Any idea where are they going this this time round? The same as the last one?

oic, then buy from oversea cheapest liao.

Be ready to empty your pocket if you are into this hobby, dude. $270.00 is really a good price for L4, which shop you went? Can PM me? Thanks. :)

Are you sure L4 is only $270 new from local camping shop? Wu yia boh? Tell me which shop is it leh, I go and see. BTW, Sheares is not selling L4 at $270.00, tried to bargain with the boss even, but still they refused to sell at $270.00 leh. :(

Which website? SPI one?

Persoanlly, I find the M3-T is ample for such trip, in fact I find it too bright. The M6 is really overkill and that is why I seldom use my M6. Zoom? Or do you mean the focusing features like the Maglite?

You ain't see nothing until you see his M6. :D But I thought he mentioned someone was using the ROP, that is another super mod M@glight that is very very bright.

That's great, but I think their fee should be cheaper.

Haha, only a flashaholic knows what a ROP is. Is the ROP brighter than your M6? Not everyone flashaholic will bring out their powerful lights one mah.

Actually they don't need anyone to convert them, I think they should have a flashaholic calibre member inside the team who take charge of gadgets and I am sure this guy will have some really powerful lights.

Yup, I have got the Mag85 tooo, VERY VERY BRIGHT!!! Enjoy yours. Oh, it has FANTASTIC, and I MEAN FANTASTIC throw!!! :o :o :thumbsup:

Indeed HID are efficient as I did put it on my list, look at point no.2 :) However, HID are so fragile that they cannot take any shock, once drop on the ground is sure to render the light useless and malfunction. That was what happened to my HID and I have yet replace the bulb. And if you want...

Disadvantages of HID 1) Requires a ballast to work (more parts mean more prone to failure) 2) F**king expensive bulb replacement 3) Very Fragile (So it is expensive and fragile), very sensitive to shock 4) No instant on/off (Instant on/off will make the light spoil faster) 5) Poor colour...

Spot on! cyrilng, not only the beam brightness will not go dim, the CCR (Co-related Color Rendition) is excellent. It is like natural sunlight. There aren't many regulated incandescant around because it is difficult to regulate an incandescant light. The A2 uses LVR (Lightbulb Voltage Regulator)...

True, LED is much much more efficient. But at the end of the day you'll have to see what are you using a light for. Not all Surefire lights have only 1 hour runtime lah, the Lux LED version ones some have 80 hours! If you want to a Surefire with long runtime, go for the these, Surefire A2...
