what exaclty does it do?

 

[1-tonmudder]

If you dont have a CUCV then pretty much nothing. The mil used these so they could turn out the headlights and not be seen by enemy aircraft when in a large caravan.It's more for somebody wanting to put one back in stock Mil condition.

couldnt you just turn the headlights off?

couldnt you just turn the headlights off?

That would work great until you run off the road in the dark...

 

[Dabba]

So... How would they work so you could still see but avoid having the light being seen by aircraft?

 

[1-tonmudder]

They put out a very dim light.

 

[kennyw]

It puts out a dim light that is barely enough to drive by at slow speeds. They put out a lot of light if you drive with NVG's on though.

 

[Dabba]

ah ok

 

[1-tonmudder]

Did they use NVG back in 86 when the truck this came on was built???

 

[kennyw]

I don't know about '86... but I was driving these trucks with NGV's in the mid 90's in the National Guard. Talked to the guys that do OptFor down at Ft Polk though and with NVG's in an airplane you can still see these lights from the sky very well.

That's an interesting little contraption. Where does the light emit from? Why are they shaped so goofy?

 

[k20]

The light is under that little hood, and it emits maybe.....10ft in front of the truck in a little halo, that I can tell, of course that is in my backyard with streetlights 100ft away.

 

[badger red]

I'm intrested. Will a money order be ok?

Thanks

[1-tonmudder]

What are calling a ''set''?? The ones in the bumpers and the one in the grill??I might be able to come up with another set.
