Wow, that C8 needs to get out more often, eat lessand not skip its veggies.
cool looking so i say 2 as well, but I can’t really seewhat is going on with all he stuff of 1
Thanks for the opinions guys!
In case someone from the future is wondering, that second light I found is the “G&P Scorpion” aka “SterOPS SRFB-10F” aka “Phoebus Horizon HID”
Clearly these three brands are getting their lights from the same OEM
They look quite expensive
Idk what you wanna do but there are lights like SRK and boss1 that are not expensive (though the boss is not really budget)
I liked #2 looks better, but $350 is the cheapest?? As soon as I saw the price it became the ugliest light I have ever seen. :zipper_mouth_face: And that’s for a light that would need to be heavily modified if you were thinking LEDs.
You are better off having a custom body made for you or making one yourself I think. The reflector in these HID lights wouldn’t work for an LED either
Btw, here is the only review on the Amazon listing for the Hellfighter (3000lumens):
I bought a cheap $20 can light from fasttech that is about the size of an SRK.
Problem 1) cheapest material possible, plastic and crappy aluminum, even the handle was plastic.
Problem 2) even with a 4x18650 body my electronics are too big to fit inside :C
Problem 3) the boss1 and SRK only have about 60-80mm diameter head, I’m looking for 4”+
So yeah, that was a waste of $20…
I considered using a carbon fiber tube for the body but 4”–6” is soooo expensive.
Although by buying a light and using the body that isn’t considered a scratch build and I wouldn’t be able to enter that forum build contest for next year.
Conflicted…
hahaha yeah I saw that review xD
I searched multiple places and actually found it cheapest here for $245 USD: http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Flashlights_G_P_35W_HID_Spotlight.htm
However I’m now having a conversation with will about his hellfighter, so that one is under consideration too and is an extremely well known brand. (seems like nobody here had heard of the G&P light before)
I don’t know if I will do a conversion to LED, if I do then I will be ordering a reflector from optiforms or phoenix to replace the stock one. The main thing is getting a high quality aluminum host.
PS. in my other thread about custom building a flashlight body it seems like it would cost a lot more, since it would require designing, cnc lathe-ing , anodizing, etc… so paying $250 and modding is a much more appealing option.
I’d vote for number 2

Are you like super observant or something?? It’s like you read all the words on the page that I don’t…… xD
I’d have to agree with the others here for #2 flashlight.
The other one looks like a starter motor for a car…lol

Or a bomb… xD
tbh I really like both, 2 is more flashlight looking, 1 is more military looking
- just looks a little silly to me the way the handle is attached and goes under it.
#1 just looks a little silly to me the way the handle is attached and goes under it.
It’s a rail mount for miniguns:
Can also be used to reduce recoil

True, but it works as a great stand does it not?
I’m going to choose 2
