18 volt skil light mod?

[codykrr]

Hi, first post but been a browser for a while.

I was given a Skil 18v drill and light combo last year for Xmas. the light works great as is, just isnt very bright at all.

it looks like this, but mine does say lithium ion on the batter pack(assume it isnt)

I would like to make it brighter. it uses an 18v .6a bulb as is right now.

I would be interested in either a simple led mod, or just a better bulb. I use this light a lot, especially while tracking deer(bowhunter). I searched on here, and didnt come up with anything, also google isnt bringing up anything either.

I appreciate yall helping me out.

sorry I meant it "doesnt say lithium ion" on the battery pack.

I have made a Makita 18v work light with ~11w xenon original bulb now 40w LED and the difference is amazing. Feel free to check it out!
