MAGLITE® 10-Year Limited Warranty & Environmental Committment

MAGLITE® 10-Year Limited Warranty & Environmental Commitment

10-Year Limited Warranty

Mag Instrument, Inc. warrants to the original owner that this flashlight is free from defects in parts and workmanship for ten years from the date of first retail purchase.  Mag or an authorized Mag Warranty Service Center will, free of charge, repair or, at its option, replace a defective flashlight or component. (Mag does not warrant the future availability of particular colors or decorations, and may replace a custom flashlight with a standard flashlight.)  This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied.

EXCLUSIONS: This warranty does not cover any of the following: 1. Battery exhaustion; 2. Battery leakage; 3. LED burnout and/or LED module failure; or 4. Damage to or failure of the flashlight or any component thereof due to alteration, misuse, battery leakage or lack of maintenance.

Mag Disclaims any responsibility for incidental or consequential damages. Some jurisdictions (countries, provinces, and states) do not allow exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, incidental or consequential damages and/or limitations on transferability, so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.

HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE A WARRANTY CLAIM: 1. In case of battery exhaustion, do not return the flashlight to Mag, but replace the batteries. 2. If the flashlight has been damaged by leakage of batteries, do not return the flashlight to Mag, but determine what brand of battery caused the damage and follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions about how to make a damage claim. 3. For warranty returns: Please first email info@maglite.eu and a team member will be in touch with you as soon as possible.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights which vary from country to country, province to province, and state to state. Where any term of this warranty is prohibited by the law of any jurisdiction, such term shall there be null and void, but the remainder of this warranty shall remain in full force and effect. THESE STATEMENTS DO NOT AFFECT THE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER.

Commitment to the Environment, Quality, and Our Mission

  • WE ACT RESPONSIBLY because we manufacture our products in the State of California, United States of America, where some of the world’s strictest and most highly regulated environmental standards and laws are in effect.
  • We recycle our aluminum scrap to ensure that byproducts generated daily through our machining processes are recovered.
  • We reclaim and reuse our oils and lubricants used by the machinery that manufactures our products.
  • We recycle used paper products and corrugated cardboard scrap daily.
  • We have optimized our production schedules to coincide with off-peak demand on the electrical grid, helping to reduce our carbon footprint.
  • Our rigorous quality assurance program has maintained a historical defect rate of less than 0.1%. This means our products are built to provide decades of sustainable use rather than ending up in landfills.
  • We use automated environmental and lighting controls to optimize energy use and minimize waste.
  • Mag® automation also helps ensure strict quality assurance and product safety.
  • Mag®’s commitment to leadership in lighting technology has required substantial investments over the past 40 years in research and development, facilities and equipment, as well as extensive employee training.
  • Mag® has also deliberately directed its R&D and product development toward smaller, more compact lighting instruments that require significantly less material than older, larger lights. This is comparable to the automobile industry’s transition in the 1970s toward smaller, more fuel-efficient passenger vehicles.
  • As another example of our commitment to the environment, Mag® has made significant investments in reusable material-handling containers throughout its manufacturing processes, along with other environmentally responsible practices.
  • Mag® operates a zero-discharge facility, meaning none of its waste streams are discharged into municipal sewer systems or pipelines.
Our USA-manufactured products are designed and engineered to remain in use for decades. This reduces the need for replacement products and helps decrease the amount of waste sent to landfills.

MAGLITE® products are designed to provide users with maximum useful life, which means fewer batteries are required under normal use. This emphasis on extended service life helps keep batteries out of landfills.

For our products, we use recyclable aircraft-grade aluminum.

We have developed a range of rechargeable flashlights that benefit the environment by reducing the use of disposable alkaline batteries and, consequently, reducing waste.

Above all, we continually improve our products. It is the policy of Mag Instrument, Inc. to vigorously enforce its patent, trademark, and other intellectual property rights relating to its products in the United States and internationally.

Mag Instrument, Inc. is one of the few manufacturers to offer a 10-year limited warranty on its flashlights worldwide.
