I have a 4 cell Maglite with a 3 watt (!!!) LED that is brighter than any other flashlight I have ever owned.
You can buy the Maglite 3 watt LEDs that fit their older flashlights as well.

They're coming, Tom. I just got (as a 'surprise' Father's Day gift) a pair of 1 watt Luxeon LED flashlights that run on 3 AAA batteries and are brighter than a 2 C-Cell Maglite.

But a couple months ago I spent a few hours cruising around the net looking to replace those bulbs with screw in LED bulbs. For the most part I failed to find any LED bulbs that gave the light equivalent of more than about 20 watts incandescent. It was something of a disappointment to me but it doesn't appear the LED tech is quite there yet for normal home consumer use. But I'll keep watching for them.
