    Thats what really got my eye, besides the price when ones like that or almost two to three times as much. If only they had a single bar one instead of two, that would make me try it for sure..still tempting tho.

    One question, does anyone know where you can get smaller than 6in hella500? I can only find some that are like 6.8in.

    The D2 duallys are still the cheapest for the amount of "lumens" and watt efficiency you get. A combined 5200 lumens for $342 with only 50w draw

    Kinda thought you might say that.

    And are likely right.

    That is just my experience. If anyone can find better products at a cheaper price, please let me know so I can check them out, If they are better than RI I will start selling them also.

    Hard to tell from the picture but it looks like they are. Two 50" lights would literally blind you as its coming at you. You would be seeing stars for a little while after looking into that. Not a bad way to spend $3000. lol

    Trust me it was easy to tell when he was coming down the trail. They threw so much light it was blinding! Yeah I am going to have to settle for about a 1/3 the light and still will have way more light than I will ever need. Guess I need a sponsor or to manage to sell a few more photos.

    I sell every product RI makes at a discounted price. My prices seem very fair compared to everywhere else I've seen. If there is something specific you are looking at let me know and I will give you a price for it.

    Sweet, lol just a double check.

    K are the duallys on there the D2s? It doesnt say.
    And how would two of them stack up to like a single 6in bar?

    The duallys are the older version, which would be the ones on their website. The new D2's are not on their website yet. Two D2's will work MUCH better than a single 6" bar.

    Last I heard, they were going to be available this week in limited numbers. I'm waiting to hear back from him on an exact date.

    As for prices:

    MSRP:
    Single-$200
    Set-$380

    TW Members Price:
    Single-$180
    Set-$342

    They will be more like the brightest fog light you have ever seen. Lol I posted a picture of the output a few posts above this one if you didn't see it.
