So I was thinking of something different to have if I want to use a throw light. Hmm what do you think of this idea?

Nice and bright, but you sacrifice the 360 degree coverage that most want from a throw light.


Even if 360 coverage is not an issue, "throw" is probably not going to happen. I would think that the light would have to be carefully placed and aimed to capture the effectiveness of the directional LEDs.


I do like innovation though!

The answers so far was some of the things I was thinking. Wanted to see if it has been done (should have figured it was) and see what the general consensus was.


Thanks

F6? Is that a new one coming out? :undecided: LOL


No room for the T6 although I did consider a Cannon in red and mount it so it rotates. Hmm JK

Ok, so you want a throw light like the cadet but with full 360 warning?

Let me introduce you to the Pintsch Bamag BKL-LED. :D

What? A mag mount light that's only rated up to 155 MPH? Totally unacceptable! :D

If somebody ever plans to make a dual-color (blue/amber) LED throwlight in the classical "teardrop"-shape... that would be some product I'd purchase right away. :cool:
