As for the NR. I saw their 'new' clamp once and it sucked. Good idea poorly executed and having to strike on the HID first before turning on the LED's is moronic.
Lets see if we do apples to apples and oranges to oranges, it looks like most of the 13w lights on the L & M webpage have burn times of between 4 and 5 hours. I bought my 13w Trailtech for $238 with a battery that gives 4.5 hours burntime. If I subtract 238 from 320 I come up with $82. Still not a huge hurdle if you figure it as a few hours salary but still twice the $40 difference. Anyway, to each their own. If you go with the $110 light at trailtech you really do save a lot more.
