I've had lights on my Jeeps since 1975. We always referred to them as "The Portable Sun".005(2).thumb.JPG.a500e0263e8f4ee2f1c70f7addddefe9.JPG

Many years ago (we're talking the late 1970s), SEOEMS Station 01 Athens had a set of Aircraft Landing Lights on the front bumper in addition to the issue Cibie fogs.

Brother Al called them "Beegalights."

A State Trooper pulled nose to nose with the squad at an accident scene ... to his regret ... it seems the landing lights melted two sizable holes in his plastic front bumper ... the man was not amused ...

In the mid 80s a buddy of mine had three aircraft landing lights on the push bar on his Bronco. He said he couldn't run them very long as they drained too much juice, never confirmed that, BUT, one night I was riding with him and an oncoming car refused to turn off his brights, so Scott powered up those burning beacons. The oncoming car dang near went off the road from being blinded. Told him maybe those things were a bad idea...

I've been known to do similar things with a similar reaction from the other guy. That's why we called them the Portable Sun.

That's almost half a century.
