Maglite 6D Conversion Help

If brightness is important for you, another option is 3XML drop in

Durability and battery life are what is important. So long as it's as bright or brighter than the stock incandescent maglite, I'm good on the brightness department.

Gang, what do you make of this Cree bulb?

Seems really good yet inexpensive. How does it compare to the Malkoff?

That bulb is about as good as you will ever do for the straight "replacement bulb" type. UpLed is the same maker as Rapid2you mentioned in my video. I tested their 6 cell version and also got around 260ish lumens also. When I tested the Malkoff it was 360.

The Malkoff is rated at 325 lumens, heat won't be a problem.

Here are some other alternatives as well. Reviewed by one of our well-known members from Adventure Sports Flashlights:
