Hello all,
Rather new to LED lights, and never really investigated them seriously until now. I initially was looking for something along the lines of a really small and bright light. I've pretty much decided to go with the ARC AAA (unless someone can supply a reason otherwise).
My intial goal was to get something to replace my D battery Maglite. After researching, I've learned that people modify these lights to accept LEDs. I thought I'd write for advice on this. As I am not a serious LED person, I'd much rather just buy a unit I could screw into my Maglite, and use. So far, I've just seen these guys:

Has anyone used their "3D" replacement? If so, what do you think about it? Is it a lot brighter? One thing that looks strange, is there is no reflective cone in the head, and it makes it look like it wouldn't put out a good "beam" of light. Also... is this a bit pricey? $125?
If anyone knows of any other people selling things for the Mag 3D, I'd like any advice... thanks..

P.S. I'm most likely going to order online, unless someone knows of a place to buy these things (ARC AAA, Mag replacement) in Austin TX.
