thats with thoes $hitty little bulbs it comes with.
Get an H1 bulb put a washer over it, take out the normal bulb fitting and replace with a H1 plug. ( 1 min of soldering )
Do it to both bulbs and you've got a headlight just as good as any other.

I've seen that done, but the reflector's still terrible... And a couple of folks on DTP that tried it had heat issues after time too. Only good conversions I've ever seen with these was using a whole seperate lamp and just using it as a mask, that was good.

I did around 2 hours on it the other day non stop, felt a little hot as any light would but nothing to bad or worryingly hot, so it should be alright, and any long journy will be done at speed so more wind to cool it i hope!
