I use mine every morning on the way to the kids bus stop. Boy, do they light up my prick neighbors bedroom window in the pitch dark.

Went out on a night trail ride with the local jeep club down here in the FL panhandle. Extra lights sure would have been helpful! Most guys' jeeps that night were brighter than the sun with all the lights they had!

I have a 21 inch mounted on my bumper and 2 of the 4 inch led pods mounted on my windshield ( all bought from amazon for under 200 bucks ) i run them on back roads and turn them off when passing others, also come in handy in the woods or trails. My cheap leds have been sunk in water, covered in snow, and put to the test. Havent failed me yet, compared to my buddys ridgid lights there is a slight difference. But not a 400 dollar difference.

I've only used my offroad lights to set up our camping gear when we go to the offroad park. We get there late and it's very dark. They don't let us run on the trails when it's dark.

Towed a friend w/ a dead alternator a couple miles off the mountain. Used the rear lights mounted in the JCR bumper to help him judge line slack and how far from my bumper he was.

Don't know if it help or hurt. Certailnly killed his night vision starring into those lights for over an hour.

I actually use these almost every night as the factory reverse lights suck, their hooked to a switch inside the cab. then these I use pretty much whenever no ones on the road at night to help light up the road since my factory headlights suck. especially on back roads or dimly lit areas

and of course scouting for hunts and night ridin in the bonnet carre spillway

since this is a led light thread I'll mention it. I found this small local company out here in Louisiana and decided to give them a shot. man was i glad I did. his leds kicked the other ones I had butt, now of course I had some 7" 42 watt Amazon leds that were pretty bright. his 4.3" ones I have shine prolly 1.5 times the distant and are twice as bright as those 7" ones I got off of amazon. now of course I got them in when it was raining yesterday so I could only test them out and couldn't mount them yet. yall be sure to go check out his website and his products. http://www.genlights.com/default.asp
