You do know that they have a lifetime warranty fromt the factory?
I ripped the little rubber button on mine, one call and a few

Re: Mag lite-where?
I have had my Six D-Cell (same ones the cops use) now for 8 years and the
only thing I had to replace was the rubber seal on the switch. I love my
Mag-lite!
But I also would like to find a good place to store it in my '02 TJ.
