Mmmmm.....sleeper killer....drool....

 

[Mr Ted Bear]

We had a rehersal last night.... more like, Kenshiro needed access to the sleeper.... he needed to confirm that the "sleeper killer" would beat the sleeper... can we say, homicide, first degree ?


I thought 10,0000 lumens was nuts,, 16k 20k and now 30k (Ken5, Ken6 and Ken 7)....

Stayed tuned......

Did you mean 10,000 lumens was nuts? You scared me for a minute.

Anyway, 30,000 lumen Ken7 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/faint.gif

I think The Sleeper is going to have to get /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/drunk.gif, so when it gets its /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/whoopin.gif, it wont be as bad.


30,000 lumens!!!......(I go off mumbling blameing Kenshiro for driving me insane with anticipation...)

 

[Sway]

Humm, I see all the photos from the first super light shootout on Kenshior's home page have been removed. I can only think something bigger and better is on the way and the suspense is deliciously evil /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin07.gif talk of Ken5, Ken 6, Ken7 lights and the 175 short arc Mega Ray.....The mind boggles /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

 

[S4MadMan]

Just got back from Super Light Shoot-Out 2 and the Ken 4 and 5 are the most ridiculous lights I've ever seen. I'll post a little some thing ASAP. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif hehehehehehe......I can't wait. Hmmm.....good thing I'm not alergic to popcorn.

 

[MaxaBaker]

delete.....sorry everyone /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

Still waiting... Did you guys ever get a HID thor? I'd like to see what it does against the Thor boost mod...

 

[theepdinker]

I expect the Thor boost to stomp the snot out of a 35 watt Thor Hid.
Hid is all about run time.

Theepdinker

 

[markdi]

thor boost will have a new challenger soon

50 watt 5300 lumen(at the bulb) dl50 hid thor.

boosted thor may still be a bit brighter

especially at 3x

untill some one figures out how to overdrive the dl50 bulb
to 75 watts or so.
still I will settle for runtime - color temp - bulb life and lumen maintainence of hid.

 

[Hallis]

Need Pics.

 

[markdi]

not built yet

need another thor from costco

A stock thor only has around 2400 bulb lumens(bulb is under driven)

so a boosted 2x thor would have 4800 lumens

so a dl50 50 watt hid thor would have over 10% more light at the bulb.

boosted 3x still wins. - for now.

 

[markdi]

how fast does the 2x boosted thor bulb degrade - dim ?

 

[markdi]

maybe I should put my 50 watt ballast and 5300 lumen dl50 bulb in a --- ???

is it called a 240 blitz spotlight ?

Geeeeeezzz!!!! NOw, everyone is making one!!!!! Sway, Draco, and now markdi..........my turn!!!!!

I'm gonna build one of these. I have to!!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

[cheesehead]

Ultimately, the Newbie will be a brighter and won't degrade over time (since it's voltage regulated). But on the other hand a 50 watt HID mod is also a lot of light, hmm, need pics,...

 

[markdi]

all incandescent and hid bulbs suffer from lumen degradation
regardless of if they are regulated or not.

the reduction of lumens has nothing to do with a change in the power supply feeding the bulb.

simply put the bulb (incandescent or otherwise) gets less efficient over time.(unless there is a photo thransistor and a control circuit monitoring the light output and regulating it.
