Hi,

I got the rare chance to play with a Megaray 175 again tonight.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

This is serious fun /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif

This pic makes for a great desktop wallpaper so I thought I would share it with you all.

We are going to do a Daylight shot to compare it with in the next week or so.

It looks even better printed out on a Photo quality inkjet.

Have fun (I just have /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif )

Nice!!! What is the distance to the antenna? Is the 175 similar to the regular Megaray?

What do you do for a living to get to play with such cool toys, I mean lighting instruments?

Alex,

Megaray 175 is the 175 Watt version of the Megaray the standard one is "only" 125 Watts.

We think the distance is around 1/2 mile.
We drove round for an hour looking for suitable targets /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif The tower is about 100ft high.

It should become clear when we produce the daylight shot.

We lit a Water Tower from a clocked 1/2 of a mile even with the Megaray set to wide angle beam. We could not get suitable pics as there were too many trees in the way.

I am an Electrical Engineer by trade, it just happens that my closest friend happens to be the UK agent. He has the light as it is going on a demo later in the week.

Where the heck can I get one of those, and how big a loan do I need to take out on my house? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Insane! 175W and optics create a killer beam.

So the big question, how much does a Megaray cost ?

I know, I know - If I have to ask I can't afford one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/twakfl.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/broke.gif
 
Re: Megaray 175 Ultimate Beamshot pic (Warn 800k p

Price is over $6000. With discounts for large orders! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Just had my friend ring me with the results of todays demo.

The Megaray can be seen clearly from 10 Miles away in DAYLIGHT with the naked eye. They are now going to try it from 20 Miles away.

His exact comment was that it looks like a mini Sun on top of the hill.

Can we see a daylight pic of the light from 10 miles away?

Please!!!

Alex,

Sorry I don't have any pics of yesterdays test.

But if we get chance before the Megaray has to be returned we may try to take some Daylight shots. Along with some Flood mode nightime shots.

I have now updated the Megaray 175 review on my website (see link below) with the fullsize photos shown above.

I have also added links to Ariel views and maps of the location so distances can be seen! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

This is really worth a look. I found it hard to believe myself at first. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif
