I have an Insight M3 and an M3X on my two main carry guns. I like the lights but wanted to upgrade the output and durability so I looked for the factory kits but those were sold out. So I took a chance and ordered a kit for each. It took about 2 and a half weeks to arrive, well packaged with a sticker and hook and loop patch that I'll never wear.

Instructions were a little cryptic but understandable if you're able to put a lower together error free. The LED is bright and fits perfectly into the housing. If you have one of these lights that still has the incandescent bulb I definitely recommend this upgrade.

Who makes the Kit I am actually looking for a kit of this nature, and could only find the factory one, but when I click the red link it just takes me to Brownells Black Friday Sale Page

I have one also and was dismayed that the kits are gone.  Also really interested.   Great post!

Is this what you ordered?

This one I ordered for the M3

They are two different kits, but the pictures are of the M3. The M3X installed the same way though. Both kits have worked great so far.

I ordered them direct from Lumens Factory. They shipped from China so it took a bit to arrive but the packaging was superb.

$53 for an led upgrade?   Pretty proud of their work I guess.

Agreed, but without it you have an archaic light that eats batteries.

My thoughts are with the 20 I paid for the light it will still be cheaper than another TLR1

Thanks for the information on the LED upgrade.

Dang that seems pricey, but if I need to upgrade the old M3, I know what will work...
