The way I see it, It's actually pretty cheap insurance to protect my family and favorite toy from the lowest common denominator drunk redneck plowing into my boat in the middle of the night. And yes, the thing is nothing short of amazing in the way it's built (beautiful machined / anodized aluminum, thick Lexan lens. Military spec circuitry, etc) and how it performs: Brightest tri on the lake, You can see it in the distance in broad daylight.. No kidding. Also, the Windex is brightly lit at night, the anchor light turn off automatically, even the mounting is exceptional. Also, it may be bad form on a seaway but when trying to ward-off drunk rednecks on the lake, when we sail at night my boat is lit like a Christmas tree with the tri and running lights blazing, no worries about being confused for a fishing trawler.
