There's always somebody...
Yes, I'm sure of it. It was printed on the box. 3750 lumens each. X 2 = 7500. Can be seen for almost a half mile. I checked that distance on a rural road on the Honda. Made in the USA, and cost me about $18 each.

Not to sound too sarcastic, but are you going to be following me around with a light meter?
Two things to consider...
1) The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse always gets the cheese.
2) Eagles may soar, but weasels never get sucked into jet engines.

Okay, Stig... I remembered to take a photo for you today.

Let me orient you to where I am standing, so you can get an idea of what the actual perspective is. I am straddling with my knees, the rear tire, and I am as close up to the license plate as I can get.

I took as straight-on a photo as I could, to show you what can be seen directly behind the bike.

Hope this helps.

It occurred to me that there is no photo in this post, and thus, I most likely forgot to upload it.

I swear, if my memory gets any worse, I'll be able to plan my own surprise party.

Let's try this:



Sorry about that, Stig...

Ah see that was for the pair but dang they must be nice. Did you post the info where we could buy some? I don't own a light meter but I've heard brightness levels to be highly variable depending who is selling them, lol. Sounds like they would be cool, thanks.

Ahhhh... I knew this was going to happen....

I bought these at a motorcycle shop in Conyers the same day I bought the Honda from the private seller. I don't remember the name of the shop, except that it wasn't a dealer of motorcycles, but more like a "we sell jackets, helmets, and everything but bikes and parts" shop. And since it was three years ago, I don't have the box anymore either. I do know that the company was in San Juan Capistrano, California. Or maybe it was the distributor. I remember it because of the swallows returning, and I visited the mission there when I was in grad school. I wish I could remember more, but again, at my age, the memory has turned out to be the second thing to go.
