sorry if this is long, ill try to be brief.
i want to purchase a niterider dual beam HID with two 10 watt bulbs, one 13 degrees and a 6 degree for distance. i really like that light because the switch is on the light head and i assume(it says it a 4 way switch) that i can have 1. both bulbs off 2. one bulb on 3. the other bulb on 4. both bulbs on which is great cause i can choose between 13 or 6 degrees or both depending on silt conditions and what not.

now i need backup lights.
this is where it gets complicated
at first i wanted the 10 watt handheld diverite HID, which seems like a great like
the con i see in it are expensive bulbs incase i drop the relatively small light, long startup time for when i want to just peak at something during a day dive and turn it off after and just general problems i have heard about it, so thats out.
now the lights im trying to decide between are as follows, and remember, i want 2 of them. just in case blah blah blah...
