Thanks everyone. I actually have 2 of the front light. I picked up the second one for a couple bucks years ago when the store lost the mount which can be bought for 3 bucks. These just go on the quick trip beater. They work so I Figure i'll use em for a while longer.

I'll be expecting a HL-EL400/TL-LD1000 in my stocking from the wife for the Airborne.

I have looked at the HL-EL500 which seems rather big. The new HL-EL510 is close to the same brightness, not sure if its as massive. Haven't seen one in a store to hold yet.
