Adjustable Offroad Lights

[Kevin B]

While searching for lights for my truck I came across these. I had not heard of them before yet they sounded pretty good, so I Googled. Here is a decent article about the Light Force lights.

I had never heard of an "adjustable beam" light for offroading. They work kinda like a Maglite flashlight. As you adjust them out it moves the reflector away from the bulb taking it from a pencil beam to more of a cornering beam. They are also available with a wide angle filter that clips on over the lens giving it a 180 degree light output. These lights have been used by Police and the Military for quite a while and have a reputation for being very tough yet they weigh only 16oz. each.

I ended up ordering a pair from Dick at Offroad Lights and had them two days later.
The install was easy (lika any other light) and the light output is amazing. The adjustment is wild taking them from a tight pencil beam to an almost "flood" in about 5 turns. With the light filter on it really lights up the sides too. I believe the light output is around 750,000 candle power with a 100 watt bulb (Xenophot).

The only thing Im not sure of is the size. They are big but the H2 is pretty big too so I am going to see if they grow on me. If not Dick said he would trade them for the 170s if I paid the shipping. Sounded fair so I went big .

Having had the K.Cs, Hellas and friends with the PIAAs I have to say these leave the others lacking. Just wanted to share what I think was a killer find, and yes some pictures .
