How to Use a Mini Maglite

Mini Maglite flashlights are a smaller version of the popular Maglite flashlights. The Mini Maglite is a useful adjustable light. You can light up a large area by using the flood light setting or concentrate the light using the spotlight setting. In addition, you can use the Mini Maglite as a candle, which lights up an entire space or room, as opposed to the directional flood and spotlight settings. Does this Spark an idea?
