PROFYR 12000 comes with a12-24V step up converter with integral PRO grade suction base included.
The PROFYR 5000 is straight 12V and therefore does not require a step-up convertor hence its lesser price.
PROFYR is Halogen. Why not HID or LED?
Despite common beliefs and perhaps wishful thinking not even a 100W HID has the output of the HELLFYR bulb. The reality is the majority of ebay HID kits are just Chinese junk and grossly exaggerated specifications for the ballast and worse still are the bulbs which are best just thrown in the rubbish bin.
Ideally, you need to see maximum accurate detail, particularly if it is a mission critical scenario. You do not want washed out or missing colours, harsh shadows or unnecessary glare or a beam pattern with artifacts.
HID & LED or any light source with a typical 5000K rating is less effective than the 100 CRI (colour rendering index) halogen due to the Tyndall effect of their propensity to scatter light in atmosphere contaminated by dust, smoke, moisture or other particulate. This phenomena is often observed as a blue bias glare or fog type bounce back to the viewer resulting in less detail and distance being achieved.
A halogen bulb of equivalent brightness and volume will always be superior in this regard as technology currently stands. The only exception to this is a short arc type bulb however the extremely high cost and running costs (bulbs) are currently more in the realms of military or government agency budgets.
