Can you substitute a regular light bulb for a krypton light bulb?

Generally, yes. It will all depend on the voltage and the current capabilities of the supply. Mostly in torches (flashlights), you can. Using a krypton bulb wil be brighter but draw more current, reducing the life of the batteries.

Why does your Maglite flashlight blow the light bulb as soon as you turn it on?
If you have recently purchased light bulbs for your light, it is probably because you have bought the wrong voltage bulb. There are several different types of MagLites and each one must match the voltage of the batteries to the voltage of the bulb. For example: If you bought a 3v bulb (2-cell) and put it in a 4-C Maglite, you'll blow the bulb (4 batteries x 1.5v = 6v total) There are two types of brand-name bulbs for incandescent (non-LED) Maglites. The original OEM bulb was a Krypton bulb and the newer, brighter bulbs are Xenon. They are available for all two through six cell C and D size Maglite flashlights. Krypton bulbs LWSA201 - 2-Cell Krypton LWSA301 - 3-Cell Krypton LWSA401 - 4-Cell Krypton LWSA501 - 5-Cell Krypton LWSA601 - 6-Cell Krypton Xenon bulbs LMSA201 - 2-Cell Xenon LMSA301 - 3-Cell Xenon LMSA401 - 4-Cell Xenon LMSA501 - 5-Cell Xenon LMSA601 - 6-Cell Xenon See the "Related Links" for examples of each
