Anybody know where I can get reasonably cheap led drop-ins for these? I know Lumen Factory do them for around 60 bucks but I was thinking more along the lines of 20 to 30.

Check mtnelectronics. I know at one time he had some pretty cheap ones on there. You can always do fleabay too. Tons on there.

Yes, agree with Mr Burly above.
But such nice vintage classics, and in beautiful condition too ... why not get them something of comparable quality [emoji317]

Unfortunately there aren't tons on ebay that I could find other than the ones with built in reflectors which won't work in the E2 as the reflector is part of the head, it doesn't come out separately. I know you can get replacement heads but I don't want to change the lights, just replace the bulbs.
If I can't pick up cheap drop-in's I'll probably just keep them as my 'token' incandescent lights.

I just reread your post. I saw the 60 and assumed that was your price. My apologies, I'd save up a few extra dollars if possible and get one of the lumens factory drop ins everything they have is quality

My advice would be to keep the M3 as it is. What a beauty. If you don't like it anymore, it should fetch a good price on the marketplace. I agree with your sentiment that the head of the light should not be replaced. Years ago, I ditched my incandescent Surefires and have regretted it ever since.

Perhaps I'll keep them as is and if I feel flush sometime I'll stretch for the lumen factory drop in replacements.
