Rear Facing / Chase Lighting - Color

[Atrociraptor]

After Raptoberfest my light pods have seen better days. I'm going to convert the two that survived to rear mounted lights on a strobe relay. Two questions, what color have people used? I was thinking one green, one blue. Also, if you've mounted pods rear facing, any way to do this without drilling (and no chase rack)?

Amber works the best and dont strobe it. Mine was mounted on a tire gate so I cant really give you and input there.

If you do strobe, expect to be nerf

Thank you both. Between this and some other threads that I didn't see before it seems Amber solid is the way to go...

I like the strobes depending on the situation... For example I've been in dust so bad you couldn't see 10ft in front of you. Just be sure solid is an option encase the person following you minds.

nerf?

A "small" bump or nudge to get the f out of the way.

Guess I was overthinking it and thought you were using some new slang like the kids texting these days!

What wattage are you guys typically running for something like this? I'm guessing its similar in theory to a rear facing red "fog light" on a euro car.
