I am seeking some member views on what is considered to be the best spot lights for 4 wheel drives on main roads at night. On previous cars, pre LED lights, I have used the largest Cibie Super Oscars with two long and two short range lights. These were awesome (following an alternator upgrade!!) but I am not even sure if you can buy these anymore. They used to throw light about a kilometer down the road and also sideways about 45 degrees each side. I used to joke that I could burn the paint off the sides of any truck that flashed its lights!
Anyway, anecdotes aside, are there LED or similar lights that can match these sorts of specs. I have seen many ads on the web for LEDs used at night but they don't look anywhere near as good as the Cibies I used to use on many vehicles. Mind you these Cibies were not for 4 wheel drive use and cracked easily when stones hit them. I did use plastic, see through covers for a while but these affected the light output.
I have a large ECB roo bar so space is not really a problem.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards
David
