Just a quick PIREP on my Duckworks Dual HID light system.
We installed two Duckworth 35 Watt HID lights and a Wig/Wag controller to the leading edges of our -10. In the short time we have been flying I have had A LOT of people (strangers) come up to me and tell me how bright & noticeable they in full daylight. I remember seeing my neighbor’s Pilatus swoop in to our filed with his HID’s a blazing and I had to have them. Also of note several people thought my plane was much larger because of the spread of the lights (?). For the record no wing extension mods!.
Since their introduction I believe there are less expensive choices available but regardless I am extremely happy with the firepower of the dual HID’s and think it’s one of the least expensive safety options you can add to their build. Seeing is the key to avoiding.

Note: Lights are not on, that is just the suns reflection.
