What lights do you have?

[ossumguywill]

Are you sure? Those orange street lamps are HPS?

 

[Cyparagon]

I am sure. Look at them through a diffraction grating, and you'll see far more than one color.

 

[aryntha]

While the majority of the US uses HPS, a small number of US municipalities use LPS, specifically, San Jose California.

Many US towns had pushes to convert from MV to LPS in the 70s. It seems only a few in the US actually did so, and San Jose is one of them.

I actually have several LPS lamps, one that I have running in daily use is an 18w monochromatic LPS on the outside of my shed/lab.

I posted a couple of weeks ago about the small T6-R-18 650 LED Flashlight tactic http://www.everbuying.com/T29-R-18650-LED-Tactical-Q3-Flashlight-p-28774 Q3. html for $ 13.I ordered this point of view on the 6/18/10 and arrived on the 24th which I think is pretty good. Now to light, light is pretty well done and current status of cabbage.

The link's broken... And how could you have posted a couple of weeks ago if you only have one post?

Busted! Spam!

 

[agravlin]

Thank you!Indeed,i'm very like my light.

You are very like your light? So your light is a Chinese spammer?

In the words of Gollum, LEAVE NOW AND NEVER COME BACK!

Mod notified.

New light: Kai RQ (aka the "Spear Clone"). I'll do a detailed review later, right now I'll just post a picture.

Shed is probably around 150 feet away.

This HID came in recently for me. It's a PH40 from Polarion.

Size comparison with my other 'big' lights.

I'll see if I can get some beamshots up next week.

^ Wow, that's one seriously expensive light. Was it worth it?

Absolutely.
If you're into big-lumen lights, this is one of those you have to try or own if you can.

 

[aryntha]

I was into big-lumen setups for awhile but pretty much ended (well, paused...) with 30w HID, Cree MC-E and XR-E and SSC P7 lights.

I've got a Fenix TK10, L1D, L2D, P3D, some older SureFire LumaMax L2 and LumaMax L4's, as well as the colored (R, G, B, W) Surefire L1s. Beyond that, a warm temp Cree in an UltraFire host, some Chinese made MC-E and P7 18650 lights. And I still like my Underwater Kinetics HID as dim as it may be.

What would you recommend right now if someone wanted to really "go bright or go home" as far as high lumen portables goes?

What kind of budget? Polarion makes a 50W HID light if you've got the money for it.

Is that $1500 or so or am I not even in the right ballpark there? It's something I'd consider...

 

[Prototype]

I believe it's $2500.
