Re: What are these lights?

 Romeo,

blue lights explained.

http://lighting.mbz.org/tech/info/blue_bulbs/

the philips all weather bulb mentioned in the article is now available:

http://www.autooptiks.com/products/dichroic.html

from what i understand these are the only "blue" bulbs
that are DOT compliant.

more info at:

http://www.lighting.philips.com/forum/forum_6/wwwboard.html

use the keyword "all weather" in search.
