I have some pictures to send you comparing the Torch with my new Flashlight. absolutly no comparison!!! 6500 Lumens 75 minute battery life can be run continuous without turning off due to heat! will have website up shortly. this is not a homemade flashlight but Aircraft Aluminum/Military Grade CNC construction under $500. The torch actually cannot produce 4100 lumens, look up in the encyclopedia what a 100Watt Halogen can produce, max 17 to 24 lumens per watt, 100 watt means 1700-2400. but HID can produce 100 lumens per watt so a 65 watt HID produces 6500 lumens like the Polarion's 50 watt produces 5000 lumens.

All in "as new" condition with battery, 110/220V AC charger, shoulder strap, extra o-ring seals and all packed in the waterproof hard case. User Manuals in English on file that can be e-mailed to the buyer. In addition to that I have one new PF40 in box and new CF3 LED models. Accessories as NEW batteries (for P and X series searchlights), HID bulbs, car chargers, filters (diffusion, IR [850nm], UV [365nm] and TI protective). All for sale at very low prices. E-mail me at lp@helminsen.com with interests and questions. I also consider potting all this out at eBay. Thanks, Lars Hi,

I bought the 300 Rayovac LED lantern for only $29 and it is something else. 1st off its the brightest battery operated lantern i have ever used and second it is lasted for over 100 hours on only 3 D Batteries. Amazingly bright, oh ya, durable enough to drop down the stairs. These new LED bulbs never burn out and never break.

I tried different batteries, two sets from Black Bear and a set from the local hobby shop (GP 2600 mah). Results are the same, 15-20 minutes run time. And that is using it in 4-5 minute intervolts. NOT 50 MINUTES STRAIGHT RUN TIME! I test and test and emailed and emailed Juan, finally I just put it away and haven't used it since.I'm sure Juan has done he's best, but it never performed "As Advertised" on his web site. This is not a tool flashlight it's more of a toy in that it's function could not be used in the real world. Note; If my results were unusual then Juan should have made it right. He know all my tests and we communicated for a long time, he know the issues with the flahslight. It was either the "bulb" or how I was "charging the batteries" or something else that I didn't do or consider. It is bright and it is a cool flashlight but even my twin brother could tell you stories how I tested and tested over and over and over again and again...I think you get the idea.

Also don't like that in the hands of a young child, it could do a LOT of damage! Battery life, fire hazard and price make the torch flashlight it a turn off for me.
