About this deal

The bulb is a s imple 3 mode Low, Medium, High with memory by default, however its easily customized for those who like a taste of something different. Are you a fan of established classics? No product composed of plastic parts, but aluminum and perfect run time? In addition to the astounding output the new version of Lumencraft Superbulb™ comes with the most flexible user interface to date. Created by BLF member DrJones this UI has something to offer for everyone.

Runtime with low power mode is approximately 36 hours.with 4D cells. Power consumption approximately 1 watt producing approximately 100 lumens Here we’re looking at the latest version of Maglite’s 3 x D-Cell torch, a decades long staple of home owners and New York cops alike, alongside 3 competitors plus the smaller, lighter 3 x C-cell Maglite ML50L and a newer, brighter torch based on rechargeable batteries. How we judge The light produced will only dim near the end of the batteries' lifetime. It only gradually fades, not a sudden drop out of lightTo set the turbo timer: rapidly tap the switch 8 times, the light will then enter the programming mode and begin to flash. With the light in programming mode, tap the switch 30 times to enter the turbo timer set mode. The light will then switch to 100% power. When the light is at the desired temperature for the turbo step down, turn the light off. The turbo timer will then be set. The turbo timer steps the light down to 50% regardless of the mode group set. This LED upgrade, has 3 power modes of low medium and high. Please see picture comparision images below to see the relative peformance levels All these torches are judged on the authors own, subjective view, partly based on specification and partly his personal experiences & preferences.

Easy to fit, just a matter of replacing the original reflector and bulb with the high power LED upgrade

We can immediately disregard the Nebo and the Coast HP17 due to their low runtime, although notably the Nebo is the only torch here with an IPX7 water proof rating. All the others boast relatively high brightness levels for very long runtimes. The LED Lenser & Walther Pro XL1000 both have higher outputs than the Maglite ML300L, and excellent variable beams. But the LED Lenser is smaller and notably lighter than the Walther Pro, winning it a top spot.

Longer battery life results from the circuit built into the unit which completely utilizes the power from the batteries, whilst maintaining constant light output. New for this winter (2020/21) is the TTS-ULT10MM with the Luminus SST-40-W LED as apposed to previously with the Cree XM-L2 LED. This LED conversion now produces approximately 1200 lumens plus with the high power mode. The optional glass lens is hardened glass that is more resistant to breaking and scratching than traditional glass. A scratch free lens will have better light transmittance and is easy to clean. This bulb is for use with the voltage of 6D cells ONLY, not more or less (NIMH are best). However if you want power it with other cells such as a pair of 26650s a 2D to 2x26650 kit is available in the shop. This video shows how to install it. If you want to use the 2x26650 kit in a larger mag than 2D just get the 2D kit and add dummy D cells in before you install the battery sleeve. Example a 4D light would need 2 dummy D cells and the 2x 26650 body kit. https://lumencraft.com/-diy-parts/35-dummy-c-an-d-cell-batteries.htmlUpgrade your existing Maglite® with a high output LED lamp that will also help you save money on batteries and standard bulb replacement costs. Exchanging the lamp / bulb requires no tools and is very easy, the new LED simply replaces the existing lamp. Runtime with high power mode is approximately 5 hours with 4 D cells. Power use of approximately 9 watts producing approximately 1200 lumens. All 6 of these torches are excellent choices, depending on your specific requirements. But to my mind, 2 are better.

It is designed with a solid polished metal reflector and heat sinking to allow for improved optics and heat dissapation. This bulb will transform your Maglite into a ultra high performance, reliable, energy efficient torch making it the perfect choice for professionals. In addition to the astounding output the new version of Lumencraft Flashlights Superbulb™ comes with the most flexible user interface to date.

Multi-mode electronic switch with 5 available modes: Momentary, Full Power, Low Power, Eco Mode and StrobeRuntime with medium power mode is approximately 12 hours with 4D cells. Power consumption of approximately 3 watts producing approximately 350 lumens The Maglite ML300L is lighter again and also has has 5 different features (high, low, eco, strobe & momentary), usefully grouped in feature sets of 3, making real world use extremely simple once a feature set has been selected.
