hi Greg, i have cibie super oscars, great lights and i like the mounting.
some will say this and that but its a personal thing. i opted for two spread beams, tried one of each but was not happy.
shop around, you should get them close to that price.
cheers shane.

I had a pair of super oscars for about 10 years on the old Disco. They were a reasonable light, but over the years the reflectors discoloured and the rivets holding the mounting plates to the body of the lights shook loose and they were stuffed. 10 years is not too bad I guess, but this time I went for something a little more 'waterproof'....IPF Extremes, but from memory they are about $350. If you can get the Super Oscars or any other 'brand-name' light for $250, buy them.
Also try Lightforce. Even the ?170's may come in about that.
Cheers,
Mark

I have got a pair of night stalkers from Terrian tamer for about $140.
I found them to be reasonable light with solid mounts, not too big (resticting air flow), with a reasonable throw of light using the spot/spread combo.
just wacth the little grub screws that hold the lense to the body, both of
mine came loose.

I have the Nite Stalker 200 series. Paid about $150 ish. Great value for $$. Only mistake i made was getting the spread/spot combo instead of 2 spots.
