Is there an official internet site of McCulloch's products? I wish to see if they have another amazing products, and at least, to see in detail the specifications of the X990.
 
Thanks. I think the X990 is an excellent choice for those who want one of the most powerful flashlight in the category of portable flashlight.
I'm am happy to see more and more products like this.
I hope in the future, all good manufacturers of flashlights will have HID products, because I think the HID (and LED) technology is a revolution in the world of flashlights.
The X990 is rechargeable, delivered with two batteries and the price is, for me, not expensive at all, compared to other products in the same family.
But do you know how much costs a replacement HID lamp assembly for the X990? $100-200?
And 3000 hours of lamp life (seen in Brightguy), is it true (when correctly used off course)?

The bulb is around $100 and the best part is, the lamp is also under warranty. I was told that if the lamp isn't broken physically, they will replace it for free under warranty.

Does anyone know if the 990 can be run "continuously?" If, say you have six battery packs, can you keep changing the batteries as they run down, for a total "continuous" run time of 6+ hours? Thanks for any replies.
 
I have used up both of the batteries in one "sitting" without incident; don't see any reason why I couldn't have continued to to swap battery after battery
 
The problem with X990 is after get used to the intensity of the light, even the M6 looks dim and feeble!!!

This is the price one got to pay!!!

It sounds sarcastic but it's very true.

Ok, so, how much does this thing cost, then? Anyone have beam shots of it compared to and X10, M6, other HID(s)? Thanks.

Doug
 
the problem with the x990 is it's 4 or 5 degrees too wide a beam -- give me 7 million cp at 2 degrees or give me dark!
 
I am happily waiting for my X 932 hid. It should be here next week.
