Kevin,
Best way to describe the output of the bigger LED bars, and Great Whites, is to imagine you have an area the size of a
football field(sorry, not AFL), of
bright, white light travelling in front of your vehicle. At higher speeds, or on outback roads, they might lack some distance.
The "colour" of the light helps to reduce eyestrain, and fatigue(my opinion), an important factor if you're doing a lot of night driving. Only thing is they're so
bright, that you usually have to dip your lights much earlier. Last night, west of Mt Isa, I dipped the lights, and it was 6kms until I passed the oncoming car.
Have been using a 24" light bar for a few years, and have 2 Hella 4000's, with HID inserts, to assist the light bar, on my Landcruiser ute. Have seen quite a few ute's getting around with about 30" bars on the roof, so they are getting popular.........as long as they remember where the dip switch is:-))
