A few years ago I considered a G2 LED conversion at $45. But instead I bought a new G2 LED light for $60. For $15 more I had 2 lights.

Those you are looking at have a 3.6 to 18 volt range. I'd say the 450 lumens is at 18 volts. So at 6 volts that's potentially 150 lumens. Not bad for $12. Wonder if it's plastic or metal reflector. If it's plastic you could have overheating issues. Worth a try for $12.
