Let’s start with the light bar – I found the high beam to completely useless for long distance travel at night. With the ever present danger of animal strikes a good auxiliary lighting set up was required.
As it turned out, due to the space limitations created by our nudge bar we were limited to pretty much a light bar. It took ages to find a bar that was going to give us not only a decent spread but also some punch down the road and not cost huge amounts of dollars – we ended up choosing a Korr 27 inch XDD600 G3 light bar http://korrlighting.com.au/shop/led-bars-driving-lights/xd-series/xdd600-g3-dual-row-light-bar/ talk about amazing white light and a great spread but it also punches out 1 lux at 600 metres which is what we needed – we have tested it numerous times and reckon we get usable light out to about 725 metres. Bang for buck it is nothing short of brilliant (pardon the pun).
We have just completed a 4,000k trip of which quite a lot of driving was done at night and it made the driving so much easier – highly recommend the Korr light bar, well priced, well made and performs exceptionally well.
