I had a friend who put airplane landing lights on the front of his toyota P/U. Those things would light up for miles. Maybe we could find some of those.

I had the five inch as the high beams in my 69 Grand Prix. You could see a deer from a mile away. IIRC they were over a million candle power each.

Yeah, I had a pair of landing lights mounted in the hull of my old fishing boat. I could light up the intercoastal for about a mile at night and fly along at full throttle with no worries.

Where can I get such a creature? The lights, not the deer...
