9-CREE Death Ray at Lighthound

See 4 yourself:

http://www.lighthound.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=2804

It's $900 and 1000 lumens - Elektrolumens has a 1200 lumens 8 x SSC flashlight for $500 called the Stunner P4 - check at the very bottom. Plus the one at Lighthound takes 15 CR123 - the Stunner P4 takes 3xD NiMH (or alkaline).

You pick which one you want to replace batteries in.

Thank Goodness, it only uses 15 CR123's!

Stunner P4 on sale for $425 in the marketplace!!

It kind of looks like it ought to be running away from an Imperial Star Destroyer...

Can anyone explain to me why the "FoxFury MF 1000 Tac-Fire OSRAM Flashlight" contains "NINE CREE LEDs?" :thinking:

i was wondering the same thing.

Looks rather cool... but SO far above my payscale! And 15 CR123 after every 4-6 hours? SHEESH!

It makes absolutely no sense to feed something 15 expensive CR123's when 3D's hold more energy and work just as good... And are alot less expensive, easier to find, plus you can use rechargeable D's. The only time CR123's make sense is when you're using a physically smaller flashlight, which the 9 Cree light ain't.

True, but where does one get 3.6v D cells with high (around 10,000mAh) capacity?

Very soon we will be carrying a spotlight in our small pockets

The Borealis appears to be a hotwire. Perhaps a variation of a Mag-1185 judging from the battery requirements (?). The cadillac holder looks like Modamag's battery carrier and the "Rolls Royce" looks like Fivemega's.

leds dont burn out like bulbs either and you can upgrade :naughty: ,my stunner , im going kiss and dont wanna worry about maintenence of nimh etc

In all fairness to FoxFury I don't believe the stunner is nearly as drop dead gorgeous nor is rated to withstand 500 degress for 30 minutes. I do not want to be the taxpayer in the county who buys the batteries for the thing tho.
If those are cree's in there and they're using 15 batteries you'd think they could get more lumens out of it. Maybe they are fibbing or are putting low bins in there?
I think this light is a pretty good value compromise:

and will likely be the next light I buy. Stay away from it, it's mine.
I know you guys, once you see a good thing they disappear like crazy.

please get it and review!!! :huh:

This thing is going to look a little silly when XR-E R bins show up and 1000lm is just a matter of 4 or 5 emitters.

Nice light but not for me, I think I would go for the P4 Stunner

The FoxFury is one serious looking light. I LIKE IT! but as everyone has stated, P4 Stunner makes more sense.
