    Surefire Arc-2 HID

    I do wonder if you would be better of sending it back the the seller if you have the option too and getting a XeVison XV-LX70 or XV-LX50 which in my opinion seems a better light all round. Looking at a few of the specs of the lights: Arc2 4500lumens 1600m Throw Distance 5.8pounds weight 3ft...

    Lemax LX70 Superpower HID Light

    I think it was something like 4M+ CD based off the 4250m FL1 range stated, but cannot remember if someone has actually measured the lux.

    Committed Vintage Flashlight Heresy

    That really does work well in that light, i still have a few older lights that could do with some nice bulbs like that. This site also has a range of LED dropin PR bulbs i have the Maglite 220lumen dropin which is great. http://www.thetorchsite.co.uk/Universal_led_upgrades.html

    XeVision XV-LX70 and XV-LX70 SuperPower (both 50/70 watt HIDs) Review / Comparison

    That superpower has some serious throw :), some great pics and comparisons. Working out from the FL-1 4250m distance quoted for that light works out to 4.5million candlepower and it certainly shows in those pictures. Thanks for doing all that for us to have a look at :).

    lighthouse bulbs

    I tried to have a look searching in google for lamps for sale but i think you would need to know the specific bulb make/name as putting in "lighthouse" did not always come up with much. I did find this 1000w HID lighthouse bulb not for sale though but might help you in your search as they seem...
