The light bar would be great for a cabin cruiser or salmon boat trying to work it's way past a jetty into a harbor. Gimbal mounted with counter-weight.
On a more serious vein, the small square CREE six emitter (3 watts each) CREE lamps, rated 18-watts but actually consuming 13 are damned near as bright as a single 6013 halogen headlight. I am using specialty light diffuser panels to spread this light in floodlight fashion over a wider area. Absolutely incredible amount of light for ONE SINGLE AMPERE 12 volts. I love to see rig porch lights that give 5% of their emitted light downward where it does something. One single 18-watt CREE light with diffuser would equal about 20 standard porch lights.
