The searchlight headlight is an extremely convenient fixture that allows you to illuminate distant objects with a bright beam. It is noteworthy that it is able to "break through" even through the thickest fog.
A feature of this device is the absence of a diffuser, so it directs a beam of light to the right place. Thanks to its narrow focus, the searchlight headlight is able to illuminate objects at a considerable distance in any weather conditions. The main difference from the spotlight is the presence of a rotary mechanism.
It should be noted that headlights of this type are extremely popular among people of various professions. For example, they can be useful to police and search teams, because these lighting devices are best suited for finding objects and subjects located at a considerable distance in poor visibility.
A spotlight spotlight is also very popular among hunters and fishermen. The reason is understandable - the large range of lighting and the ability to blind the illuminated object. Its last property is very convenient when hunting: until the stunned animal comes to its senses, the hunter will have time to shoot him.
In addition, the installation of this device on off-road vehicles is very convenient, since no
daylight will be able to create a similar visibility
. Another thing is that it is forbidden to use this lighting device in the settlements and on the roads, as it can blind pedestrians and other drivers, which will lead to an accident. The headlamp finder can only be used when driving on the road, the exception is service vehicles equipped with
flashing beacons and special
sound signals.
Since such headlights are prohibited for free installation on personal vehicles, it is very difficult to purchase them in a store, but at a reasonable price it is not at all possible. But there is a way out - they can be done independently.
Radical tuning of a headlight or a large lantern allows you to get a full-fledged finder that is in no way inferior to a store one. True, to make it, you need to purchase several parts and be able to connect them together. But the result is worth it.
So, to make the spotlight finder yourself, you will need the following elements: a
xenon lamp, its corresponding ignition unit, sealant, a body from the headlight or a lamp (the main thing is that it contains a reflector), the cigarette lighter plug, mounting wire, glue, washers for adjustment, hot melt glue and wire 2x1.5.
The ignition block is placed in the housing ; the mounting wire is fixed with the help of hot melt-glue. The spring, which used to fix a conventional light bulb, is adjusted to xenon, the unit is connected to the battery, the lamp is inserted, and the focus is adjusted using washers. When using the headlight on a car, it can be connected not to the battery, but to the cigarette lighter.
Now it remains to assemble the housing and seal it. After that, the searchlight headlight can be used for its intended purpose! With careful operation, it will serve its owner for many years.
