My preference years back was to use the five inch aircraft landing lights in the bright lights of my squad, and personal vehicles. They were over 100 watts each, and gave a great distance rectangular pattern. I would mount the left bright in a vertical pattern and the right in horizontal. Plus a four inch landing light in my spot light. Those were the best I have ever seen for really bright, long distance lights for a vehicle. Back in the 60's and 70's those could be had for only $6 for the four inch, and $10 for the five inch. Unfortunately, the stupid prices of today have jumped to over $60, IF you can find the right ones. (Many are just called landing lights, but aren't.) I have seen some over $200. I am very familiar with the color temperature scale having been an investigative photographer for a good while in my life. The need to have the proper lighting for photos to come under the acceptable boundaries for legal action was critical . There are several formulas that must be used. The Kelvin scale was the way to use the formulas to get the proper light color. That one light shown in eBay was listed to Fit the H6. Is the only difference in the H4 and H6, or some others, just one of those bases that are shown?  Dave.</blockquote>
