Both takes AA batteries.
What makes one better than another (besides the name)?

Quality, feel, reliablity. You get what you pay for. I have a surefire M2; now compare that to a no name flashlight to walmart, and you would see/feel a significant difference.

The Surefire M2 enthusiast flashlight that will get 20 minutes runtime on expensive virtually proprietary batteries. It's not practical unless you only need light for short periods..

Um, buying one supports American workers, and buying the other rewards communist dictatorship slave-labor.
I assume you're saying Maglight is the American workers?Originally posted by: Nyati13

LED's are not dimmable...Originally posted by: mercanucaribe
How long does a Mag 3W run on 2 AAs? They should make these things with dimmers. I put a rheostat on my Dorcy 1W 3D to dim it, but it didn't work 90% of the time. There was a short I couldn't find.
Edit: Can't find a single review of the Maglite 3W AA. Does it even exist??

Review for the Mini Mag
I've had my fair share of LED Flashlights. X5, X03. Coast Tac Torch, Upgraded Mini Mag (Niteize upgrade), 3cell D Mag (upgraded with Mag LED).
I like the Coast Tac Torch the best because it has a bright concentrated beam, it's compact, and uses 3 AAA batteries. It was expensive at first but the ability to use AAA batteries makes it worth while. Coast LL7736
I do like the 3 cell D mag LED upgrade too. It works great outdoors and at a far distance.

"DC-DC boost circuit to get much better runtime"
hm.. is that the reason why LED flashlights maintain constant light output as the batteries fade?
Is that ALL led flashlights? (like the ONE inmy OP?)
or is mine like a standard flashlight that fades as the batteries grow weaker?
