Bushnell HD Torch...

[indychris]

Anyone know anything about this? What LED it uses? How it projects the square beam?

From the specs it doesn't seem all that efficient to me, and I have no desire to buy one, but just seeing it piques my curiosity.

The square beam is produced by an aspherical lense, basically it projects an image of the die inside the led.

The Problem:
Conventional flashlights produce circular patterns of light that are non-uniform irregular “blobs” of light.

The Solution:
Innovative and patented technology provides a uniform pattern of light – from edge to edge. Resulting in a perfectly uniform square beam of light and providing “High Definition Illumination.”

Whoa, finally flashlights in HD! Now I can enjoy the night in the same High Definition as I do the daytime (using HD Lenses):

Hopefully compatible with Night Vision HD wrap-arounds:

I got to play with one once at a local gunshow. I liked it alot and wouldv'e purchased it but it was kinda used and the guy was an A$$ and he wanted 90$ bucks for it.

If I were ever to come across one at a good price I'd get it. Inside the convention center it had real good throw on focus considering it was a well light indoor area.

Yes but the beam is very different from the square beams of the CREE LED's projected with an aspheric. Does it use a CREE LED or other brand LED?

It used a Phillips Lumileds Luxeon Rebel. I don't know exactly why you're commenting here but a more recent thread might be more useful to you, things have changed a lot in the flashlight world since 2011 (atleast I assume they have, I've kind of been out of the loop. I managed to break my addiction but I fear a relapse coming on).

LOL....I agree. The original poster submitted this almost four years ago. That light is probably in a museum by now!! 😉 😀

the link didnt go anywhere. I can say I got the highest end Bushnell model 1125 something or other and its horrid. Idk what the LED is its a quad emitter of some kind. Projects a big X wherever you point it.

It did not go anywhere because it was created 4 years ago. The product either changed or is no longer being made. 😀
