Factor55 has a new lighted fairlead

[BUFF]

Factor 55 is coming out with a fairlead with two colors, amber and white. They included a toggle switch for the color change. It goes live on their website Monday, May 4th. I live local so I got an early peek and purchase.

I've worked in some really stupid remote places in the woods and had to pull winch line in all kinds of lighting conditions.

I've never once been unable to find the start of the line due to not having a dimly lit LED projecting the way.

If it's that damn dark, the vehicle headlights are on, and I always have at least one flashlight and typically a headlamp.

Being Factor55, it's going to be a gazillion bucks. I'm surprised it doesn't project their logo onto the object you're winching.

Is glow-in-the-dark winch line coming next?

Not for me, but I always like to see a new product in the space - looks a little awkward vs. a standard fairlead but not terribly so.
How much light does it put out? Can it light the trail or is it more of a courtesy/accent light for your hook?
