PS will try to make the 1230 RV on Sat.. |
I got one when they first came out, still use it for holidays as its easier to lug around on flights than the Halcyon. I made up a bracket to fit it to my Video and with the defuser fitted it give reasonable results. Very bright compared to std lamps and has a good burn time.
As always a rechargeable version is preferable ( because I'm hate buying batteries) and as with all HID - take great care with them! If you are unfortunate enough to bust a bulb - your in for a shock - with the replacement cost. If you flood the thing and have to buy a new battery / bulb and ballast - then your in to nearly the cost of a new torch.
So basically yes a good torch but you need to look after it or you might just regret buying it
