Anyone ever figure out the candela for the Superpower? Somewhere around 2M cd maybe?
It produces a constant 4.5Mcd.
The standard LX-70 does 1.3Mcd (it's much more compact).

There is nothing they can do which would substantially increase performance. I guess they could ar-coate the lens for an extra 5-6% output.
UHP bulbs can't be used in a production light. Also they would have a much slower startup and reduce runtime or brightness (they are less efficient).
A more powerful metal halide bulb would be possible, but again less runtime and much slower startup.
So U.S. customers interested in the Superpower still have to purchase from Lemax. I didn't realize XeVision doesn't sell that version... I just check the website.
My comment about waiting for the LX100 was in jest.
Dan, what was the 250-Watt light going to be back a few years when you posted sort of an interest gathering post?
Could you also put the Ultra ballast in the LX50 II? :devil:
