The light output on that video HAS to be much less than reality. It's far less than you see with an E6, and by all accounts the beam of an Edelux is as bright as an E6 and much wider. I saw that video. The light looked as though it wasn't as bright as a small flashlight. That's nothing near reality: in the dark an E6 looks like a light saber. > > Not having enough light to really see where one is going is a recipe > for disaster.

And that's not how the Edelux is -- or any good halogen light, either. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
