    Gentlemen, I give you output pictures!

    I went into the state forest near my house. It's pitch black there.
    Baseline:

    Headlights, fogs, and Hella 500's
    yzehy4um_a2083cadacec4f371f8a278571cbdcf50f905356.jpg
    High beams:
    epurenyn_9e32eb9deca5b1e02384ba064620c5d35076dcc3.jpg
    4" XT Spot pattern:
    mabe5yqa_5bd76b32596d17214d49d47a9c008b65f01332c1.jpg
    Notice how far into the woods the lights go. That sign is about 100 feet away and it is lit up bright as day! They also give light in every direction, where the high beams only give light towards the ground.

    With total darkness on this snowy night, I am VERY impressed with the output. It's much more impressive in person. Cameras just can't capture the difference.

    OVERALL THOUGHTS
    The housings of the lights are durable. I dropped one light from about 3 feet while installing my lights in 27 degree weather. Not a dent, not a ding, just a little scuff!

    The mounting block on the light is a cool feature too! With the twist of an allen wrench, you are able to slide the light from side to side on the mount. It is a really cool way of mounting the lights, because it allows you to position them wherever you want, making this a very versatile light with many different methods of mounting. I am THOROUGHLY pleased by this product

    Thanks for all the wiring reply's. I may not go 36" XT. The 33" ES was my first choice but I thought the XT had better mounting options for where I want to install. Still debating. May even go down to 22". Also, about the license plate blocking the lower grill, going to try to relocate below the lower grill with some kind of bracketing. Glad this GB goes till end of Feb cause I need to see about tax refund first and decide what to do about mounting, wiring and license plate.

    I'll agree with ya! Pictures don't do them justice. My light bar is insanely bright! It does throw light in every direction, lights up the ground in front like a fog, lights up FAR like a long range light, and lights up the sides, much farther to the sides than the stock hi-beams. Gives a lot more visibility and makes me feel better about animal strikes. They're very impressive for sure.

    I was initially wanting two small lights to point towards the shoulder on either side so I could turn them on on our open back roads out here at night to help watch for deer, cows, etc... With just the 12" it lights up the sides enough I'm not sure if it's needed at this point. Not to mention all the useful light in front of the truck.

    I stand to gain nothing by trying to sell these lights, just to make that clear. I'm just trying to help anyone on the fence by letting them know, these things kick ass.
