we tested my nite stalkers vs a mates lightforce spotties last weekend, both the same size and same wattage bulbs in them (i think) and mine were actually brighter, and almost a quarter of the price... having said that, i've run 50amp wire from my battery to each spotlight, i think he has 25amp wire running to both lights, so a lot more voltage drop... but still, if you dont want to spend a fortune, the nite stalkers are $150 at supercheap (got mine on sale for $116 |

Stuff paying for heaps expensive lights. I like my super cheap 180mm spotties with ebay HID kits. Total of about $150 and heaps brighter than those expensive things and less likely to go walk a bout. |

ill have my lightforce lights any day, unless im given something else, yea they have a price tag but in my industry that doesn bother me, but i like a light i know will work and withstand the way i drive, deep water trees or wild life, there great, That sounds like a light force add but oh well |

lightforce definitely look better, but as i said, my $150 supercheap spotties outperformed them. and for me, thats a $200-300 saving i could put towards something else. |

Polycarbonate lenses my friend And unless you have your mini's number plate mounted to your bonnet, I doubt its higher Number plate is removed for offroad wheeling. Its a better location than zip tied to the grille like most numpties do

Rather than start a new thread i'll just tack onto this one. I'm looking to get a pair of spotties to mount on a roofrack. Wanting a pair of flood lights, not long distance beams - manly to keep an eye on incoming kangaroos when i'm trundling along camping trails. #1: what's the law with spotties and roofracks - looking around the last couple of days i've seen a couple of jeeps with top mounted spotties, but everything generally seems mounted on a front bar. Is it illegal to have them up high? #2: if it is legal, what's the best way of getting power up to the roofrack position up considering I have a hardtop (ie - and don't want to drill panel holes unless I have to). |
