*[http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/167#comment-1134 2D ROP Mod] Has links to parts needed to convert a 2D Mag to a super bright li-ion powered [[Terminology#ROP|ROP]] light. If you live outside the USA, the bulbs will be hard to find, or extremely expensive to buy.

*[http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/1642 Mini Mag drop-in] by BLF user Match. Lets you drop in the brass pill of a [[P60]] giving you a lot of choices on LED and battery configurations. Involves boring out the head of the MiniMag a couple of millimeters using a 25/32 drill bit (3/4" plus some, that's a big bit). Not reversible, but a fairly quick mod if you have the drill bit and a drill press. He guesses 150 lumens from 2 AA batteries using a XP-G R5 LED and low-voltage driver.
*[http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/1373 3 XP-G Mini Mag] Another mod by Match. 600 lumens from a MiniMag. Involves some serious machinery to mill a copper pill plus a special 3 LED star and a driver that can handle a lot of current. Runs on 2 14500 li-ion batteries.
