Well, Lighthound no long carries the SMJLED PR base bulb and I can't find another vendor. I like these for casual, long runtime use around the house.
Any help, please!

^Almost twice as much though... however the 2 and 5 pack are a bit better price per bulb then one.
I was thinking of picking up one or two at Lighthound before but since the minimum shipping to Canada is now $11 something and I did not have much else that I wanted enough to make shipping cost not as steep...

Hyea,
Where are you located in Canada? Could help for future orders...
:devil:
I may be ordering 1 or 2 of those bulbs soon...

Sad day. I love the SMJLED module (although the pr2 drop-ins that lighthound had were the single SS die version that didn't use every miliwatt of battery power like the 4-die version. Maybe someday someone will make another PR2 drop-in this useful.

Not quite the same thing as it is a 1 Watt Luxeon. You can get the same or similar at Sears under the Craftsman name.
This a review of one of the PR based SMJLED Bulbs. http://www.flashlightreviews.com/reviews/smjled_bulb.htm

metlarules, how many lumens would you estimate using 2 batteries, 3 volts? Thanks for the link.

Mine is in a 3d and it looks in the 30 to 40 lumen range.
Yes, i always hoped these PR-based SMJLED bulbs
would "catch fire", and really take off.
What a great upgrade opportunity,
what with a Hundred Million PR-2 (type) flashlights
in existence all around the world.
When i first came across these items,
back in 2006, i thought they'd be selling like mad !
Sadly, they are now just barely available. :sigh:
Gee, what happened ? ? ?

It may not be regulated like the more expensive EverLED

Hey Burgess, don't get down, they're still available at the Sandwich Shoppe. I'm thinking about trying one of these... I'll let you know.

But, right now I wish I had 4 or 5 more SMJLED's. They are really nice to use in household utility lights.
