It was at advanced auto parts in NJ. You can find it on their website if you search for spot light. I will add the link to cut and paste into the browser:

I can say that I found one like it a Northern Tool and Equipment.

I have found it a little big to pack, but you do need sun screen to use it.

Thanks for all the info guys.I should be able to spot the cuts in the x-mas from my front porch in Alpine w/that monster.Does anyone know what watt[that sounds funny]the bulb is???

I thought mine was an H4 bulb, I never did test the endurance of the light... it runs off a 7-8 amp hour 12 volt battery, I would guess that the light is good for less than an hour.... I am sure that somebody knows better than me on this. I will point out that if you are a stubby freak the light has a place to plug it in, or at least the on I got does.

I fell off the incandescent and fluorescent bandwagon a couple of years ago now. I am a hardcore LED fan... $25 / 3watt headlamp from target and $30 / 158 LED flashlight from ebay, and that is all you need.... Not only have I used this type of set up with success, but I have loaned it out to a buddy to "field test" it and he is beyond pleased with the results. - Lightweight, several hours between battery changes, and they use inexpensive AAs.

I was using a BAYCO for the last couple years, this year, my dad lent me his 158 LED in July, and he has yet to get it back. I have also not yet had to replace batteries. It is great.
