Re: Lights for 24hours at New Orleans
Keep the lights well aimed and somewhat less than 1 billion candle power. If the paint on the car ahead of you bubbles or the retinas are seared out of workers/drivers/staff, you will be black flagged and have to re-aim or remove lights. A euro style lamp with a sharp cutoff works real well. I use a combo of left hand traffic (British) and right hand traffic (European and American) in the main beams, running 100W low beams and add a pair of crossed fog lamps as apex lights... Its all you need. DON'T forget the apex lights, they are more important than blinding-ass pencil beams that shine way down the track and piss off other drivers...
Really- You don't need to aim them high and way down the track... spread the beams, light the whole track.
