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

Catch of the day have the same special and it comes with a set of Duracells.

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?

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.

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.

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.

I ordered the upgrade form $7:95 including delivery, I'll let you know how it goes.
