I added front and rear light bars over the weekend. Also put in an accessory bus/block for future projects... Took far longer than it should have but I am happy with the results!

Essentially the two bars draw the approx. 170 watts (a little less than three 60 watt incandescent bulbs.)Nice job ! What type of light bars did you use. I want to do the same thing but don't know how many watts I need. I would be using them for snow plowing.

I bought a 14 incher from Harbor Freight (not listed on their website for some reason). That one I pointed forward as I figured I had headlights and this would just be augmenting what I already had. I had to buy the wiring harness separately. Both the light and the harness seem really well made. Bar and harness was 112.

I was going to buy a 22 incher at Harbor Freight but they were out of stock. So I found one with comparable lumen output one on Amazon that was well reviewed and picked it up. it was considerably cheaper and came with a pair of pod lights and a harness. Will probably install the pods somewhere else-like the boat. The lights seem solid and the harness was fine, but I liked the Harbor freight one better. Will see how they last. Cost was $56

All in it ran me a little over 200. probably 220 as I ran the wires thru that plastic flexible conduit stuff.
I put a 20" light bar on my ROPS and while it lights up a huge area, it also lights up the back of my glasses making it hard to see! The coming roof project and mounting the light forward will cure the problem.I added front and rear light bars over the weekend. Also put in an accessory bus/block for future projects...
