Aux driving lights

On my super duty PSD. I had a K/C light bar on the bumper that held 4 lights. I actually really liked and miss those lights. Where I love we have a wild burro issue. ( they like to stand in the middle of the road at night.) having extra lights to project forward and at a 45 degree angle is nice. Anyway I am wanting to put a similar set up on my EB.
So my question is. Does anyone have experience with LED driving lights? I know they are bright and use a lot less power. But do they project well? I have found 2 pair a lot cheaper then the K/C hilites. So I am hoping maybe they will.

Im running a set of lights from Rigid industries that are LED. They work pretty well as fog lights considering where I mounted mine.

Here is a few pics of the lights I have.

These are a flood light pattern so I get a broad coverage are. Being amber they do get lost in the headlights after a bit. The company I bought them from has them in clear and in a spot beam which will project a good distance.

Here is a link to the company I bought them from. They also make the lights. They do have pics of their lights at night.

I run a Rigid Industries 20" E-series light stick clamp-mounted to the top rail of my Ranch Hand front end replacement. They aren't cheap, but they work great.

the only thing i don't like about all of the front bars they make is that you have to give up your tow hooks.

not like they are super useful, but when you get stuck with a trailer on, the tow hooks are the easiest way to get help.
