Here's the deal. A few years back, I bought a 3 cell Halcyon Scout and my Dive Shop Dude told me it was an LED version. I accepted this assertion on faith.

I have now decided to get another light and put my "LED" Scout for sale on Ebay. I am getting several inquiries asking me to verify that the light is, indeed, an LED and not a Xenon model and I have begun to question my belief that my Scout is an LED version.

I have another LED light and the bulb in the Scout does not look like the LED in my other light. Do all LED bulbs look alike? How do I discern whether my Scout is and LED or Xenon?

TIA,

Mark
 
Can you pop the light head off and gently remove the reflector assembly and shoot / post a picture?

I think I figured it out based on pix I found of LED and Xenon heads on line. Thanks!!!
