Here's a sneak peak at the new HID light from the Jet Lites. I just got it and I took a few pics. It looks awesome so far. The light is 13 watts so I think that makes it the most powerful US HID light. Everybody else is at 12 watts. The $900 lupine from germany is 16 watts.
Battery life is claimed to be 3.5 hours but I haven't tested yet. The retail is $410. The bulb I believe is a Solarc bulb. It's extremely bright and has a beautiful, wide pattern.
Enjoy...

The beam pattern is very similar to the <a href="http://www.mtbr.com/spotlight/lightshootout/beam_patterns/big/802C5504.jpg">Topeak HID</a>. The jet is just a little bit brighter.
I will be updating the <a href="http://www.mtbr.com/spotlight/lightshootout/">Lights Shootout</a> soon with this light.
