I run silverstar bulbs, for twenty bucks a piece they are a steal. They're one notch short of airplane lights, more than bright enough. I also did the modification allowing the auxiliary lamps to run in conjunction with the high beam. When i replaced the auxiliary bulbs i used a higher wattage i think it went from 27 to 37 or thereabouts. This is one of the best and cost effective upgrades ive made on my bike. The stock lighting was very poor and now my lighting is fantastic.

I also have the BAL-1 and not only is it a Bright *** light this light KICKS ***!!!
It definitely makes your presence known on the road, just as a tail light it is SUPER BRIGHT as a brake light this REALLY GETS ATTENTION!!! Just yesterday I was traveling down the road and had a semi start to get a little close for comfort, I gave the BAL a tap and he backed off AND stayed back, until he was able to get along side of me. The he couldn't get his window down fast enough LOL, he asked " is that a HD tailight??? that thing is bright and when you hit the brake it really got my attention" I told him it was a Bright *** light to which he said "yes it is but who makes it??? HD ??? " I told him " No it is made by a company called Bright *** Lights " and he is now ordering one for his Dyna LOL.
Ever feel like you were in "Who's on first?"
The ONLY problem I see with the Bright *** light is it can make you over confident with keeping the people behind you from hitting you. You STILL NEED to be WATCHING BEHIND YOU !!!!!!!!!!
Just because you have the super brake light from hell lol does not mean you won't be hit, but it SURE DOES HELP PREVENT IT.
OOPS I forgot, yeah at a price of $200 it is costly, BUT if it makes my trip safer make my presence known - it is PRICELESS.
Don't believe me? Just price your hospital bills and Harley Davidson repair bills from being hit - that is if you live....

They do. I also saw this light at a dealer and it blew me away. When I got home I fired off am email to Bright *** Lights asking about a smoke lens version. This is their reply:
Thank you for the inquiry. We only make a smoke Laydown style (H-D doesn't
make a smoke square back).
BAL-3 series is available by special order by phone right now. BAL-3S is a
smoke laydown, no tag light and a BAL-3ST is the smoke laydown with a tag
light. The S is for smoke, T for tag light if needed. This model will be
available on the web shortly (hopefully by end of the week) or you can order
by phone. There is a lead time on them right now until full production
starts. MSRP is $249.95.
Hope this answered your question. If not please respond back or give us a
call.
Sincerely,
BAL Technical Support
