Amazon.com Product Description
Vector's Mega Sport spotlight puts out an amazingly bright 3-million candlepower beam via two ultra-white halogen bulbs. Two six-volt, six-amp/hour rechargeable batteries give you up to 15 hours of continuous run time, so this is a good option to lug into the bush or to take on a camping trip. It's durable, too, thanks to the heavy duty ABS and polycarbonate construction. The light comes with a 12-volt DC charging cord and a 110-volt AC household charger adapter.--Josh Dettweiler

The Best Spotlight on the Market
I've had this spotlight for almost two years and I've never have any problems. First of all I believe it's the brightest customer spotlight on the market. It comes with two bulbs 1.5 million candlepower each. I suggest just having one bulb on at a time because it still is much brighter than you'll probably need for most cases and it more than doubles battery time. Speaking of which is great. I've never done any tests but with average use I charge it about once a month. The area light on it is great. It's much much brighter than most flashlights and because it only uses a fraction of the power than the twin beams do you can easily get 20 to 30 hours on a single charge. Also one thing I don't know if was mentioned in the product preview is that it works as a 12-volt car plug in. Which means anything you can plug into your car (i.e. cell phone, CD player) can be plugged in to the front DC charger. So you can run your cell phone or something off this thing. You can get an adapter and change this into a normal household plug in. Overall, this is a perfect for pretty much anyone.
POWERFUL, bright and waterproof
I have had both this spotlight and its less stronger sister, 2 million strong is still great.
I prefer this one, first, because it IS waterproof. A big plus for me. I worried about the other one accidently getting wet when set down on the ground. This one was accidently bumped into and it fell into about 18 inches of water after falling about 2 feet and making quite a splash! Unfazed and still shining bright, you could see what was under the water, it was that durable.
Secondly, it lasts very long on its charge. It takes a long time to charge, more than 12 hours, but I do not mind this one since it can last so long on each charge. If I am caving the next day I just put it on the charge next to the door and when I leave in the morning I just grab it and go.
If I have think of a complaint, it would be how heavy this spotloght is compared to others I have had. 9 pounds really weighs down the backpack. But this is due to the type of battery, same batery that holds the long charge. So I guess the offset is not so bad.
The price on this is very not so bad for what you get. Durability, long battery life and waterproof housing.
peace of mind
I bought this item originally for my boyfriend who lives in a very secluded area and very often has power outages.
We have used it on an unexpected night sailing trip and numerous other occasions. All around it is really handy and very powerful.
I bought one for myself and will never need another flashlight.
