Product Description
The size of a small Tootsie Roll, the Maratac Peanut LED Lighter is small enough to easily conceal in a pocket, but bright enough for most everyday needs. This version features a knurled body and head for a better grip, buttery smooth travel threads, and most importantly, a brand-new LED and orange peel reflector for better visibility Read More
tomtI have the DQG Spy and Fairy, and I recently just received the Maratac featured here. The Maratac is slightly longer than both, but comes with the charger as a standard. I like the extra heft of the stainless steel over the titanium Spy, and the only thing missing on the Maratac is a hole to install a trit tube (not my cup of tea anyway). Another difference is that the Maratac beam is more throwy and less floody than either DQG light -- it's still really floody though. Lastly, I consider this superior to similar TechMech offerings, since the charger is a disjoint piece, making the actual flashlight head smaller (though I am a fan of TechMech too, I just like the Maratac more). The only thing I would change if I could, would be to have an option for a firefly mode + low mode, rather than the medium + high that's currently shipped. Though I realize I am probably a small minority in wanting that configuration, I still think the lower combo would be great given the diminutive capacity of a 10180 battery.
Great light but........ if you carry it on your key chain.... from bumping around the the head eventually starts to unscrew downwards and falls off losing it somewhere in the street.
Mine fell off a week ago.
I own the stainless one and I owned the copper one until the head unscrewed and fell off.
The only way to have good retention of the head on the threads is to find/use a thick thread lubricant.
Great lights though, good milling unlike Jet Beam.
The light is cheaper on CountyComm's web site if you leave it in the cart for 24-72 hours you get a 10% off code and additionally you can use your points accrued from previous purchases.
I still have the stainless one which is on the spare key chain, .... I carried the copper one daily.
Can't tighten these down too much or the light comes on, can't keep them too loose either.
I used Jet Beams 'silicone grease' on the copper one which unfortunately may be good on a standard size light but too thin on these type of little lights/threads.
I really liked the copper one, won't purchase another.
rossoneriYeah I know right? I just signed up and I don't think I will ever buy an item on MD. Will probably just unsubscribe because there are better deals elsewhere. This site is a waste of my time.
$39.95 shipped CONUS from CountyComm vs $42.74 shipped on MD
Using a shipping forwarder, I can get this shipped to another country for a total of ~$44 vs ~$77 on MD.
@kenny@mr.arielgreen Could someone please explain to me how this is a drop? O__o
