Makita A-90261 Replacement Bulb (Xenon), 2/pk

I have the cheap Ryobi flashlight that comes in the big set of 18v One+ tools. These bulbs fit perfectly and are nice and bright. Don’t waste a bunch of money on converting these old flashlights to LED. The reflectors aren’t designed for them, so your light beam will be funky. You can buy a new, inexpensive LED shop flashlight for about the same as the conversion bulbs. These came well packaged and fit perfectly. Don’t hesitate to buy them. They will fit any flashlight that uses this kind of base.

I bought these bulbs as replacements for my Black & Decker 18V flashlight. The 90261 bulb is very popular and used on many 18V flashlights.The fit perfectly and the replacement cost was about half of what B&D bulbs were on sale at my 2 local big box lumber stores. There is no reliable way to calculate the hrs used before they burn out. Mine have been going strong for the past year, and that includes a couple of accidental falls from a step ladder with the light on. I thought for sure, it would break the filament, It landed and kept right on shining. So I am pleased with their performance and would reorder them again when needed.

So far so good in my old Milwaukee M18 flashlight.

Works in my 15+ year old B&D 18V 'torch'. Seems to be decent light from it. OE bulb lasted until the light fell & blew bulb. Hope these last as long.2 bulbs in a plastic zip bag in the bubble-padded Amazon large envelope w/ footprints & scrapes all over it. Glad the bulbs didn't get crushed!

I needed a new bulb for my Hitachi UB18DAL. I was a bit worried it wouldn't fit or work properly after reading some reviews here. It seemed some had success and others had problems. These bulbs fit perfect and the light powered on just fine. These were 1/3 cheaper than the Hitachi brand and now I have a spare! Would recommend.

Complete waste of time and money. Both bulbs burned out within 10 minutes of use. Likely not really rated for 18V. Nice and bright while they worked. But they got aggressively hot. Cannot recommend. Been trying to find an OEM bulb for my Hitachi 18V for a while and sadly these are not them. Move along.

I dropped my B&D flashlight on the floor and it died. Upon inspecting the lightbulb I found a tiny segment of the filament has fallen off. I tried looking up the replacement bulb in Home Depot but the only 18V they carry is for dewalt and it costs $7.99 a pair so I cheated by buying the maglite bulb that was only $2.99 a piece even though it specifically said only for 3 or 4 C or D cell maglite. Needless to say that maglite bulb went puff immediately when the flashlight was turned on. So I started looking for replacement on Amazon and stumbled upon this bulb that comes with free shipping whereas the other sellers were selling for $1.99+$6.99 shipping. The shipment arrived in a brown envelope via USPS with a tiny ziplock inside containing unbranded two bubble-wrapped bulbs rather than the typical plastic packaging, which is just fine by me. The bulbs filament is coiled so they appear much thicker than the flimsy original B&D bulb I'm replacing, which is comforting since it doesn't look like it can break easily. Packaging aside, it arrives safely and works just fine, so 5-star.

These bulbs break after 1 drop of the drop light. I won't use it again because i can't - the last one melted the housing. O well.
