Well, one of the things you need to just get is that pictures, for the most part is not a good representation of capturing light. With that said, the white LEDs from Radio Shack does match the Orions well. In person, I would say they're pretty damn close. If you want it to be closer, you'll have to order the 5000K or 5500K Orions from Umnitza. I believe those are made to order.

Also, if you're seeing pictures of the Orions AND HID fogs, you're absolutely not getting the right "picture". Simply because our conventional cameras just can't accurately capture what it looks like in real life.

Dude contact John, he's the resident lighting guru and offers great customer service. He'll be able to set you up with everything except Orions.

John is a good resource but we're no slouch - we've been doing lighting longer than anyone
Further we offer the Canbus HID fogs and will soon offer every imaginable LED application
