Post by mechfreak57 »

We have 3-4 thors and one 15 million CP light in our group. We also found out that spare batteries can be had for cheap from run down UPS's. We call them portable suns. They make a HUGE difference in caves.
They are less than 25 dollars at Sam's club or Costco.

If you want a small and very bright light to keep on you (I always keep a camera and flashlight in my truck in case I see something cool driving around), consider a [/url]www.surefire.com flashlight. They're on the expensive s ... ompact.

I hate everytime I read about these 15 million CP spotlights. When I bought my 10 million CP, I bought it because it was the brightest spotlight you could get at the time. Now it's not, and I feel inadequate. I have spotlight envy.

Nothing worse than having spotlight envy. Before too long, people will be posting pictures of their spotlights and it could get ugly.

Just keep telling yourself it's not the size that matters but how you use it.

well if your really intrested (i mean serious) i can get his email and the light usually costs about $20 and then the modifications cost about $50. its damn worth it. this is a massive spotlight. it has a stand but you can carry it, plus it has a rechargable Li ion battery. to further elaborate, HIDs are those annoyingly bright bluish lights on fancy cars.

I'm surprised that they're that cheap, too. When I bought mine I paid like 70-80 bucks for it.
