Yes your last picture is what the back of my HELLFIGHTER5 looks like and that is the same pin format as my Arc28C

awesome. do you have hellfighter5s manual by any chance? as for the arc2 manual, spare lamp assembly part# states HF5-ARC2-LAMP so we can compare if it uses the same bulb.

I guess I nailed that price window when I said (guessed) $600 to $1000, smack dab in the middle of my range.
If the reflector is still good, maybe they can rebuild it, reinstall a new bulb into it and cut the cost in half.

OUCH! That is a ton of money for a what....35 Watt HID bulb? Even if it comes potted in a reflector.

Lol yea you nailed the price and they do come as a set with the potted reflector. ridiculous price to have a spare though:scowl:
Well I hope my original bulb doesn't go out, but it will at least be free replacement if it ever goes out.:faint:
