Hello Everyone,
First let me say that I am a completely clueless noob when it comes to led's and lights. I got this 160 lumen Milwuakee light in a tool kit I recently purchased and am really disappointed with it overall. I have a coast px25 that I use daily and it really blows the Milwaukee out of the water.
The light is powered by an 18 volt 4ah 72wh lithium battery. The led currently in it is pictured below. It is 160 lumens and the board is 25mm in diameter. The voltage at the legs measure 3.29 volts with the led on but still connected.
I'm thinking I could drop a SST-90 in like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Luminus-SST...arts_and_Accessories&var=&hash=item3cec8ba93c and have a much better light. Am I way off in my thinking? Would you recommend a different Led? Or is it more complicated than just replacing the current Led?
thanks
