Default Flolight Microbeam LED lighting

Has anyone tried LED lights like this for regular photography instead of conventional flash?
Its a bank of 128 LEDs and equivalent to 100 watt hot lights and can be mounted on a hotshoe.

There's no local distributor for Flolight is there?
It seems better with the aluminum construction as compared to the plastic body of Litepanels...

I'm kinda keen in the Flolight Microbeam 128 too...

There's One selling @ MO, $85.

Can use this to replace a slave flash and use as a continuous light source? is it powerful enough?

Be careful of cheap LED lights. Cheap lights gives color cast that sensors tends to pick up.
