The best kind of light when using a msd is a self powered NON-adjustable one. Snap-on,Msd and other sources sell one. There are 2 available from a company I am a dealer for if someone needs one I can get them one,one is a cheap version,the other is their "high intensity model". 115$ for the premium one,70$ for the econo one. I bought the econo one last winter and I'm actually going to use it to set my timing tommorrow,if its any good I'll post my experince with it. It uses 2 d cell batteries and you don't have to pizz around trying to find a spot to power it from your motor,Smitty

I use the proform Self powered unit. It works well and have changed the batteries only recently after apx 2 years of use.
Very durable, and the clip is so easy to use.
I was tired of playing around with battery cables etc.
I got lacerated pretty good once the wires got caught in the belts, in a tight engine compartment. This has been dropped and has an extruded aluminum housing that helps make it light and tough. BBB
