Maglite® Spectrum® Series Blue LED Models - Solitaire, Mini Maglite AA, Mini Maglite AAA, and XL50 • MAGLITE® Europe

SOLITAIRE LED:

The Maglite® Blue Spectrum Solitaire® LED Flashlight is an ultra-compact, single-AAA specialty flashlight that combines the familiar Solitaire® form with a purpose-built blue Spectrum LED. The blue beam is designed for applications where blue illumination offers advantages over conventional white light, including low-light map and chart reading, preserving visibility of map symbols, notes and elevation markings, blood tracking, forensic work, crime-scene examination, quality inspections, and hygiene audits. Small enough for a pocket, keychain, flight bag, field kit, or tool kit, it delivers 14 lumens, a 25-meter beam distance, 152 candela peak beam intensity, and 1 hour 30 minutes of runtime. Adjustable spot-to-flood focus, LED Heat-Sink Technology, basic power management, aluminum construction, and IPX7 waterproof protection provide practical performance in an exceptionally compact package.

1. Beam and Runtime Capabilities

The Blue Spectrum Solitaire® LED produces 14 lumens of blue light, with an ANSI/PLATO FL 1 beam distance of 25 meters (approximately 82 feet) and 152 candela peak beam intensity. Rather than being designed simply to maximize white-light brightness, its blue output serves specialized viewing and inspection applications.

The blue spectrum is particularly useful for reading maps and charts in low-light or no-light environments because it provides detail without washing out symbols, notes, or elevation markers. The flashlight delivers approximately 1 hour 30 minutes of runtime at its primary output.

2. Technology and Features in the Head of the Flashlight

The flashlight uses a specialized Blue Spectrum LED light engine rather than a conventional white LED. The blue wavelength provides task-specific illumination for pilots, field personnel, hunters, forensic personnel, crime-scene technicians, inspectors, and other users who can benefit from blue light.

The LED system incorporates LED Heat-Sink Technology to help manage heat produced by the LED and support dependable operation within the flashlight's compact aluminum body. Basic power management regulates available battery power during operation.

The head also provides Maglite®'s spot-to-flood adjustable focus. Rotating the head changes the beam from a tighter spot for directing light at a specific area to a broader flood for closer and wider-area illumination.

MINI MAGLITE AAA:

The Maglite® Blue Spectrum Mini Maglite® AAA LED Flashlight is a compact, three-AAA specialty flashlight built around a dedicated blue Spectrum LED. The blue beam is intended for applications where preserving detail and contrast under specialized low-light conditions is important. According to the supplied Spectrum Series material, blue is the preferred light source for pilots and map reading in low- or no-light environments, because it provides strong detail without washing out symbols, notes, or elevation markings. The supplied material also identifies applications including blood tracking for hunters and use by forensic and crime-scene personnel to detect bodily fluids.

The flashlight delivers 31 lumens, a 54-meter beam distance, 731 candela peak beam intensity, and approximately 2 hours 30 minutes of runtime. Its adjustable spot-to-flood beam, hands-free Candle Mode, compact aluminum construction, IPX7 waterproof protection, and 2-meter drop resistance make it a specialized but highly portable illumination tool.

1. Beam and Runtime Capabilities

The Blue Spectrum Mini Maglite® AAA LED produces 31 lumens of blue light. Under the supplied ANSI/PLATO FL 1 specifications, the beam reaches 54 meters (approximately 177 feet) and produces 731 candela of peak beam intensity.

The flashlight uses a single primary Full Power output rather than separate High and Low brightness settings. At its 31-lumen output, the supplied runtime is approximately 2 hours 30 minutes.
