they've got good optics, but their emitters and drivers are so-so.  They're
on the same level as the five buck things hanging on pegs next to cash
registers.  It'd be nice if MAG could get their act together and build a
decent LED flashlight, but I'm not holding my breath.

I don't think there's a 5D version of the LED flashlight, just of 2 and
three cell versions, and the 2AA one.
