They have several drop in models. The one for either AA or AAA took maybe two minutes, including a stubborn retaining ring for the reflector. There is nothing to indicate polarity so I had to turn the module around.
I've looked at MiniMag conversions. I suppose part of why I haven't gone with them is I'm lazy. To be accurate, I deal with computers and electronics all day. That last thing I want to do at the end of the day is write code or dig out the soldiering iron. :P A lot of the conversions that I found last time I looked (it was a while ago) weren't drop in modules, but take apart the switch and play with it until it works modules.

Ah, that one. I got a red version of the TerraLux, it was my first LED replacement. It works all right, but I had to grind away part of the reflector to get it to fit right. It's still the only red one I know about, otherwise I prefer the Opalec.
