LED lamps add durability to flashlights

A line of 9-mm LED lamps fit most two and three-cell flashlights. They provide a solid-state, durable, weather-resistant bulb with no gases to heat, filaments to break, or glass globes to shatter. The LEDs provide pure-color light, even as battery power dwindles. The low power draw lets batteries last 15-20 times longer than when using incandescent bulbs.
