Yeah...... I really wish I had done that too.I stocked up a long time ago, because I figured this was going to happen.
I like using the Magcharger with 2 X 32700 Lifepo4 (6500mah). It works very well for the stock bulb, or higher wattage 6V Halogen bulbs. And it should be safer than Li-ion.

Got two 32700 Lifepo4 cells in from Aliexpress.
They are too short and need a fairly deep button top to make the positive contact on the recessed magc terminal. I'm guessing use a stretched spring and solder a blob to make the + contact. Can you give me your method of what you did to make them work...
JE8.4V30W -- this one is perfect for 3 x Lifepo4 batteries
JE10.8V30W -- this one is perfect for 3 x Li-ion batteries
5761 6V30W G4 -- this one is perfect for 2 x Lifepo4 batteries
7388 6V 20W G4 -- this one is perfect for 2 x Li-ion batteries
64250 6V 20W G4 -- with 2 x Li-ions, it is easy to , I use this for 2 x Lifepo4 batteries
To upgrade the MagCharger, I think a 13W bulb is not enough... I use 5761 6V30W with 2 x 32700 6000mah) Lifepo4 with a spacer.
No, I use the stock bulb in my Magcharger so I do not need to drill and expand the hole. I used those more powerful bulbs in my other mod lights. I do not know if the socket of Magcharger can resist the heat of 5761? Probably not? By the way Fivemega has a ceramic socket for it.Thank You! That makes sense...
Did you have to drill out the metal reflector hole to make the Philips 5761 Bulb fit?
I have a Mica shield from 20 years ago but never used it... That's the WA1160 installed...
