It’s an HID conversion on a halogen GoLight. It may look like a bomb but it’s now about 4 times as bright. The only issue i had was fitting the bulb so that it can go up and down without snapping the bulb. Because I used a HID bulb instead of LED I was about to keep the beam intact. It’s slightly wider but I think the light increase more than makes up for it.

I'm struggling to understand how this would be useful for "overlanding"

I don’t even use the lights I have. The biggest waste in this hobby is lights.

I live in AZ and I absolutely use my front and rear lights because the trails here get dusty AF. To the point you can't even see the vehicle's brake lights less than 25 yards ahead of you in broad daylight. It wasn't until I started going out in bigger groups that it became apparent they actually had legit function.
But I absolutely bought cheap lights though because $500 on a pair of ditch lights is ridiculous.
Spot lights are worthless though even if you're the first rig in a convoy at night. Are you trying to avoid accidentally running over a beetle you might otherwise not see? Huge lightbars are in the same category.

Why is it so damn loud?
