I am one of those lawless fellows who used an aircraft landing light
in place of one of the stock high-beams in a 1964 Greenbrier years ago.
It was so bright that
-I always kept my foot on the dimmer switch, so that I could turn it
off in an instant if traffic came in the opposite direction
-It required the use of a relay
-Reflective highway signs proved to be TOO reflective
-It illuminated the road even in the rain
-I joked that I could blister the paint off a car in front of me if I
were to use the light
-I no longer had to shovel snow from my driveway, I could just point
the light at it and it would melt
-It was wonderful.
Recently I fixed up a Rampside as a daily driver, and so it may get a
landing light.
