I just got this at Goodwill for $20, is this good for lighting booba? It had a 12volt connection kit and a thing like an upside down vertical foregrip with a button on top to turn it on and off.

You’re shooting porn with this?

It is very bright btw but it makes my car engine slow down noticeably if I turn it on while running

>>65027822
The black plastic things on the bottom look like somebody zip tied the light to something.
And the little metal wire looks like a purpose built "dummy cord".

It’s under warranty. Try calling or downloading the manual.

Looks like a methhead ripped it off something.

I used to make and sell power cables for these. It's worth about $400 if it works but giant HID spotlights aren't as relevant as they used to be since LEDs are getting better. A ton of of these hit the surplus market after the Iraq war. You can see the dust on yours. Originally were on M2 mounts.

>zip ties
People would strap these to portable battery packs
>metal wire
It's the retainer for the pin that holds the lens cover closed

Surefire only supports discontinued models at their whim now. No idea if they still do Hellfighters but I'd be surprised if they do. You can't get some common lights like 6Ps fixed any more, and they'll laugh at you if you ask about their rechargeables from the 2000s.

Not OP but would it be possible to get an LED conversion like they sell for Maglites?
>>
>>65030097
maglites are shit and no one has ever used one as a club.

No. The entire light is built around an HID bulb and power supply. There's no point, either. It's still one of the brightest portable lights you can get. Extreme long range spotlight.

Mag-Lites historically were the best lights in their market segment for a couple decades. They fell off in the 2000s and have become a bit of a niche product. They have been used as clubs but department policy has been against using flashlights as impact weapons as early as the 1960s. Massad Ayoob made the point a painful blow from a wooden baton is a killing blow from a D-cell flashlight.

>>65030127
On one hand it makes sense, since a company it's going to keep making parts for something like sold 20 years ago. On the other, they built their reputation on super customer service so it's a drag. Biggest problem is some people at the company have a bad attitude about it now. Like "bro that's from 2004 why do you think a lifetime warranty should apply?"

hmmm, who to believe?

happy april fools i actually just took one of my hellfighters into goodwill to mock the retards who kept claiming to find Lockheed Martin merch (fake chinese shit which they would then flip to their followers) at their local thrift stores
this caused immense butthurt in the "faggot" section of the internet gun community (a differentiation which i instantly realize is redundant)
