Rear Light

[hartsjc]

Michael,

Thank you for the ideas. Right now I am leaning toward using 3 lights. 1 on each side facing forward (Trapizoid lights) and a flood light in the middle facing back. Then, I won't have to worry about being able to move it. I think it will be much easier to find a switch that lets me choose which light. Plus, I will be less likely to burn myself since I won't be moving the light.

But, I may change my mind if find something good (going to have to give that fish finder idea some thought).

Thanks again.
/James

OK, last shot, from off-angle at the rear. Now be carefull with these things - they are much brighter then high beams and will blind all those yuppies and yuffies you have over there. Heck - they tend to speed up when confused and may drive right into you. {Yuffy - Young Urban Failure, tend to outnumber the other type}.

Andy, That is one nice setup. I think youre camera did really good. Now all you need is one of them police car flashers hooked into them lights to really confuse them yuffies/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Bird, thank you for the pics.

AndyR - Great lights and pics! As I tell folks when explaining why I'm putting 10 high-powered LED lights on the EF-5: If somebody hits me, I want it to be because I blinded them, not because they didn't see me... /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

You don't have anymore snow than I.
You got to admit compare to last winter this is great /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif but winter ain't over yet I fear /w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif and thats great lighting for night snow removeal.

Re: New Canopy light setup

Thanks, the lights make a huge difference. Yes this has been a mild winter so far... I have to go away for a week for a trade show in February - wouldn't surprise me if winter makes up for lost time then.
