OMS Phantom Halogen

I've just bought one of these on ebay. Just wanted to get some opinions and advice, if you'd be kind enough. This is my first torch.

I very recently bought a D4R off a friend but saw the OMS up for £100 buy it now on fleabay and jumped at the chance of an umbilical for that price... did I make a mistake? I didn't think it over too hard!

I thought that being as it was a halogen torch it might have lead acid batteries and be cheap to run. Also does anybody know what the chances are of upgrading the bulb to HID might be in the future if I wanted to? Is there an overheating issue, or is it simply down to the fitting for the bulb and the battery voltage.

I can't seem to find much info on anything other than the current HID model.

Thanks in advance folks.
