Understand you have budget restrictions, but still can't see driving comfortably with that configuration. The spot is bright enough but doesn't give any real coverage. Have you considered mounting multiple 35 degree bulbs instead?
Sorry I forced you to isolate, copy, and paste the link, my bad.

Budget Restrictions? I have GOOD News, I quit smoking 27 days ago, and I am saving ten dollars a day. that money will go for new wheels, and additional lights, and more bike and non-bike stuff generally.

The current setup has a 25 degree on the right, and an 8 degree on the left. Yes, I am thinking about adding more. I want to mount a light on my tripod, so the light goes wherever the camera is pointed. I have the lights on the bottom of the fairing, which minimizes glare in my eyes, but It might be better to mount some more lights *Higher*, which will light the road ahead better, and maybe be more visible to mootorists.

Yes, I quit smoking, and I'm spending money like crazy on other stuff. Yesterday, I bought a small wheelbarrow, one with two wheels, so "maybe" I can tow it behind my bike, but don't quote me on that. We are stil cleaning up after Hurricane Sandy, which struck late October, 2012. I am cleaning up a sidewalk this week, which is on a blind curve. with a ten foot high concrete retaining wall on the right.
