Interesting idea, would probably work with batteries and an led too? Bringing old and new together, certainly the brightest light it will ever output!

I regularly convert the old military vapalux lamps to electric. Look really nice when the paints removed and polished up. Small bit of machining on a mini lathe and the bits from B&Q.
