I got this unit:
Amazon.com: Kawell® Off Road 36W 12LEDs Flood and Spot Beam Combo Off Road light Bar 4x4-suitable for Off-road Vehicle/ATVs/SUV/Truck etc.: Automotive Amazon.com: Kawell® Off Road 36W 12LEDs Flood and Spot Beam Combo Off Road light Bar 4x4-suitable for Off-road Vehicle/ATVs/SUV/Truck etc.: Automotive
I put it on the brush guard of my Outlander Max. It makes the stock headlights look like candles by comparison. Look in my user area by clicking on my user name and open the album, Moose on the loose in New England. Should be first 3 pictures on page 1 of album. LED light, stock headlights, and mounted LED at daytime.

Price is nice too, under $40. I go to Amazon a lot myself. They seem to have everything and usually the prices are very reasonable.

The quality seems pretty good to me. Only thing I don't like is that the switch has a little LED light that stays on next to the word "Off". Probably doesn't draw off much juice but I leave it disconnected when I'm not riding.

I do... I bought my LED light bar online thru 4 Wheel Online and for the bracket I just fabricated it. What is important is to angle right the beam so that it would be safe to all.

Got a 32" 180 watt light bar from Amazon for $40. Surprised how heavy duty it is and how bright it is.

I was looking at the 300 watts. Good thing I went with 180.
It lit up the whole neighborhood.
I just got it. Next week we'll go deer watching.
