2-D MagLite Mods

[Phaetos]

Seeing as how WallyWorld is selling these things off like crazy, and I can't seem to leave anything alone. What mods exist for a first time modder? I figure at $8 a pop, I can afford to mess up a few

Man that's an incredible price.

wtf what walmarts are selling them for 8 bucks? Thats my favorite mag.

I think they have to be on clearance hardcore. Too bad they don't even have them here anymore.

I just went out to walmart right now and bought myself a Maglite, 2D Cell also, sadly they were still at 16.50 but I didn't really care. I just wanted a ican because all my lights are LED, I compared it to my Fenix P3D, and what can I say, the Fenix killed it. But I'm still happy with the mag, gives me something to play around with and not have to worry about dropping it or tossing it around.

I need a heatsink to fit in a Mag 2D that will take 3 Cree's on stars. Any ideas?

Thanks KrisP for the links. This looks like the heatsink for me but I've got 20mm Carclo optics and I'm not sure they'll work....

I have had very good luck with these CREE Optics:
(10 pcs) 0.75" CREE XR-E Optical Lens Reflector Kit $9.99 including shipping.

These are the very same CREE optics I have gotten previously from CUTTER and LEDLIGHTINGSUPPLY.

Edit: just remembered these required trimming the optic holder to fit three in a Mag head...

MrLight, would these work with the PTS-2 D and be suitable for a bike light?
