Today Maglite have improved their range of torches by introducing a range that have LED bulbs fitted. However, if you are someone who currently owns a conventional Maglite but doesn’t want to spend money on replacing it with the newer models. Then this is the type to consider purchasing a Maglite LED conversion kit for yours.

However you need to be very wary when it comes to purchasing a conversion kit that allows you to change your conventional Maglite to an LED one. Unfortunately some of the kits on the market may be affordable but these ones could actually result in your torch warranty becoming void.

But when it comes to converting your Maglite from the conventional bulbs to LED ones there are certain third party kits worth considering using. Below we take a look at just what some of these are.

Kit 1 – Tektite

This particular kit is suitable for not just Solitaire Maglite’s but also those that contain “AA” or “Triple A” cells in them. All you have to do is replace the current bulb in your Maglite with the Nichia LED bulb that is provided with this kit.

Kit 2 – Terralux

This particular conversion kit contains 3 watt Luxeon LED bulbs in them and is suitable for those Maglite’s fitted with rechargeable batteries. It only takes a matter of seconds for you to replace the current bulbs with the new LED ones in this kit. However, be aware that this is a kit that can lead to the warranty on your torch becoming void should any problems arising after the bulb has been installed.

Also after fitting the bulb you find that the torch doesn’t light up after being turned on this is because the pins on the bulb are not in the correct position. Normally this problem can quickly be resolved by rotating the bulb through 180 degrees.

Kit 3 – Opalec

This particular kit has been devised for converting a Mini-Mag from having an incandescent bulb to one that has an LED bulb instead. In this kit there is an LED module along with a step up power supply. Along with 3 white LED’s and also comes with an LED indicator to inform you when the battery is low. Plus this kit also comprises an adapter sleeve and replacement lens that is scratch resistant.

The way to check if this particular Maglite LED conversion kit is suitable requires you to unscrew the flashlight head and then remove the bulb. Do this gently by pulling the bulb out with your fingers. If you find that after removing the bulb the black plastic piece has two holes next to the holes where the bulb was situated then the kit won’t work on it.
