Selling a Halcyon Proteus 3 10W HID.
New bulb
New ballast
2 new Power Sonic 1229 in-line fuse batteries
Ran a burn test-shut off the light after 3.5 hours(tired of waiting for it to die!!!)
Goodman handle
Weight is 8.5 lbs. the original light was 2 lbs neg. bouy. but with these batteries I assume it is closer to 4 lbs. neg.

Disclosure: The Power Sponic batteries are a little tight fitting with the wires, but very doable. To help prevent flooding, I have glued a rubber washer to the light head, used Teflon tape on the light head gland opening, and packed the base of the light head with Teflon Rope (old plumbers items used on faucets).

$325.00 plus shipping from 02910/paypal fee if used.

What kind of bulb is it? (Brightstar or WA?)

Also, did you have trouble with flooding, or was the Teflon tape/rope preemptive?
 
Eric,

I bought the light used, not working. I replaced the ballast and bulb (WA). The tape and rope are preventative.
