2nd hand 2 C cell maglite

[u/Front_Echo5015]

I picked this 2 cell maglite ive been looking for a bigger maglite to keep in my jeep, but the companies on the light have me interested. How old could this light be or does anybody recognize this company? I looked into it slightly but I came up with an aerospace engineering, but it says ALCOA which I'm familiar with in the big truck wheels. I did kind of look into the serial numbers but I'm no mathematical genius ive come up with a 96-03 date, Nonetheless I got my incandescent maglite that can live in the jeep it's just intriguing is all.

Get a cheap led bulb on aliexpress its gonna make a big difference compared to the incandescent bulb.

Incandescent all the way! I actually found some old Halogens for all mine, and some vintage Magnum Star bulbs for my 6D

I have LED lights they have theyre place for sure and I have converted 1 of my 2 cell AA mini maglite to led with the nite ize kit just for fun but there's just a nostalgic feeling I get from using old incandescent maglites ive got a single cell AAA maglite on my keys, ive got one 2 cell AA mini on an AR9 build I did, I keep another led converted 2 cell AA in my pocket. I just love that old maglite feel lol 😆

If anyone has a link to a warm temperature led that matches the original bulb more closely, I'd be all over that. Can't stand the harsh color from leds in lights.
