I may be selling my Deben 22ah lithium. Would save you a few quid on a new one if you were interested.

I've just sold one of my set ups lightforce 170 variable with a deben lithium 22ah battery to my pall and brought the new lightforce enforcer 170 variable with the battery which makes it cordless so I'll give that a go in the week and I've still got the 240 blitz variable and a deben 14ah lithium as back up

if you put a LED lamp on the lithium battery it will last longer as the use less power, I use a 9ah £65 and with a LED lamp and I reckon that will do 7-8 hours min, which is a full nights lamping in my book. As the guy said those all in ones are great but for a full nights lamping go for a lithium.

Those LED are ok, but find them lacking IMO and don't like the spot so tight.

If I was going local and wanted a lamp to grab to have odd run, then I'd buy one, but I never lamp local.

Same opinion as me then with the LED they don't seem right to me. I will stick with old faithful the lightforce 170/240

i got the 170 HID,

I was out with a mate with a 150, but his white light was dim to mine, found difficult to spot. Maybe that's the trouble people are mentioning when comparing to a halogen for spotting

I had a 150 an found the spot was ok just after I used it a few times I felt that the light was getting dull obviously u get so many hours run time with led but didn't expect it to get full that quick handy for small paddocks an if wanted just hour or so out but not for me ended up getting 240 blitz best lamp I had just like carrying a bin lid lol

The LED doesnt seem to have the distance of xenon and like you say is difficult to spot
