Just replaced the PR113 bulb on my old 4D lantern, so it's time to bring this thing into the 21st century. Surely there's an LED drop in with a PR-XXX body to fit a lantern in this day and age? Right?

First off, what's the polarity of the DC power applied to the bulb - center pin positive, or center pin negative?

I have the same problem with my single 6 volt spotlight, it will not work with a pr smjled, because the polarity to the bulb is neg. from the flashlight and cannot be changed. Are saying the Everled will work?

the "classic" and "lambertian" requires the base contact to be positive, however, the "Diamond"'s base contact is designed as negative.

EVERLED is designed to be used in 4D lanterns

its a bit expensive, but its awesome...I have used the classic version, i have yet to convert my 6V eveready lantern
Thanks, if I've anything left after Christmas I'll order one!
