In the process of building the Arc4+, we have come across a rare grade of LED. I am not ready to say where I got them because competitors read this forum but I will say what they can do. In fact, I will provide precise numbers, independantly varified without a lot of undo hype.
Arc4x Arc Select
40% brighter than the 4+
LSI tested to produce at least 46 lumens @level 1
$195 each
Limited quantities
The 4x is a race car so it requires racing gas. I would recommend you run it on Duracells to insure longer level 1 usage. The software is the lastest Arc4 rev so all the features are there. The housing, HA variations, etc are all the same and of course, it works with all the Arc4 accessories (present and future). What you are really getting with the 4x is a better LED that produces a lot more raw lumens.
And no, we are not "cheating" by using a tighter focus, etc. This is the same usefull beam of the 4+. This 40% output increase is measured in LUMENS not candlepower. This means you are actually getting more light and not just snazzy meter readings.
I will put the first batch up on the website tomorrow and we can start shipping the same day. If we are constantly sold out, I will start putting them up on ebay so you guys can determine how much you want to pay for them.
Enjoy.
