UpLED Maglite LED Conversion Upgrade 630 Lumen 4.5 watt Bulb for 3 to 6 D or C Cell Flashlights

This is the one you are looking for! It can be an epic quest attempting to find an led upgrade for your old incandescent maglite that meets two important criteria: 1) drastically brighter, to help validate the flashlights size and 2) doesn’t cost a fortune! Seriously there are led upgrades here on Amazon for maglites that cost $70-$130! That’s double the price of buying a new led maglite!This bulb matches both of those criteria perfectly.I’ve included to photos that show this thing off, in both this 4.5 watt bulb is the beam on the left. In one photo I’ve compared it to a generic 3 watt led bulb I got from an auction site, in the other photo I’ve got it next to my old incandescent maglite, which will be getting upgraded to this bulb soon based on its performance.Pros:Bright pure white light, not bluish like some others, and not yellowish like my generic led upgrade.Extremely bright, I’ve no way to test if it’s really 630 lumens as stated, but I can say it litterally DROWNS out my 3 watt generic led bulb thing is rated at 300 lumens.Budget friendly priceCons: believe it or not, I don’t really have any except that battery life on this based on draw isn’t much better than incandescent. Expect about 6 hours off a set of 3 d cell batteries, but if you have a 4-6 cell maglite battery life will go up probably a couple hours each additional cell.All in all this is a great upgrade to bring and old friend back into service. Recommended!Ninja Edit: this bulb will not work in 2 cell maglites! Only 3-6 cell mags. I tried it in a 2 d cell maglite and it barely came on at all, even with fresh cells.

I ordered one of these for my 2 "D" Call Maglite. It installed in less than a minute - and it was significantly brighter than the original "Krypton" bulb. While I can't speak to battery life - I fully expect the battery life will more than double. A very worthwhile upgrade. Only negative is that I compared the upgraded Maglite to a new LED Flashlight that I just bought from a Major Big Box Retailer - that was designed from the ground up as an LED flashlight. This new flashlight was was a bit cheaper than this upgrade, and the new "designed from scratch with an LED Bulb" flashlight was brighter (but not focusable). But - I was kind of expecting that was going to be the caseI will say that I think the LED conversion bulbs work "better" on the 3 Cell and up lights than they do on the 2 Cell lights. I believe that has to do with the LED driver circuitry. If you look at the new LED Maglights - the 3 cell (and higher) models seem to have higher output (more lumens) AND significantly better battery lie than the 2 cell models.Let's just say that I ordered a few more of these LED conversion bulbs for a few other Maglites I have laying around.

Given: you have a 2D cell Maglite that is using an old incandescent bulb and you would like to keep the flashlight but it's lumens are pretty lame. This is clearly a step up. Much, much brighter. It has a middle dark spot if you adjust the flashlight to wide mode, but the narrow beam is solid. I have not found anything better. I'll still grab the Maglite.

Product works as promised. Bulb was easy to install.

I used this LED on a 6 cell Incandescent Maglight. It is super Bright. Installed by just replacing and it still has flood and spot. Very happy! faster shipping than what amazon posted. This is the bulb for your Maglite.

This thing is crazy bright.A wee bit expensive tho'.We'll see how long it lasts.

Seems like 5 to 10 times brighter. Easy 1,000 foot beam. Super fast ship, ordered evening August 10, 2019, arrived August 16, from Ireland, so a 5 day ship, WOW. I hemmed and hawed for almost 2 months before going for the LED upgrade. Should have done sooner. I had two old perfectly fine 2 C cell Maglight flashlights and when I saw these upgrade LED 'bulbs' thought OK maybe, maybe not. Somewhat pricey but moving forward on the tech curve turned out to be well worth it. BE SURE to buy the GLASS replacement lens as well, as these let much more light through than the original plastic lens. KEEP the plastic lens in case you break the glass lens. I am going to figure out some sort of plastic lens cap cover to protect the front of the flashlight. Maybe some plastic lid off some container.

Got this today and installed-super easy. It DEFINITELY increased the brightness of the Mag Lite. I suspect it will increase the battery life as well. Didn't quite earn 5 stars in my opinion, but would definitely buy again. Note: This does come from UK so shipping takes several extra days.
