Hello,
please help me to decide should I write myself or I'll need to ask someone to help me with trasnlation/proofreading.
Here's a fragment from the article I wrote:
"Extreme Survival Test for L30 Headlights.
Yes, it's highlighted in the specification that the L30 spotlight is designed to be reluctant to bangs around, drops, rain and mud, shocks, fierce vibration. In short, to all kinds of influences we usually call tough conditions. Of course it should be fairly robust and shock-tolerant to justify its high price.
We thought it would be nice to install it on a ballistic missile model but having nothing similar around we decided to upgrade a Stampede truck to be strong enough to pass through it all. We got rid of all plastic parts, replaced a flimsy stock hood with a metal cage and installed the headlights on such place where they were exposed to damage. Having the facelift finished, we gave it to a guy who knew no fear. To ride it the way he loved not thinking about how expensive it could be.
After a couple weeks of extreme riding we had to replace a few suspension kits, one wheel, a dozen of screws but the headlights were still the same. Surely now you will hardly ever wish to have such on your truck. You can see it on the photo, they have been badly beaten. One lens was lost. Many bumps and scuffs on the metal body evidence that the headlights' life wasn't easy. Despite very bad condition, they still work! The measured luminous flux is nearly the same as two weeks ago just before the test. Nice result for a truck, does anyone still have an acting missle model?"
