    LED floodlight - 30 or 60 degree?

    Any recommendations either way for a 30W floodlight for camping? 30 degree probably have more depth but do they provide enough usable floodlight?

    Yes, my initial thoughts but I wondered if anyone has found a 30 degree good enough for nearby but with the advantage of more distance.

    Edit: Maybe 30 degree is really meant for a reversing light rather than a camp floodlight.

    What's your intentions for the light? 30w is pretty bright for a general camp lights.
    I'd go 60 degree though

    Only for short-term uses - I have a small flouro for general camp lighting. For $30 a half-decent floodlight might be handy.
