I've gotta ask - what's the upper distance limit of the device?

Should realy do a new shot, as have collected and made/ modded more, but for now an old shot with a 6D mag with FM 37 & 74mm extentions & Five Mega 3" V-2 head; Seven Emoli at 29.4V freshly Charged, Osram 65657 250W 24V lamp, Judco switch,

Bright? So bright I'm worried for the reflector

Its the big one inbetween the Three x 6C's ( one 6C with 4 emoli and 64633,) & Two x 2D's, (one 15.6V 64623, and one 64633 for comparison testing),
Purple 2C ROP
The 6D is a 5761
& one of the Three x 7C's has 5 emoli and AW C switch inside + 50W IRC Looking to make this a 64633 aswell...have run a 64458 in there ...but wonder if the V is to high on 5 Emoli for 64633...need to work out how to drop the peak V off a little.

CA in the foreground is Bob M's and is a complete working, remotely controlled light. It's a "10" on the ten-scale. Large cables go to remote unit in foreground, out of camera range. CA in background is BVH's and has no remote control. It's an "8".

Event is at Fort MacArthur in El Segundo in 2007 (or possibly 2006). It's a re-enactment of the famous Los Angeles Air raid during WWII.

We did it again this year with 5 lights working. Quite a site! For those who like the 1940's war-time era theme, this is a great annual event with authentic dress, dinner, dancing and the actual air raid enactment with some very heavy cannon fire and a WWII air raid siren going off.

Neat! I'll bet that is an absolute blast Bob. A total imersion into a classic era. There used to be a party like that back here at Scottsdale airport. Several war birds would fly in for the air fair and they'd throw an invitation party on Friday night that was supposed to reenact a celebration at a bomber air base in England. I went to it a couple of times. Same thing, with the authentic dress and vintage music, all under in decorated hangers under the wings of a B17, B24 and several fighters. They don't do it anymore and I miss it.

my association between the spotlight and p0weren00dle has pretty much set in stone, even going to the store and seeing an orange spotlight my first thought is, wheres Mr. p0wern00dle?

This may not be the biggest gun out there, but it's definitely not a 'weenie' either.

Another turn?

How about a REAL M1D (papered) and an early AR15, posing with a SPY007?
