I still have my 5D cell from my security days, I also have a 2D cell, a 2AA cell in my daypack, a AAA cell in the saddle bags of the bike and another AAA cell in my camera bag. All Maglite's of the older variety. Yes I know there are better torches out there now, but until one needs to be replaced, I think I have enough for now.
