    "Lightforce custom" remote mount 240mm blitz 70w hid..

    You bring a good point, Onestep. I shoot a 300win mag at the 1000yd range and when I back up from there, I shoot a 375 CheyTac out to about 2000yds or further. There is NO way I'd attempt to put a light on one of those rifles.... I don't know for sure but, I suspect that anything that will...

    Source for G2 bulb

    It's just a couple of seconds. It's ok with me.... It's much brighter now... and I'm not sure if the old bulb was coming unseated or something but, the focus now with the new bulb is much tighter... before when focusing the beam down... it seemed like you could make the little tiny beam but it...

    Thanks, Guys! That bulb did work.... I can't begin to tell you how much brighter this light is now. The focus is MUCH tighter... it's a MUCH brighter light now. Another question... I'd expect the bulb to fire right up when pressing the power but, it seems like there is a delay of a couple of...

    "Lightforce custom" remote mount 240mm blitz 70w hid..

    I've gotten some lights over the last few years.... Some LED by ven like the tk61vn with over 500kcd and even a maxabeam G2..... What I would tell you is get a brighter light than you'd expect to need because once you get past 500yds or so, it gets really hard to see. It's hard to see past...

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!! I am a bit of a light hound but, on this board... I'm a know nothing. The bulb in my light is pretty old, I'm sure but, it still works. Can I expect a performance inprovement? I picked up the light 2nd hand and really have no idea how old it is... I had...

    GREAT! Just to make sure.... Will that G3 bulb kit work in a G2 light? If not, are there options? If so, I'll go and get a couple of those.

    Thought I'd just call peak beam for a replacement bulb and found out they were over 400 bucks..... Surely, there are better options?

    LONG throw

    The beast arrived... I picked it up at the post office.... I'm a little pissed... the guy didn't send the AC adaptor.... but, the light works great... I'll need to fine tune the focus but, that's just an allen wrench and 10 mins of work... Now, I just have to wait about 9hrs for dark!!!!!

    I believe the 1307 is the right battery. I think you don't need the special charger for it but, it's more expensive but, it's only 2.5lbs... the other 1207 battery is over 5lbs and requires a charger.. ( which is included with my light ) I believe there's even a battery that outperforms the...

    Ebay 55W HID spotlight

    I'd be very interested in learning about that... what plugs, what cells and where to find a box I can modify into something that would work. I'm handy enough to probably make it slide onto the feet of the MB if I had the right box, cell/cells and plugs etc. I think with a drillpress and router...

    Ebay 55W HID spotlight

    I bought one too... broke in 2wks.... don't bother.... It was a 55w ballast, however... mine was advertized as 100w HID... it was 55w... and, it broke in 2wks... exact same light... Decided to quit trying to cheap out... I have a G3 maxabeam on the way.... ( sometimes it's better to buy once...
