I have tried to find a regular led bulb that is not + or - directional, with no luck. I settled for an hp 74 lumen, 'nite ize' led bulb. I also had to modify the D cell adapter, with very small brass screws, threaded, then solder'ed, into the negative side contacts to elevate the battery contact 1/8' above the negative side platform base. NOTE!..slightly reaming the retainer contact studs, ( i used a very small phillips screw driver ) will help start the brass screws. This step was necessary, because the adapter had plastic 'rails' to support the positive side of the batteries, on either side of the positive contact plate, making the simple task of installing the batteries in backwards, useless. After completion, the center spring contact on the adapter's top, is now positive, making the use of a cheaper led bulb possible. note! I used a heat sink when I did the soldering, because the D cell adapters from 'rayovac' are made from abs plastic. Walmart stopped carrying the adapters, Amazon.com was 'out of stock', as I'm converting two lanterns, I found two on ebay for $8.99 w/free shipping. 5/15/2016
