Anyone know of any LED options for an M3X I have laying around? I used to use it on one of my Glocks and would use it again if it were LED.
Of course, I need at least as much output (125 lumen) as the incan bulb.

I actually have 3 Streamlights laying around (M3, M3LED, M3X).
I've recently been won over to the 'dark' side of LED lamps. I've had incans blow out while being used on firing weapons. Sure, I carry spares, but LED's have abetter recoil resistance than incan's.

I have a M6 that is just dying for a Cree LED upgrade.

I have two that could stand a cree upgrade as well.

I contacted them earlier about an LED upgrade for the M3-LED's main bulb but was told it's not possible due to heat issues. Tomac

I understand about the heat issues with current technology LEDs, but with intermittent and short-term use, I would think it it's doable.

are the heat issues beacuse the housing and the lens are plastic?

That would be my guess.

That doesn't make much sense considering the Cree LED upgrades that are out there for Surefire G2's.
