LED lights with "throw"
Re: LED lights with <<This is a little off-topic, but does this light give a reasonable amount of side spill as well?>> Definitely. I agree with what JohnK said, including planning to order more. This light seems to have a good combination of throw and flood - and if you think about it, it is... -
