As above i'm new and just looking for info on what's hot etc.

So if you could list what you think are the best lights in the following category that'd give me a better idea! By best i don't mean money no object, but combination of performance and value!

EDC
LED Thrower
LED Flood
LED general use (combination of flood and throw)
HID searchlight

EDC=HDS light
LED Thrower= Aspheric cree
LED Flood= McGizmo Mule
LED general use (combination of flood and throw)= Aspheric cree
HID searchlight= Maxabeam, think Jurassic Park :drool:


These are my opinion and I am sure others will have some good ones too.

HID SEARCHLIGHT
I live downtown. If I try to throw one of these, it will bonk a neighbour on the head who will promptly call the cops. So no suggestions.
