    Are you running the s2 sport or pros? How do you like them? How’s the light output? Considering getting a set of these fornditch lights. I like how small they are

    The S2 Pros, they are several years old but still put out a lot of useful light for the size they are. I’m happy with them, they won’t be as bright as a squadron but for actual ditch light use and work lights they are awesome.

    Originally i wanted the squadrons for ditch lights but after having rigid duallys as ditch lights before the S2 i knew i didn’t want anything bigger, it just makes such a blind spot for me.... but I’m short at only 5’6”.

    Here is a few older pics showing how much they stuck up with the dually style of light cube, I wouldn’t want anything bigger for sure. But it may not be an issue for you.
