Default What LED cycle type bulbs to buy

Hi All,


I have a couple of lamps I‘d like to upgrade to LED, but am unsure what
bulbs to buy...,,


First is a Coleman camping light that has 4AAs arranged 2 in // in series
with 2 in // such that I presume they provide 3V at the bulb. The
previous bulb was a push in type as commonly found in bike lamps.




The other is a 3 x D Cell Maglite. (Can‘t remember offhand what sort of
bulb this takes). I‘d rather go for something that will just plug in and
work rather than converting an existing bulb (if that is possible).


There are conversion kits available for Maglites - I bought one a few years
ago. Just type " Maglite LED conversion" into ebay's search field

Can anyone give me links to suitable bulbs on eBay / Amazon / wherever
(prefer to buy single bulbs rather than 10 off)


Cheers
