Yes, I somehow got two of the maglites in the mail also. They are pretty nice lights especially for emergencys or when you are walking down the street at night and need a little weapon to defend yourself.

SAS is a data wherehousing software (i used to work with it). They had a survey about 2 months ago where you could sign up to get a free mag flashlight.

I tried to follow the old link, but alas the deal seems to be removed from their page.

Mine came today too via UPS. I wonder if they send them out in bunches.... Wonder if they actually got any business out of this deal, or whether they just gave out a bunch of flashlights...
Can never have too many maglights :-)

mine was in the mail yesterday too. I tossed it into the 'earthquake emergency trunk' to replace the other maglight that got messed up when the batteries corroded. warning to all - if you're not going to use it right away, don't put the batteries in! the nice thing about the SAS case is that the batteries can be stored with the flashlight. thanks to whoever shared the deal way back when.

Mine arrived at my work address at the beginning of May, but because goods in is so screwed up here, I didn't get it until a couple of weeks ago.

As advertised, it's an AA Mini Maglite, with SAS' logo laser-etched (or something) into the head.

Sweet. http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/smile.gif

Got mine too. Comes in a black case with the light and 2 Energizer batteries in it. Damn nice freebie. http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/smile.gif

Oh... and my case says "Mini MagLite" on it. Not the SAS logo. The flashlite itself DOES have the logo.

Did everyone get blue?

Mine just came in the mail yesterday, I had forgotten about it for a while, so I was pleasantly surprised. I did it about a month ago, so I figure that is about the timeframe.

Some deals require you to respond to an e-mail they send you. Are you sending them Bogus e-mail addresses?

I received 9 of these suckers. I feel bad, but I did nothing intention to get so many! I only signed up once! I got 6 on one day, 2 on another and 1 last night! What the hell is going on, right? (not that I am complaining, they really seem like quality flashlights).

OK, this is depressing me. I'm probably like the only one on here who ever used SAS and I didn't get anything. My boss signed up as well as he bought over $1.4K of SAS software before and got nothing.

Got mine too. But I have this bad feeling in my gut that SAS will get us for this. It may be my pessimism at play here or could be just the bean burrito I had for lunch today at Taco Hell.

I just read that little sheet that came with the mag a few weeks ago, and noticed some cool unnoticed features - "Candle Mode", which you do by completely unscrewing the head, then putting the head down and sticking the body in it - then it stands up like a candle by itself! The other cool thing is that they give you a free extra lamp in the base, which'll be nice if the first one ever burns out.

I did this after the first set of people got their maglites. So I did it fairly late but still got it. Man.. don't you love it when you already assume it's not coming anymore.. and go on with you life.. and then BAM it's at your door....

as homer would say... what an age we live in

hehe
i think it is quite cool how they have extra lamp but the candle mode is way to bright. So what makes a Mag light a Mag light?

seeing that is soo bright is it Magnesim heating?

Finally got my maglite today. also got some Meguir's tire clean/shine product. That'll come in handy. That flashlight is a nice one, and free batteries with it, just like the laser pointer

Got mine last week. What I don't understand is why everyone's OBSESSED with MAG lights? I mean, they're only flashlights (granted it is a cool blue color). My cousin was all excited that he got his, I mean, if he loves em so much well..let's just say I know what i'm getting him for his next birthday http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/smile.gif ... I just tossed my maglight to my parents...
