Mag-Lite flashlight LED conversion

I have two 2D cell Mag-Lite flashlights that I want to upgrade to LED bulbs. Any recommendations for upgrade bulbs for these?

Look on Amazon.
I bought a bulb for the 4-D cell version.
It will probably cost you close to $20.00.

Pending the price you find for a bulb you may just consider getting a different flashlight. I bought the below linked for my Dad, Father-in-law and myself this Christmas. It is basically hand held daylight at <$20. If you do fins a good bulb please link it though.

I have gotten a number of cheap LED flashlights in recent years and they all have problems with battery contacts and switches. I will probably try the one from Amazon linked to above, but I have the two mag-lite's and they always work. I figure the more working ones I have, the better the odds I have of finding one when I need it. I will probably try the bulb from superbrightleds.

As a mechanic I use flashlights all the time I recently purchased a Coast flashlight from my Snap On tool dealer . At 16 bucks it was the cheapest thing I have purchased from them in a while . It has proven rugged and reliable , maybe even more so than the mag lights ! They are brighter and smaller also using 2 AA batteries.

I bought a bunch of Ray O Vac LED conversion bulbs at Walmart in the sporting goods section for $3.47 each in 2, 3 and 4 cell versions. Converted all my flashlights. Great value. Here's a link to see what they look like. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Rayovac-3VLED-1T-Rayovac-3V-LED-Replacement-Bulb-2-Cell/22086116

That's more in line with what the prices should be. Great fine.

Got it, love it

+1 Converted all our flashlights two years ago. Brighter. Longer lasting bulbs and batteries.
