I recently aquired the Princeton Tec Light set (Shockwave II, Surge, and LED Locator light) for $80 (actually, it was a christmas gift).
I've heard that HID are sooo much better. But a canister light is out of the question here (Dr. Jay = broke college student). I've heard a lot of good things about the UK HID Light. My Princeton Tek light set is unused (so I can probably get the $$ back for it - that leaves me with $80). I've already got one of the small UK mask lights (Mini Q-40 I think).
So, considering the $80 is a sunk cost, the purchase of the HID would be around $70 extra - total of around $150 (from what I gather from previous posts and internet prices, etc.)....
1. should I go ahead and take the light set back and go for the UK HID? or
2. should I keep the Princeton set and save my pennies for a $1000 canister light in the far future?
Eventually, once I graduate (this semester...WOHOO!) and am making the mad :money: (so I hope ) I'll go for the Halcyon Canister. Keep in mind that it's going to be a while before I can afford that canister
