Well, I bit the bullet and replaced my crappy, dim, not super useful CHMSL with a custom arrowstick. Considering I do roadside assistance, I figured I would go with the brightest light available, but maybe I got more than I had bargained for.

This little guy will blow through tint, sunglasses and cell phones at high noon.

It's pretty intense, can't see my tail lamps too well at 3000' in daylight but sure can see this. Haven't found a place to test it at greater distance yet. That brake light is only 6 red LEDs, the rest of the TA has 30 amber LEDs which are of even greater intensity.
