I'm considering buying one of these, even though they are expensive. What kind of throw can I expect? I've tried the search function but haven't had any luck. I've got a 6P with P60 and P61, so how does the KL5 head compare to these in terms of throwing ability? The KL5 is big, expensive, and it's a 5W; so the emitter life probably won't be the greatest. However, I'll buy one if it is a good thrower.
Another option I've considered, (since I'm basically just trying to get a durable shock-resistant LED module that throws well onto the end of my 6P), is to buy one of the drop in 3W custom rigs for Surefire heads that I've seen advertised in the B/S/T forum. I remember seeing one recently advertised by tylerdurden. Does anyone here have any experience with these? It looks cheaper for one, and the 3W setup should last longer that the 5W KL5. However, what can I expect in terms of weatherproofness and reliability? And throw, of course. What I'm really after is pure throwing ability in a 2x123 LED rig. Thanks.
