Default Rigid Dually Spot VS. KC 121 Slimlites 130w

Which do you guys think would have the best lighting for mounting on the windshield? If anyone has pictures of the dually spot pattern at night please post. Thank you in advance!

I just did the swap from those KC's to the dually spot. I'd sat light output was very close but duallys win by a little. Also, I like the color that the duallys put out(about 6000k) over the KC's. I also swapped my kc slimlite driving pattern on my bumper hoop (100w) to dually floods and that's a night and day difference, almost literally! I can drive with just the floods on and nothing else. Either way I like rigids better due to the size and power draw.

Great! I was looking for someone that has seen both in person. I have a set of dually floods on the front bumper already. Thanks for your help!

Dually spots are awesome. No glare on the hood and the range is great.

I have the dually spots on my windshield, but no night pics yet. One thing I'd say is that their small size and large light output won me over. I had KC slim light driving lights on my TJ and I felt as if 1/3 of my viewable space out the windshield was taken up by those lights. I loved them, but I like the rigid lights better. Plus less power draw means you can afford a few more sets of them on your battery.

Here are a couple pictures of me driving home from work tonight. One is with stock headlights and fog lights the other is the same, but with my dually spot lights on as well. Sorry it's not the best picture ever but it gives you an idea.
