Maglite LED flashlight conversion, Surefire LED flashlight conversion. Super bright LED flashlights

I just played with a 2 led conversion for a MagCharger. The conversion alone is 150.

It is fully as bright as an aircraft landing light (no exaggeration, I had one on the shelf.)

They have a conversion for a Surfire that is absolutely blinding. $60, and totally worth it.

Their stuff is hand built, and beautiful.
I got the 5 watt CREE LED kit for my Maglite Rechargeable about 6 months ago and it's the best ever. For the first 4-5 hours it's about 20% brighter then the old black body bulb and then it's about 80% for the next day or so and then it's about 30% for the next two weeks. Yes always on for two weeks. And the best part is the bulb lasts forever and if you drop it off a building it still works.
