Purchased that light bar from
Bright Lights, Vern. Can't remember the model number, but as said it's their 30" bar. Was 50% off too! Worth a look on their site.
Very pleased with it so far(have only done about 150km night driving so far), and it complements the Hella's quite
well. Coming back to town on Friday night, was really pleased that could easily pick out cattle, and roo's, off to sides of road, which had often been difficult prior to fitting the light bar.
The bar has a flood section each side, and the centre is spot, to give extra depth. Provides a good spread either side, up to say 15-20M each side, and perhaps 200M ahead. Light is good and white, but not like the blueish tint of the 6000K HID's. Very easy on the eyes, with reduced eye strain. The HID's are almost necessary, to give depth, out past the LED beam, otherwise your eyes just relax too much and don't look past
the pool of LED light. Not sure if that's very clear??
If you click on my profile
pic, the light bar on the Western Star is a 40" or 42" Rigid Industries LED bar from Snake Racing. They are assisted by HID Hella 4000's. It throws heaps of light, and I just wonder if it mightn't be too much for a 4wd? Suppose you could always turn it off, eh? Wonder if 2 smaller ones might be the go, Vern?
