It works well. I think with a spot light lamp the light might be too bright except for the rural areas. They are BRIGHT!! I have not tried to put them in spot light lens's yet as I do not have any.
Did you get my email?

No, they do not draw much more power, any HD touring bike will handle the extra load.

Have them on my 05 Ultra.....awsome!
What is the correct PIAA bulb for the passing lamps you are using? Also, which bulb did you choose for the headlamp? Thanks.

04Ultra

These guys have good service and great prices on headlight bulbs: www.candlepowerinc.com. My bike runs twin H4 bulbs. I use the 65/70+50 on the right side and a 60/55+50 w/yellow balloon on the left side. I also run Hella FF50 driving lights that use a 55 watt H7 bulb. I can start brush fires with hi beams and driving lights on at the same time!
