It may be as bright but no way on earth can it be nearly as effective. The beam projection on the 10W HiD when it is fully focused is staggering. The beam temp is way off of Salvo's etc but in terms of simply getting light through the water it really works well. I've never seen their LED but there is absolutely no way it could focus the way the HiD does and therefore will go nowhere as far in the water.
