Hi Hugh. I've looked a bit ( not recently ) at LED's but never
found any that bright. The H4 bulb I mentioned was 60 watts low beam and 100 watts high
beam and bright as hell. A 50 watt LED sounds real good. Much less heat
generated, much more impact resistant, and longer life. I remember seeing the
25 LED array Phil had on the bench and it was pretty bright. Looking
forward to what you find out. Those flashlights by DiveRite are what I used as the basis
for my "wing" lights. The sockets in the FRP wings are 2" dia.
to accept these. I saw them in a local dive shop and thought it would be an
easy way to add lights without a thru-hull that can be upgraded to something
more serious later. I see they have a newer 700 model. The ones I looked at
were pretty bright, even in daylight in the store. I talked to my machinist son-in-law about a month ago and showed
him the regular Maglite I use around the house. He said he can make a seriously
deep housing pretty easily if I can draw it up and get all the little parts
together like bulb socket, reflector, etc. Super bright LED's would be a great way to go. Frank D. |
