I was wondering if there is anyway you can turn a 4 cell maglite into a powerful Led? Arnt there any mods or dropins or something like that. Or i have no idea wat im talking about. That would be cool and if it was possible because i guess it would be powerful.

TerraLUX TLE-300 Worlds Brightest upgrade! For 4-6 D Cell MagLites.
The TerraLUX TLE-300 is the worlds brightest upgrade for D cell Maglites. Outputting up to 600 lumens at the emitter the TerraLUX TLE-300 is sure to please. While the TerraLUX TLE-300 is built for 4-6 D cell Maglites advanced users understand that it really needs 6V (Operating Voltage: Up to 24 VDC) so there's any number of creative ways to power it in a 2 or 3 cell light. Maglites with the TLE-300 cannot be focused anymoe - but with 5-600 lumens you won't need to focus it anymore.
The TerraLUX TLE-300 is the first light product on that market that uses the Luxeon K2 with TFFC 'flip chip' which deliver industry leading light output, simpler and more efficient thermal management, and the ability to be driven at higher currents for longer periods of time than any other LED. Binned and tested at 1A, and with minimum flux bins of 200 lumens, LUXEON K2 with TFFC LEDs are enabling never before possible lighting solutions.

Do you work for them or something? The TLE-300 is also not the brightest. Not by a longshot.

Definitely don't work for them - it's from LH's site. The Malkoff is nice, but it's 2.5x the cost of the Terralux.

The monsterthrow 4 puts out over 800 lumens.

What's your price range, and what size MagLite are you wanting to upgrade?
There are good bang-for-the-buck options from $15-75

Depends on the kind you get.

M@g sells their own LED replacement bulb.
Remove the the top, unscrew the lamp holder, remove the incandescent lamp.
Drop in the LED, screw in the lamp holder, put top back on.
It doesn't get much easier than that, and you could probably do it while holding your breath.
Available wherever M@g's are sold for under $30.

This one is about 3-4x brighter than the stock Mag LED upgrade.
