I have a torch that was purchased around 2011, it stayed in the packaging until i recently unpacked it. I've been looking to swap the LED for a brighter, more powerful drop-in. I've identified it as a 2nd gen luxeon LED which happens to have a drastically different tie-down for the LED compared to other torches?
I've been unable to remove the LED, are gen 2 maglite LED's even replaceable? If not is there any you'd suggest.

It's probably not worth messing with trying to upgrade the emitter in that light, IMO. There are maglite experts on here though, hopefully one will chime in...
