There is an LED upgrade option but it is $20-30 hence buying new.

The old incandescent models are a bin job

Only if you must have the absolute latest and greatest.

They'll still work as good as the day they were made.......

Also, I upgraded my trusty 6D about 12 months ago with an LED upgrade and the thing is brilliant now. It wasnt that cheap but I reckon it had more light output and the battery lasts forever, here's what I used:

I bought the AA version in a spunky blue colour.

Pretty impressed, much better than my old AA maglite. Has an 'SOS' function of flashes, and can use 25% power or full 100% power as well as the spot or spread beam adjust. (turn it on and off enables this function)

The AA was 'normally' about $28, I got it on special,....so 30 somehting dollars for the 3D is a a good buy.

Guess the big ones also have this feature?

D4D · « **Reply #35 on:** August 04, 2013, 01:13:05 PM »

That annoys me with the newer torches which is why I went back to the good ol' Maglite. Push button for on and push button for off, none of this flash, half power stuff.

cruisindub · « **Reply #36 on:** August 04, 2013, 01:20:08 PM »

Although, I could imagine of you were to forget about the feature, then youd be chucking out alot of batteries thinking they are on the way out.

I like it. Whether or not I use it is another story, but at least its there and if I want it.

I wouldnt mind the P7, but just a bt too exxy for me. Besides, wife would crack the sh1ts if I bought another torch.

If you like modding things, and everyone on this forum loves it, have a go at your trusty mag light and turn it into something special with a kit from these guys.

I got the buntings trade email less than a week ago and they were on there again.

D4D · « **Reply #45 on:** September 07, 2013, 08:31:16 PM »

Interesting, they have been pulled from their web site and I bought the last few at my local Bunnings and they said they were not getting any more in and they were a special order.

If you're still after one try the RSEA safety gear store / website at $39.95.
