The Magled modules are bigger than a regular PR bulb. Please post any success in using these modules in another light, preferably a transplant that required no modification, or minimal modification.

Re: Magled in other lights?

I stuck one in one of those crook-neck military flashlights - popped in and runs just fine. It runs on two Ds.

PS: I mean a U.S. military flashlight, Vietnam era type thing.

We should really start a thread where people have found successful hosts for the MagLED module. (Preferably without alot of retrofitting.)

Similar to the SMJLED thread.

Ok, how about this one? I'll rename it a bit.

I'd suggest another thread before giving any thought to a sticky. There's been 9 postings to this thread already, and this is the 10th and there is still no content in the thread. Can't see why you would want to make it a sticky.

The Value Bright line from RayOVac was mentioned as a low cost 2 cell host at http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=130017

While it's not likely that there are many of these around, the Mag LED modules will fit into the PR bulb holders of the Streamlight alkaline lights (like a Mag, long discontinued.)
