- Here I show you how to upgrade and convert your Maglite to LED for superior performance and efficiency. This is a must "How To" if you own a Maglite!
I'm upgrading using a 3 Watt 180 Lumen Cree bulb and the difference in output at the end is outstanding!

I’ve also done this upgrade about five years ago, and still impressed with it now in 2023
The light that these 3 watt LED upgrades produce is unbelievable!
I have converted all of my flashlights.
If only they had been available when I was in law enforcement and EMS.
Fantastic job brother. You even took the time to show the huge difference in brightness. You've convinced me to at least upgrade to a 180 Lumen for now until I can afford the 2000 Lumen upgrade!
Very good effort for your first RUclips video. Never be scared to shorten parts that are running a bit long. I'm advising as a film editor
Cheers David
A BIG thank you for this video! It was exactly what I searched for and your video fitted ALL the slots. Thanks for the Vaseline tip also! Perfect.
Another great upgrade is to use a Cady that will hold regular AA batteries....say like energizer lithium....guaranteed not to leak.....are lighter and are easier to find.....or just use regular eneloops that you can recharge.....
Good upgrade just upgraded my maglite 4 d cell very very good , if you have a mag just update it to led well worth it you can buy it on eBay are amazon
Delightful British accent! Love it!
Great video. Clear, concise & informative. Well done, as I would not have thought of lubricating the threads or O-rings for some reason, but that makes perfect, logical sense. Just wanted to say thank you.
Thank you for this video! Couldn't have done it better myself!
Nice tip to use vaseline on the O-rings! I admit it! I've forgotten all the sealing, for many years!
Thank you!
Nice... Ive also done this upgrade and it works a treat.
5:30 to see the comparison
Nice detailed video. I am wanting to upgrade my own 4 d. Thank you.
I know that LED's are practically better in every way. But for some reason, I still prefer the incandescent lamps.
I used to have a bicycle light called Night Sun. It was awesome. It was an incandescent light from the early 90s. It broke a few years ago so I replaced it with a super bright led light. I enjoy the newer brightness but at times the newer light is so bright it washes out the details in things. (ruts and other obstacles). I've learned to ride with it on lower settings. I'm happy but miss the older yellow light!
Dan Coulson i know im a bit late to the party but they also made warm white led conversion bulb now

Vaseline can degrade rubber. manufacturers recommend silicone grease
+viciousKev - I wasn't aware of this when I made my video, thanks for the info!
+TheLastPost Vasaline is fine on maglite. The rings are not rubber so are not affected. Maglite recommend vasaline/petroleum jelly.
Excellent video. Well done and informative. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, your video was nice and got straight to the point and influenced me to buy my own too! Thank you
Hey thanks! It certainly gives new life to a Maglite

What's the rating on the original bulb? I just bought a Makita DML185 and wondering if it's worth upgrading the bulbs. They don't seem to be very powerful.
Hi, I just looked at the original bulb and unfortunately there isn’t any markings on it. I think typically any filament bulb will be out performed by most modern LEDs
Good
my spare one is incandescent
Hi how can we order this bulb ? I live in greece
+kostas skoulikaris Hi, it was just bought from eBay - I don't actually sell these. Maybe there's a seller who can ship to Greece?
There is a brand called DORCY and makes Led bulbs like yours but the led is a clear water 8mm.
there are nowadays much stronger led replacements than this in this video. The video is from 2014. I got a 220 Lumen Upgrade.
Obrigado pelo vídeo, bastante explicativo !
Porquê ele usou a vaselina?
Eu kero conpra um ledio desdi
This is a torture, 6 minutes to see a led turned on
You made changing a flash light bulb last 6 min long. Lame.
are those bulbs fit flash that use PR2 xenon bulbs?
The bulbs I replaced and relocated in the tail cap are just the original incandescent bulbs, similar to krypton/xenon bulbs. These new type Cree bulbs are LED based rather than a filament and are much more efficient
What brand are theses
Essi ledi em contra nu mercadolivre
how can i buy new one
Hi, this video was made some time ago so that particular part number I used might not be on eBay anymore (where I got mine from). However if you are looking to find something similar then just do a search for Cree bulbs for maglights! Hope that helps
