Well given that my l&m has a much better beam pattern, better connectors, a universal charger, a better mounting system, and a head that swivels, I think I'll stick with that too.

In fact, looking at the weights too, the l&m standard light weighs 10 ounces, the NR flight weights the same as the trailtech system plus comes with a LED backup for visibility built in. And the 30day/1yr bulb/mechanical warranty from trailtech? NR is 1yr/lifetime.

I'm proud of my F100 camera too but I won't stick my head in the sand and say its better than the F5.

I don't disagree that the Trailtech is a good deal but not THAT good of a deal, especially considering I can get a much better light for a little bit more from L&M. Just try ebay. And the thing can be had for only $40-50 more than the trailtech system. An hour or two of your salary for something better? Yeah I'd go for that.
