Hi christopher
Its on its way licked the envelope myself. Na only messing some courier will
deliver it to you. I dont know if like you said you got all the e-mails. I
contacted the guy because the bulbs he is giving with the unit are
80/75watts x 2 = 160 watts. Yet the unit only says 130 watts. Would it be
130extra watts on top of what you already have cause if as some of us are
doing, running 2x 100 watts well thats 200 watts well above what this unit
is for.
Maybe it boosts the power by an extra 130 watts, hense its called a booster
unit.
Also the bulbs that are with this thing are supossed to be heat resistant
which may help.
I know im clutching at straws but what the hell its all I have. Have fun.

We've been having ISP / Outlook exchange server problems, so my email
has been a disaster area since Monday, but now - hopefully - sorted out.
(If you think Toyota are difficult try Microsoft! For the technically
minded we've had to turn down the MTU value of the network card to get
my machine to talk to the server. Why? Who knows!)
Anyway, hopefully you've got my reply to your personal email giving my
address, but if you haven't let me know. And:
- Yes, by all means get it sent to me.
- I will undertake to get it to work, and add any wiring that may be
needed.
- I'll then send it to you.
We can worry about cost later. I'm curious to see it anyway as a
possible solution to myself, so you will be doing me a favour.
Regarding wattage: having searched online for similar units they all
seem to be restricted to 130 watts or so, which makes sense since that
would be 2x the normal (legal limit) 60w main beams plus a small margin.
If it works as advertised this shouldn't be an issue since the extra
light you get from the standard 60w/55w bulb will be more than adequate.
Assuming this all comes about I'll report back to the forum what
happens.
