TTS Maglite LED Upgrade for 3 to 6 D and C Cell Torch. Brightest Conversion Currently Available.

I have a 4-cell Maglite that is heavy and, compared to modern LED torches like the LED Lenser, it produces a dull amber beam, so was consigned to a shelf to gather dust.Then I saw this conversion, which if the reviews were accurate would give my much loved Maglite/Hammer/Nightstick a new purposeThe new bulb is like night and day compared with the old bulb. Literally. Like comparing a new car HID headlight with an old carriage lamp.As a born skeptic I first changed the batteries and cleaned the lens and reflector for a fair comparison, the old bulb did its thing and glowed happily. Fitting the new bulb is easy; a direct and perfect fit replacement for the original Mag incandescent bulb. It just works.I changed the bulb and WOW, I could now signal low flying aircraft if I so wished. It shines better, it glows much much brighter and whiter, the beam pattern and focus is clearly defined, and it shows the new generation of torches that it’s still the Daddy.Yes it is still big, and heavy, and will cause an injury if you drop it on someone (is that a benefit ?), and is not really something you want to carry in your bag every day. But as a thing of function, durability, and beauty, it now has a place in the home, not just as a paperweight. The design icon is back.Bonus. The Cree LED is super efficient as well as being super bright, so your batteries will last many times longer than with the original incandescent bulb.All in all, excellent value transformation of a much loved relic into something truly useable once again.The seller is an independent based in the UK, goods shipped quickly from UK stock. The bulb is packed in its own protective hard shipping case then packed securely in a shipping envelope, zero chance of damage in transit. Shipping is fast and efficient, a great experience overall.Recommended.

Brilliant replacement for the original filament bulb that cam with the mag torch, so much brighter, definitely worth the money.

Amazingly bright upgraded my 22 year old 3 cell maglight in 1 minute. THOUGH BEWARE DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE LIGHT AS IT WILL PARTIALLY BLIND YOU WITH THIS UPGRADE.

Not as good as I hoped but vastly better than the stock maglite bulb.Fitting this bulb has stopped me throwing away this maglite as it now have better brightness. But there are cree torches vastly brighter on the market.If you like the build quality of a maglite and style then great upgrade and well worth the upgrade. But be warned you do not get the brightness of a cheap alloy led cree torch seen elsewhere on amazon. If brightness is your main requirement then put the upgrade cost to buying a different torch which will out perform this upgrade massively in lumans.But I wanted to save my maglite so for me well worth the cost.If I want a brighter torch to take out then I will grab one of my other torches. But if I don't want to light up the tree tops then my upgrade maglite is good. After the upgrade you cannot look directly into the beam it is flash eye white dot eye time... lol

This quick and easy upgrade to my old 3 cell Maglite really is remarkable. The difference in brightness is staggering and compared to the original filament bulb is so much clearer. The bulb is a simple replacement - take the old bulb out and simply fit this one and away you go. The battery life should now also be greatly extended as the power consumption of the LED is far less than the filament and also the voltage tolerance is greater so the LED brightness will not fade as quickly as it would with the original bulb as the battery deteriorates.Maybe a little expensive but definitely an upgrade that is an immediate noticeable improvement.

I didn't know these Maglite Cree LED replacement bulbs were available until I looked at the Amazon site. They make such a big difference to the brightness of the any torch fitted with the older pre LED bulbs (Maglite torches are very well made quality items new models all have LED bulbs). I upgraded a 2xD battery torch and a 4xD battery torch and found changing the bulbs to be very easy and hade no problems (I removed the torch batteries for safety reasons). I used the opportunity whilst doing the bulb upgrades to apply a little silicon O-rings grease to the torch body screw threads and checked the condition of the batteries. The seller did a good job, the bulbs arrived in good condition and were delivered on time by Royal Mail.

Has put new life in the 3 cell torch. Very bright white light. Well worth the expense to upgrade. Fast delivery, well packaged and protected

About the same price as an official replacement bulb but a brighter, clearer light and potentially (?) better battery life, and it's a drop-in fit. Why buy the original?
