There is conflicting information regarding these conversion kits. People state that the torch head doesn't screw all the way down. Is this the case?

That is correct it does not screw down as far as with the original bulb due to the driver circuitry being housed in a "washer" that stops the head. However it still works in the same way, you just dont need as many turns to release it. Cant be sure if the o ring seals as well but I'm not intending to use it underwater in any case!

Do you have to have the push button base for this to work

Works perfectly with the standard twisting on/off function of the Mini Maglite

Will this fit Maglite Solitaire? Thanks

For the Maglite Solitaire you need this LED bulb here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B012ZIPAMW

What is the outer ring diameter and central led diameter. i have an almost identical 2xaa flashlight by legend and would like to upgrade.

The 'outer ring' or base of the bulb has a diameter of 16mm and the thickness of the base is 2.5mm. The diameter of the LED is 3.15mm. All the measurements were taken with a Moore & Wright micrometer. Hope this information helps.

Very good upgrade

I haven't used my maglite for years since led has taken over due to the better brightness, longer life bulbs and battery life. However I have now upgraded my maglite to be led and I'm very happy since I now own a very good quality torch which is led. I find the focus the same and the bulb was very easy to fit. Only issue was the price since its just about on the limit of how much I would pay to upgrade instead of just buying a new torch but worth it due to the quality of the original torch and for environmental reasons.
