2 New Promotional Maglights (Maglites®) have smooth barrels. Why? to make your full color logo look great! The original K3A Solitaire and the M2A Mini Maglite® are now available with an optional “smooth finish” barrel. Anthony Maglica is always coming up with new ideas. This keeps the company fresh and exciting. The aluminum barrels are still available with the knurled finish, for the purists. Promotional Maglites® are sure to stay on the leading edge of the flashlight industry as long as Anthony Maglica provides vision for this American-Made company.
The history of Maglites® has been rich in innovations. The introduction of LED bulbs, lighting modes, and rechargeable flashlights have been the beacons of success. Now the newest development in promotional Maglites® is the “red bulb”. Why red? If you took physics in high school, you might remember that the visible light spectrum goes from red to violet. Red is at the low energy end, and violet is at the high energy end of the spectrum. So the low energy red is easier on your eyes, because it has less energy. It is preferred by pilots and truck drivers and boaters.
The Solitaire LED Spectrum-Red j3asw2 has the new red bulb. Safer for your eyes when you are in confined spaces.
Maglites have always had knurled handles, to make a better grip. But the trouble was that doing a full color imprint on the handle showed some unevenness in the coloring at the edges of a logo. This problem has been solved by making these 2 Maglites available with a smooth barrel. Now your full color imprint will look magnificent.
