Maglite LED Transformation - 1 Quick Change To Enhance Your Old Maglite
If you have any old MAGLITE's lying around, what I would suggest to do is convert them to an LED, by means of a Maglite LED conversion kit. Mentioned below is a very simple way of doing your own LED Conversions right at home.
It is very simple to upgrade your old Maglite to LED, all you in fact have to do is replace the halogen bulb by a MAG-LED module.
Pretty simple isn't it?
It really is, the sole thing you really should take care is to verify you got the exact module.
The main upgrade kits are usually for C or D size flashlights, which are available in 2 cell, 3 cell, or 4 cell length.
The simplicity of this upgrade has something to do with the old halogen bulbs being similar in measurement to the LED units. Thus making it a perfect fit.
A crucial thing to keep in mind is that you must check that you do not get the incorrect conversion kit. Each cell size has a different kit to fit with it, if you get the wrong one you are going to overdrive, or probable undersink the LED. This will ruin your Maglite, and we all know you don't wish to do that.
The advantages to doing this change, is double:
- Firstly, you will get a more sturdy MAG, as the LED is very well built, and will not shatter on an impact.
- And the next is, the battery lifetime of your newly upgraded mag will be 2 - 6 times extended, so, you will need to buy less batteries, or recharge them less frequently, all in all, that is a very good thing - More time to use it.
So as you can make out, there is nothing really hindering you from converting using a maglite LED conversion kit, it's easy, it's useful ( as long as you follow the proper instructions), and it makes for a much better Maglite, that is going to last you for more time than your previous one would.
