And once you move off-axis it then I think the UW is definitely brighter because of the larger lit-up body area and more emitters.
Three? Yes, I see your Ultra Yazoo has 9 like that, I have about 9 in a 12V, 1.4 watt array and I'm planning on working an extra 9 or so LED stick-on marker unit below in the taillights for turn and two below the headlamp unit in a delta for "high beam", at 1.2 watts each. I have a small 12V, 7A sealed battery I was given and a 13.00 charger I will get from the hobby shop to keep the juice juicy. Don't forget my Delco!
I'm probably beyond the valley of the Ultra-loonies but I don't drive and when you sometimes wonder if you'll see what's gonna make you a great-uncle much less your best friend a grandpa, things just get done.
