After reading this thread the other day I sent for this for a mini Maglite 2AA cell. It arrived today and I have just replaced the original lamp. Boy is this tiny led bright and the batteries in the torch were getting flat with the original lamp. Mini Maglite LED Upgrade Conversion TTS Bulb 2 AA Cell Torch Flashlight | eBay

Conclusion:
Having already got 3 x 18650 batteries and a cheap charger that was use on the cycles before the cheap lights went faulty I decided to go down this route and have just ordered:
1 x Canwelum T6 Cree torch plus 3 x decent Canwelum 18650's
1x T6 Cree Ultrafire Ex UK torch
1 x T6 Cree Ultrafire Ex China Torch ( mega cheap )
1 x T6 Cree Forrader torch Ex UK
Need to use 1 off from above on cycle mount to replace a faulty one.
1 x Lighthouse as per Link from Alf which I will keep with standard batteries in MH for backup to one of above
1 x XTAR VC2 intelligent 2 x batt USB powered charger with display which will also give true mah of each battery to replace existing one which is of unknown quality.
Nothing too expensive for the present. Will now keep Feenix and LED Lenser on my EBay watching list to see if anything of interest appears as fancy a punt on a decent one.

I treated myself to this.
Active Pro Series 210lm Aluminium Cree LED Torch | Departments | DIY at B&Q
Took the dog for a walk last night, the torch was getting dim, bloody batteries going flat!
The bloody batteries have only been in since our honeymoon, over three years ago!
