The third is the beam spread, I positioned the bike 15 ft from my garage door with a garbage can, with a yard stick in front for a size comparison.

For these pictures I used 8 AA batteries for the TIR3, and 2 fresh AA in the LD1000.

I've actually been using a 9v to drive the Whelen, it's not quite as bright but I'm curious how long it would last. So far 12 hrs.



SWEET!
