 Re: lights
Good grief...100 watt hat lol. I guess I should have been a little more specific.. lights mounted on the front of your boat for running. Never seen anthing like that before.

 Re: lights
Buy the cheapest spotlights you can find and gut them....then install an hid system.. you wanna see far in the dark, hid will light it up..... I went with the 3000 color temp to reduce glare in foggy conditions. Leds work great too...I don't know if you will get the distance but the hybrid spot/flood light up a lot.
sent by carrier pigeon...don't shoot it!!!!

You get what you pay for..don't spend 20 grand on a rig and use a keychain light to run at night

 Re: lights
We run rigids on atv's..the biggest problem with any light is as the vehicle or boat goes up and down so does your beam and as a result your line of sight. The only reason I'm a member of this forum is so I can hear all these idiots bitch each other out over some high priced puddle jumpers

 Re: lights
www.customfitzled.comCREE LED 7000 lumens at 60W for $80. Best price I've found, free shipping and it throws an awesome light.

 Re: lights
what about seelites? anyone had any luck with those? also the post about searching amazon for rigid lights... is the 2x2's worth buying? everyone talks great about rigid, but i didnt know how bright they would be. im looking for something that will wake the dead. i dont care to spend money for a good light but i cant justify spending $500 no more than i would use it. maybe if i was running a fishing charter or something, but im not so im looking to spend no more than $350. of course the easier on the wallet the better!

 Re: lights
Harbor Frieght also, they were running a sale on 6in HID spots, picked up 2 for $40, normally $120 a piece. They throw retina burning light literally over a mile. I would of grabbed three if I wasnt on my bike. Been letting me run wide open at O'dark thirty for three years now with zero problems.
