So, Ray...where do you see your L5 fitting in with your needs?
I have looked at beam shots and it looks like the throw is only marginally better than the L4, or am I wrong?
Is this a fair analogy: Arc LSHP is to LSHPF as L4 is to L5?
If not, why not?
I mean it IS the Holiday Season and I HAVE been good, but is the L5 so different than L4 to fill a niche that my DB400R2H cant fill, at 4x the runtime as an L5?

Blue, the throw found in the L5 is noticably better than the L4. Since I'm trying to convert to all LED, the L5 does have a place for me. It has enough usefull spill light to be noticed, whereas the LSHF has no side spill whatsoever. I'm unsure of the L5 runtime, since I haven't tested it yet. If it get at least as much as the L4, I'll be happy. My biggest reason for keeping the L5 is for modularity (if this is really a word). I like using the L4 or UBH as the host unit. I can't do that with the L6. With a simple L4 or UBH body, I have so many options for lighting it's simply amazing. I won't list them all here, but there are now literally a dozen different configurations that are available to me, by just changing a bezel and using the E2C.
Sorry, I think I strayed from your questions. Did I answer them all?
