Okay so I'm wondering what are the differences in the rigid dually, rigid dually d2 and the dually diffused and diffused d2? Any one know exactly

Dually's have 4 LEDs. D2's have 6 LEDs.

The diffused is just a diffusion lens that spreads the light out instead of a focused spot.

This was taken from the "Rigid Industries Rep" thread:

To elaborate: The D-Series (Dually and D2) lights are very popular. To arrange them in order from pencil beam to the most spread out pattern we have would be this.

Dually Spot
Dually Flood
D2 Driving
D2 Wide
Dually Diffused
D2 Diffused

My recommendation: I will always tell you the D2 Driving is the absolute best starter light. It is named "Driving Beam" for a reason. The pattern it throws out is perfect for overall coverage down the road. (The D2 Wide being slightly more wide with slightly less distance) Pair that up with the Dually Spot or Dually Flood and you have a great combination for line of sight far down the road as well as your immediate driving area.

The Diffused lights are something else entirely! The Dually D2 Diffused is a light you will turn on and immediately say WOW. I recommend this light for applications where slow to no vehicular movement is involved. I.E. back up lights, scene lighting... These are true to the traditional sense of the Flood light. Visually you can tell these two lights apart from the reset by their bubbly diffusion lens on top of the optics.
I have a pair of Dually floods mounted next to my licence plate, they work great, but I think I should have gone with the spots.

I recently ordered a pair of 7" HID pencil beam lights (ebay specials), we'll see how they complement the duallys.

Thanks for all the input I'm considering getting sum as reverse lights and I wanted to make sure I had everything straight I was planning on the diffused ones
