It's mint!

Looks like fucking new inside!

The Arc's certainly have good gaskets!

Oh yes, they are brilliantly designed generally, just a shame that same amount of thought didn't go into the aesthetics. This lantern comes across to me as if someone has paid a lot for it at some point.

Probably THE best HID lantern on the market today!

Like these aswell except for the droopy bowl version, luckily most are flat or curved glass here One has lot its top cover though and has been left with wires hanging out for 6 weeks

Agree, looks shit with the droopy bowl but looks ace with flat or curved glass.

they are a strong well made lantern, if the clip comes undone the wind rips the tops of them first seen them in 2003, was that when they first came out?

Have to say, I've always liked these. I think the lantern looks fairly decent and is reasonably well made by modern standards. A pity the ones round here are now being culled for LED. Most are only 4-6 yrs old and have their original lamps. All being scrapped, a complete waste!

Yeah such a shame their a quality fitting. They're using secondhand ones of these here to replace failed SOX now, Arcs probably come from a different county thats gone LED
