I run and sell VisionX brand lights and they are great for the price 8.5 inch 50watt HIDs nearly 2 km of useable light for around $1200 a pair plus postage I also run an 18 Cell 34inch Reflex bar(even this is over kill far more light than anyone could ever need ) around $1800 plus postage The light bars will never penetrate like an HID however they give an unmatched flood beam good for around 80meters wide and 400m deep sure you can see catseyes and signs over a Km away but no definition. The Vision X reflex bars run 10 watt leds their 5 year old xmitter technology is the 3 watt leds. the 3 watt tech is still very popular in the mining industry as there is alot less reflected glare than the 10 watt cells. Check out the website if you wanna see their full product range.
