I too have Eagle Lights Phase III set, two passing lights and the 7 inch headlight. The passing lights are superb. They are very bright, a smooth, crisp upper cut-off. The beam is very wide, lights up the road from about 45 degrees off center on one side to about 45 degrees off center on the opposite side. The outer end of each side terminates in a slight upward curve, much like a subtle smile. The light below the upper cut-off beautifully smooth with no dark spots. They provide great light from the cut off almost all the way back to the scooter, they light up turns beautifully, no "black hole" off to either side in turns

Over all, the head light is far superior to the factory halogen unit. The low beam is beautiful, again very crisp upper cut off, it lights about 30 degrees on both sides of the centerline and the light is consistently smooth all the way across. The high bean is in the middle of the low beam, not off center, and is well shaped a horizontal rectangle. I wish it were as bright as the low beam but it is not. I don't have a way to actually measure brightness, but I GUESTIMATE somewhere between half to two thirds the brightness of the low beam. On a dark road it does the job but definitely isn't extremely bright. Eagle Lights provides pictures of the beams from these lights projected on a wall and with one exception, what you see is what you get. In their picture of the beam against the wall, the high beam is just as bright as the low beam, the low beam upper cut-off line "disappears" into the high beam rectangle, low beam upper cut-off line cannot be seen at the base of the high beam.

I have had two of the phase iii headlights and both of them had the same relatively weak high beam, so that is the way they are, my first one was not a sample variation. The low beam cut-off line is clearly visible at the bottom of high beam rectangle in "real life". If they ever "pep up" the high beam so real life looks just like their picture, I would order a new light even though my present one still works well. Again, it is far superior to the halogen factory light and is a reasonable value for the money. You could spend a lot more and probably not do much better, other lights would have diffferent compromises My buddy has all Harley Daymaker lights. His passing lights have a bright horizontal rectangle hot spot but not much light outside of that area making turns seem like you are entering a black hole. He seems to have a brighter high beam hot spot than mine but the price is several times higher, not really worth the premium price... in my opinion. If you want these lights for a late model Road King with the two bulb factory headlight, you will need the pig tail that connects the two H9/H11 plugs into one H4 plug. Eagle lights sells that for a competitive price.
