    I want these as my headlights



    I saw a popular science DIY a while back where somebody made this into a flashlight. Put sunspots on a cruise ship 3 miles out to sea. Not sure what sun spots are, but it was instant sunburn up close.

    30.0 MPG, AC on, aggressively driving around 90.
    27.5 MPG, no AC, cruising at 90 with occasional gridlock. 40 degrees Fahrenheit

          I found it! It may not be exactly as I remember though.
          The official article:
          http://www.popsci.com/diy/article/20...ndheld-sunbeam
          A thread on a flashlight forum:
          http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/...26#post2319026

          The pics are epic. I can't wait to read about it in the morning when I'll have a clearer head. If this works it'll easily put HIDs to shame..

                        I could, but the price tag was about $1800 a pop...

                        All I'd have to do is flash him. Instant blindness.

                        It's unlikely he had this exact model, seeing as there's an $1800 price tag.

                        The second link seems to imply that there's a small market, and the well put together case seems commercial, so there's always a chance?
                        I NEED to find the plans, so I can headlight-ize it.

                          Okay. I had 2 better ideas. First thought was making 2 rows of them in the opening. Second thought was mounting vertically in the opening right next to each other all the way across the opening.You prob fit fifteen or sixteen in there. OH, and then what about mounting a reflector behind them?

                            Still $1800 a pop. But I think I could reduce that. I'm pretty sure the light bulbs are the ones used for stadiums, so there bound to be expensive. I could cut the cost on the reflectors, since my headlights don't need to illuminate the 3 miles in front of me.

                              It's 38mil, mine is 20mil. Came with a warning sticker on that said not to point at faces, vehicle or airplanes.

                              I think it takes an H4 bulb. I cant remember. Pretty cool shit.
