The Maglite® ML50L® 3-Cell C LED Flashlight is a mid-size, high-performance flashlight designed for professional work, home emergency preparedness, security, roadside use, camping, outdoor activities, and everyday illumination. Powered by three standard C-cell alkaline batteries, the ML50L 3C produces up to 705 lumens, projects a beam up to 357 meters (approximately 1,171 feet), and delivers 31,889 candela of peak beam intensity. Three power levels provide runtimes ranging from 9 hours 45 minutes on High to 184 hours in Eco Mode. The ML50L 3C also combines Maglite's QuickClik® electronic switching, four selectable function sets, Quick Focus® spot-to-flood adjustment, LED Heat-Sink Technology, rugged aluminum construction, IPX4 water resistance, and 1-meter drop resistance.

1. 357-Meter Beam Reach, Up to 184 Hours Runtime & 705 Lumens

The ML50L 3C combines long-range beam performance with selectable brightness levels and extended battery runtime. At maximum output, the flashlight produces 705 lumens and projects its beam up to 357 meters (approximately 1,171 feet). Its focused beam delivers 31,889 candela of peak beam intensity, providing concentrated illumination for viewing objects, terrain, work areas, and other targets at a distance.

Three power levels allow brightness and battery life to be matched to the task. High delivers 705 lumens for up to 9 hours 45 minutes, Low delivers 105 lumens for up to 43 hours, and Eco delivers 22 lumens for up to 184 hours. The extended Eco runtime provides more than 7 days of continuous light when maximum brightness is not required.

2. LED Heat-Sink Technology with Quick Focus® Spot-to-Flood Beam Control

The ML50L 3C uses LED technology with LED Heat-Sink Technology designed to help manage heat generated by the LED during operation and support efficient LED performance.

Maglite's improved Quick Focus® system provides fast control over the shape of the beam. Turning the flashlight head adjusts the beam from a concentrated spot for longer-distance viewing to a broader flood for illuminating a wider nearby area. The adjustment from spot to flood requires about ¼ turn of the head, allowing the beam pattern to be changed quickly while the flashlight is in use.
