Gates' Green Force HID 250 Light System

Green ForceIf you're a Gates-head, you may already know about their new HID 250 Light System. Developed in conjunction with Green Force lighting, this durable, powerful system features a 50W x 2 HID light head that provides wide 110° diffused beam angles to help light your underwater masterpieces. Moreover, because the lights offer 3800°K color, your films will appear warmer, with more reds and yellows. After using the fast 3-hour smart charger, the lights'll be ready to work for 55 minutes (if you're using the FII battery), or 100 minutes (if you've got the FIII).

This kind of lighting doesn't come cheap, however. One of these bad boys can run in the neighborhood of $3800 (the FII) to $4300 (the FIII). Of course, that price does include the mounting hardware.
