses to see in the dark. People dont even notice me behind the curtain. Just like in the movie. A Great Steal! The Colored Lenses are the best! This combo pack is really great. The cord is very useful, just hang it on your wrist- than always trying to put it in a pocket.
