My new 15 million Incan Spotlight

Hey guys!

Just wanted to show you all the new light I picked up for 42$!

What do ya all think? I'll probably take it with me when I go night riding on my ATV.

Sweet!

It screams HID kit. I think the folks at CPF call it a Thor mod when you drop in an HID PnP kit into one of those bulky 15mcp spots

YES! I was actually thinking that .

FYI, candlepower is more a measure of divergence than raw power.

Yeah the HID mod is gnarly.

That's the direction I'd be going in

Hmm.. HID it is then... where do I get one of these Thor kits?

You may have to verify this, but I think that light has a halogen capsule mounted onto an automotive bulb base, and for some reason, H4 seems to be the most common automotive bulb base used in these spotlights. After double-checking what bulb you have, you just get an HID kit with the same automotive bulb base, and I think that's all you gotta do. H4 is weird, though, because the H4 automotive bulb is a dual filament, while you will want to find a single HID capsule on an H4 base. You may have to make some spacers to get the arc into the focal point of the reflector because HID kits are generally not the greatest optical quality in terms of precision of placement.

DDM has H4 singe mode HID sets available cheaply. For around $40 you get a kit with 2 bulbs and 2 ballasts. They do ship from overseas so shipping runs around $20 and can take 2-3 weeks

Lumens is probably a better measure for such a light.
