Upgrade LED Bulb White 3W DC 4-12V LED Flashlight Bulb Replacement Part Compatible for MagLite Flashlights Torch 3-6 Cell C&D

Great replacement bulb. Extremely bright for something so small

Had a broken bulb in my three D battery Maglite. You know, those big long black ones that emergency personnel use. Went to buy another one, saw how expensive they were, and thought I would try something else. So glad I did. These LED bulbs work phenomenally. Way brighter than the original, cheaper to purchase, uses less energy, and probably is more durable. It’s literally better in every way. Won’t go back to the old bulbs. These rock!

The amount of light emitted fom the LED is very much brignter that any from a standard filament bulb could be. The only problem is that these LED units are relativly uni-directional and because of their necessary placement in the flashlight, no light from the lamp (bulb) reaches the polished reflector, so that limits the total amount of light emitted from the unit. compared to any filament units. Other than that, since the LED uses only a fraction of the power that a filament lamp (bulb) might use, is can be expected that the life of the batteries in the flashlight will be significantly extended, whcih in itself could be a good reason why to purchase on the these units, the life span of which are very much longer than anything preiously available. This is why I purchased this unit and I am very satisfied with it.

No, this isn't as bright as some of the "tactual" LED flashlights that are sold, but it has resurrected my favorite old Maglight. Some have complained about the "halo" or doughnut effect of the light and when I try to spread the light that does happen... so I just don't try to go wide beam. I can't speak to longevity or energy consumption as I have only used the bulb for a couple of days, but as for the light it puts out, it is a great improvement. The standard bulb sends out a pale yellow light that could reach a large tree about 60' behind our house, but you couldn't make out much detail. The "LudoPam High Power LED Upgrade Bulb 3W DC 4-12V" in my 3 cell Maglight sends out a white light that not only shows the tree in great detail, but also can illuminate the little meadow and even reach the top of the 100' tall tree. This helps me see if there are any predators around before I turn my Chihuahua loose to do her business.

Prompt arrival, well packaged, and perfect for my flashlight!

Replaced the incandescent bulb in my 3-D cell Maglite. Result transformed it from dim yellow to bright white light. Very happy

Ordered 2. Beautifully made. Neither one worked in either of two flashlights. I could not believe it and tried to modify contacts so there was no question about the bulb fit. Because they did not work still, I wondered if there was a polarity problem (diodes, by design, let current flow in only one direction). I finally connected them to wires connected to the battery pack and checked current in both directions. I cannot explain what happened, but they both worked with reversed polarity. One flashlight permitted reversing the batteries with good contacts, and the other only questionable contacts. The one with reversed batteries (putting the + at the - end where marked in the flashlight), works great now. It is a great bulb with intense light output. The other one, with questionable contacts, did not work, even when I tried to stuff a wire between the contact and the battery pole. I then reversed the batteries back to the way they were intended to be placed, and the light bulb worked perfectly. It produces great light that is well focused. I cannot explain this phenomenon. Clearly diodes, unlike filament lights, are very polarity-dependent, but this outcome suggests that there may be some breakdown in the farication or testing process (quality control) allowing them to leave the plant in this condition. If they work great right out of the box they should be 5 stars. If you have to do as I did and possibly not have the same happy ending, they may be worth 1 star. It is unfortunately a toss-up at this point.

We have an Ikelite Mini C Lite (4 C cells) which was missing a bulb. Until I started researching dive lights, I didn't know that they typically run hot and rely on being submerged to cool them. This LED bulb fit great but I had to reverse the battery polarity. Althought the bulb is brilliantly white when you look directly at it; the flashlight in use has a distinctly yellow cast. Overall, this is a great upgrade and I expect the bulb to last virtually forever not to mention extending battery life. Worth noting that the first bulb I received was DOA.

This is just a super product made an unbelievable difference to my Maglite. My thirty year old Maglite in recent times has been pushed back by my Led Lenser and Varta torches. Live on a rural property in Queensland so good light is important. Put this upgrade bulb into my six cell Maglite and wow its a different torch. Good white light and throwing an easy 75 meters plus. I really like my big Maglite and now for just a few dollars its better than new. Have another six cell so will get bulb for that plus back ups. On the Amazon site Ludo Pam have an even stronger bulb so will try that next order. Bulb came nicely packed in foam in a small cardboard box. Fit was perfect.

buen reemplazo para el foco de la lámpara, pero sería mejor que su luz fuera más blanca

This works really well. I’ve owned a 3 battery D cell Mag Light for about 10 years. I don’t use it that much anymore as I’ve transitioned to smaller rechargeable flashlights the past few years. I was aware of these LED bulb replacements for a while and I decided to replace the original bulb in my Mag Light. I’m very happy with the results, the light is much stronger and I can tell right away that the LED draws much less power extending the life of my batteries. The Mag Light will never be my first choice anymore when I’m out in the field but I’m happy to say that it will get many more decades of service living in my toolbox in the garage.

たいへんまんぞくしています

Great product and works well. Exactly as described.
