After waking up this morning the oldest and I loaded up and made a quick trip to Forest Hill, LA to ride the atv trails in the Kissatchie National Forest at the old Camp Claiborne.

Also, that is a lot of lumens.
They say 30W but also says 12V .75A which is 9W.
I wonder what the beam pattern looks like.

The winch is inside the grill area below bumper level. But if I wanted to, I see no reason why not, it's a large hunk of steel.

I am betting the lumen rating is highly over rated....there are actual beam pics in the amazon links and other amazon reviews of the same lights. For $50 a pair, thats $120 less than Morimotos. May give them a try and if they have issues, grab a set of Morimotos this fall.
