My custom MX-991/U

Post by justang1997 » Wed May 21, 2014 8:55 pm

Old GI "L" light. I put in a led bulb upgrade and a single 123 lithium battery in the area below the spring where the old spare bulb used to reside.
Brighter, more durable, longer battery life, and now has storage space for a survival kit. Best part of all is it can still take the regular batteries if needed.
Thinking about stacking three cr123 lithium and running a 1000 lumen drop in bulb in another one.

Pretty Kewl ... I like.
Didn't know there were LED replacements for those ... Should have known though ... Lol
Learn something new every day ... almost.

It's just a 2cell maglight LED upgrade. Just match the voltage to the batteries you plan to use.
