Senior moment time. I recieved a couple of LED PR2 bulbs from a vendor (LAMBDA, I think) on CPF a while back and can't remember if they are 3 to 4,5 volt only or would handle 6v (4 AA's) only. I would like to try it in an old 4 AA Tekna light I have. Any help would be appricated.

If they are the PR based SMJLEDs, I think they are all limited to 2 cells only, i.e. only 3 volts. You can always rewire the 4AA to be 2 series/2 parallel. That's what I did for a Dorcy 4D lantern that I wanted to retrofit with a 2 cell PR based SMJLED bulb.
