LED conversion Kits for Maglite, Installation and Troubleshooting Guide

Your funny. I really enjoyed watching this

I’ve got a “6er” that I want to deck out. It’s been sitting in a closet with no batteries for about 10 years. I found it in the road one night after a late shift.

very informative. very nice video

Where the hell did you get that 500 D cell Maglite?😂

Anyone who’s here lurking for upgrade info on the old mag light upgrade is prob a flashlight fan or for nostalgic reasons. ❤this video.
U can prob sand blast the inside of the end cap contact surface while while saving outside anodize by masking tape off.

Do you offer a conversion kit that is meant for flood light applications

Forgot your o-rings homey

So- @lumencraft I'm testing the 3500 lumen upgrade on a 2d maglite with 6x tenergy premium pro AAs 2800mah in series delivering 7.2 volts and so far its running over an hour on the brightest setting and still going. im impressed.

Just to make sure I understand. I have a 6D cell Maglite. I bought a 2000 lumens bulb (but it's not one of yours).
If using Lithium batteries, I should use 1x26650 battery?

How can that be more actual burntime, compared to 6 D cell batteries?
Great video, thank you very much.

Broh! How did you get that crazy 100 D cell flashlight! 😂😂😂That's awesome. Anyway thanks for the video, I'm buying an led upgrade for my 5 D cell. Hopefully I can work it out.

I can’t find the 5000 lumens replacement up grade kit? Are you under a new website?

I wish there was a silicone slip-on grip for maglite. Idk maybe there is such a thing. But they get cold in the winter, and a better grip in the summer would be appreciated.

Hi mate

I got your 3500 lumens upgrade for the incandescent Maglite.

I'm in the UK so it took a while to deliver here but it was well worth the wait! I'm using it in a 6D Maglite but one day I want to use it in my 2D Maglite with the battery conversion. You shouldn't use it in the 2D Maglite with normal D batteries, correct?

By the way I couldn't find your 5000 lumen version. Is it no longer being manufactured? Not that 3500 is too dim haha

Hi and thank you for all these videos! I was wondering if any of these bulbs will fit my 2D maglite serial number starting with DL? Thank you. A

Take it 100% off? Darn, I was thinking 78%

You are a serious Master **** Thanks!

I think being above 1000 lumens is way over board that the maglite ml300l can throw up to 406 meters being 625 lumes and the warrior x turbo is 1000 lumes and it can throw up to 1000 meters and that the reflector is longer but 1000 lumens is to bright for close up things and it is all just for the bright light enthusiast because I tried a 700 lumen 3 c cell flashlight at night and it worked perfectly fine with enough light that I can see all around and I have the seeker 3 but I hardly use it because 4000 lumens makes to much heat and drain the battery way faster when a 1000 lumen or below flashlight can run cooler and longer like the maglite l300l on d batteries

Hello. What about using the lithium 1.5v or nimh d cell 1.2v ,6 of them for the 6d for the 3500 or the 5000 drop in. Wouldn’t that bypass the need for the sleeves and dummy d’s?

Will the firefly work in a older mag lite with regular batteries? 2 D- Cell

I want this

Excellent video- thank you man!!

Hey Matt, I have this 10 year old Mag Charger RE1019. Can’t seem to find anything about it online. Any ideas on which of those led upgrades fit my model?

Do D cells fit into Mag Charger? My cradle simply died so I cant recharge anymore, mine is halogen so I wonder if I could use Alkaline batteries

Love these videos- keep em coming! I have a 20+ yr old 2 cell C Mag, looking to upgrade the 30 lumen LED in there now to the 370 you recommended. I can only find the 325 in your links, which is fine but will I get the full 325? Can I use li-ion? I can't find an extension- kinda bummed!

Please someone help me out,
I have the older magcharger and i want to buy the 800 lumen led light.
Does someone recommend these or share experiences pls

012322/0303h PST 🇺🇸. Mat, good morning and thank you. As promised, you delivered the instructions on how to incorporate 800L emitter on type C MAGLITE. I was waiting for over 6 plus months for that design to come by. I am placing order for one 800Lm drop-in emitter for type C (21700 Li-Ion) and one 800Lm for 1D cell MAGLITE, that you modified, with 21700 li-Ion Cell. FYI 21700 works well with no noticeable loss in Lm.
Thanks and appreciate your educational video. Stay safe and good Lux. 73s…

Can I use a 2000 lumen upgrade with a 4d mag lite?

THEY ARE ALL THE "D" SIZE

HI THERE DEAR SIR'
I OWN 6 OLD MAG LIGHTS AND ONE RE CHARGE AND ONE 6 CELL D WHERE DO I FI ND THESES PARTS TO UP GRADE. MY BULBS TO THE MAX LUMENS PLEASE ADVISE

I'm about to purchase the 2000 lumens kit with a 4d cell maglite. Should I use 4 Tenergy batteries to get maximum performance?

Do you have an idea of what exactly would happen if you use 8D batteries in a 6D rated bulb ?
If I'm not using the light all the time for very long periods of time, could it really be that big of a problem ?
I'm fine not using this extension I've ordered, but I sure would love to have a cool extra long 8D maglite.

Thank you man !

Yep this is my deal right here. Can you set me up with a link to the 2 lithium batteries and the 5000 lumen light head? I'll need all the sleeves and dummy cells and whatnot for a 6D mag. You can email me.

Your very helpful man.thank you.

I think mines like 2009, that's not super old right?

So so many questions and comments but so few answers and replies !!!

I'm wondering can you convert the coast 1400 lumen flashlight into a 26 650 powered replacing the six AA batteries

got good old maglite 3 d cell, my father used it in yugoslavian war 91-99, im just wondering if i can put any kind of led bulb, or do i need to use bulb that is dedicated to maglite.

Nice, i have a 4D mag. What would i need to get it with 2 lithium and the 5K bulb set up? Plus, about how long will it last minutes wise?

Great info!!...thank u!

I just bought the 800 lumen Firefly and new glass lens. Wow, it's bright. It brought new life to my 35 year old 3D mag! I'll actually use this flashlight now!

What kinda output/performance can I expect from the 800 lumen firefly out of a 4D maglite using regular batteties v the rechargeable tenergy v the full lithium conversion?

I watched this twice, I still don’t know! I have 2D batteries Maglite, I would like to upgrade it to LED bulb, without all the attachments, just a bulb, what do I have to get? from where? I do not need all this thousands of lumens, WHAT BULB DO I NEED, PLEASE!

I love all your videos i hope you still continue to post old flashlight upgrade into LED.

Bought one of the 5000 lumen flashlights for my dad in silver. Looks and performance is awesome. It reminds me of the old lost in space show, combining the old and futuristic. Do the 26650 batteries work with the C cell Maglite?

Really informative videos Matt. I have a Maglite 2D LED and just want more output. I noticed that most of your products are for switching from incandescent to LED but what would you recommend (bulbs and batteries) for someone like me who already has LED? Thanks in advance.

Super helpful! I'm needing the recharge upgrade, any idea where a charger is for it? How about buying a new switch for my old model so I can have the modes? I got this light in the Navy back in 2007 and can't turn loose of it.

Maglite Is ovepriced dinosaur. There are tons of better flashlights on the market. Just a few, armytek, olight, jetbeam, solarforce, nitecore, Fenix, rovyvon, Wuben, Sofirn, Fireflies etc.
