I just received a pair of Vision X Solstice LED lights as a birthday present, and I'm considering the running options on my XTZ. I got one wide and one spot beam.

As we know, the XTZs main beam is pretty poor, the dip isn't bad. My initial thought was to set them up so that the wide is on with the dip/running light, and the spot comes on with main beam. The problem with the existing main beam however is that it's too pencillike, and not broad enough, so adding an additional spot to it is unlikely to solve a problem. Can those with knowledge of this bike and these lights please chime in with their experiences, and how they set their lights up? I'd like to be able to do this and get it right first time, rather than having a cut, splice, solder etc time and again until I find the right configuration.

The end goal is to have better night illumination and, if possible, better daytime visibility too, without dazzling other road users.

Cheers, Rich.
