Maglite LED Conversion

But things have recently changed as a result of a Maglite LED conversion kit now being made available. As a result one is able to replace the original incandescent tungsten bulb that is standard in a Maglite for and LED one.
What this actually means to you who own a Maglite is that the batteries used to power these functional but stylish flashlights last considerably longer.

Previously when it came to getting Maglite LED conversion kit you would have to opt for those provided by third parties. The problem was that in many cases these would actually void the Maglite’s lifetime warranty. However, now Maglite themselves have simplified things and introduced their own conversion kit.
