    That and I usually come home after midnight anyway.

    I do some night wheeling, plus going up to my cottage at night is sketchy in the dark

    I agree with Dave, I think LED's are a fad. They either have to come down in price or the throw needs to be able to beat halogens and keep up with HIDs. Don't get me wrong, they're really cool lights, but weighing cost against performance, I can't justify getting a set.

    The benefits I see with LED's is that if one LED goes out, you still have a whole row of them so you don't completely lose the light and also the relatively lower power draw. They used to have small size on their side but as projectors get more common and become better, they're going to lose that battle I think. Light output-wise, HIDs will still beat out the LED bars. The issue with HID's is you have ballasts and bulbs, so more to go wrong and they don't like to be cycled frequently or they crap out. They also have a relatively low draw compared to the light they put out when compared to halogens and they are coming down in cost. Generally, you'll have multiple lights anyways so, if you do lose one, you still have plenty of light but might have a dark spot.
