    Stop signs at a 1/2mi? :pokeowned: My 240s by themselves light up our barn at 1/2 mi well enough to read by. I haven't found a straight stretch long enough to find limits on reflectors yet, topped out around 2mi so far. :Whoa:


    Yeah, My buddy was selling them wholesale or at cost or something. Not sure if he still is or not.

    Changed things up. Went with four 6" HIDs and a single 100w Halogen until I get another pair.

    The HIDs are 35w and the single halogen is 100w. Two big ones are KCs and the other three are Procomp Slimlites.

    If I was doing it all over again though, I would probably just do a 30" led light bar in the middle. MAYBE two of the HID spotlights for distance. The Leds are just so much easier to set up and install.

    Yeah I go back and forth on the led vs hid thing. Seems like for some decent led you really need to shell out some cash where I think you get more bang for your buck with hid.

    Absolutely, The new mini 7.0s look fantastic, and there are some new D2S that are going to be awesome also.

    Yeah I need to read up on those. Not exactly sure I understand everything yet. I looked at your how too. It appears to be something I can handle. I'm just not sure about what the difference in the components it makes and things.
