This or that big assed halogen ilf has, or any of the plethora of 1M candle power huge reflector spot lights.
Their all basically a h4 bulb, 7+” reflector, 12v battery pack and a shoulder strap lol.
I’m thinking of fitting mine with a 14.8v li po pack, and before someone says it’ll blow the bulb, stick your multimeter on your cars battery terminals….
mags,
If you want to see my best single XM-L thrower if your intersted, you can read this.
My EagleTac M3C4 with the new updated driver will even beat my Crelant 7G5. And that is hard to do.
This is the one I have been waiting to see the outcome. The reigning supposedly king of XM-L throw for the money(Crelant 7G5) taking on the newcomer the EagleTac M3C4 with the new updated driver they have added to the M3C4 line. These are manual exposure with 1.4 sec shutter, f/4 and ISO 400 and taken at 350yds. You guys tell me which one you think is the winner. But before you make your final decision be sure and look at the overall picture and left front side of barn and the field before the b…

FWIW, earlier this morning I was comparing my T13 to the HD2010 with some white walling. My T13 has a hotspot 2/3 to 1/2 the size of my HD2010 and it's brighter, too! Still haven't had time to do full draw rests or lux and IS testing but will later this week.

If your car is running right you’ll be max 14.4 volts. At full charge a 4S lipo pack will be at 16.8 volts. You’ll definitely be shortening light bulb life considerably if you run it at those kinds of voltages. 3S works perfectly for all 12v nominal uses. It peaks at 12.6v.

Nope, you just need a 75 cent trimpot and a little soldering, Mine works just fine, see here:
Modded readings scroll down!
I am going to talk about the Small Sun ZT-T13 from Manafont, I first learned about this light by reading BLF member POK here I liked the looks of it, it is very much like the Sunwayman TC40CS but at a fraction of the cost, want to know how good is it? Read on.

The light came nicely wrapped in very thick bubble wrapping, I am sure there were no dings or chips during shipping, but the light did had some small chips in the anodi…

So what I need to do is find a used ZY-T13, put in a 5700k U2 and a 3.5amp 7135 driver with four 2/3A NiMH high discharge rate batteries in it, right?
How much room is there for a heat sink?
Just for you buddy.
Small Sun ZY-T13 - these were all taken on 1.4 sec shutter, f/4 and ISO 400
I just got done taken these. Perfect dark nite to take pictures here with a super clear nite.
350yds
220yds
100yds or so up the street
I will add that those are probably just a little on the overexposed side. But they should give you a good idea.
Your welcome.
