Strobe lights are specialized flash lights with a standard color temperature of 5500K (sunlight color temperature). Flash lighting are extremely power efficient, flashing only once every time they are used. If we put a flash, halogen, and fluorescent light next to each other and only allowed each light to consume the same wattage of power, the strobe light would come out first place in the amount of light put out per wattage used. Specially designed flash tubes have an ultra, long-life (around 10,000 flashes). There are more accessories for flash lighting than any other lights on the market. The variety of accessories available allows the user to use their strobe lighting(s) in many different settings.
