Are you guys still talking about lighting? If so, I'll chime in about the HID systems. They are definitely the brightest out there. Some people object to the bluish hue they put out, I don't. Some people object to the price, I don't. My L&M HID was an excellent use of $300, and I'd buy it again.
Read this from REI about the 2005 model:
# Full power mode puts out a jaw-dropping 675 lumens of clean, daylight balanced light with 5 hours of run time
# Low power mode offers 6 hours at a still incredible 550 lumens of even light output
Get em. What, $600 is NOTHING, in the grand scheme of your life....am I wrong?
