    Yes. I have the spot pattern and I will be taking pictures when they're installed tomorrow. When he gets floods in stock, he will take pictures too.

    The spot pattern threw off a LOT of light! I'm impressed.

    Are there any comparisons between the epistar and cree LEDs?

    13" XT bar with Flood Pattern:
    8y8e3usu_82fa38e5071b591089523f5b33314f101d721262.jpg

    7" ES with what I am assuming is a Flood Pattern
    gatepusa_52caaee5ac609b40807cbe0006b0004c0ab864aa.jpg

    Now both give off a bright light, but the CREE LEDs are closer to 5000k, so there is more visible light than the epistar LEDs that put out a light closer to 6000k. But again, both are very bright!

    So based upon this picture it looks like the smaller es light throws light farther than the larger xt light? That tree in the background I would think should be lit up much more with the larger light if both are flood. And are these the same pictures from first post?

    I see that the ES series has a glass lens and the XT has a poly lens...I would think the glass lens is better, why is it not used on the more expensive lights?

    The 7 Inch is a spot.

    The 13 Inch is a flood.

    _*BOTH are ES Series TrekLights. The "XT" is a typo.*_

    The glass will shatter, poly will take much more to do so. This way the XT will handle much more abuse before failing

    Is there any kind of warranty on these?
    Sorry if this was already asked. I don't have time to look thru all the comments

    One year for manufacturer defects, but trust me, these freakin things will LAST! They are quite bulky and they will take a brutal beating without issue
