Tough question to answer since budget is always a concern.

Conventional lights (incandescent or halogen)) are always the first choice for folks because they have been around quite a while and have a loyal following.
$$
HID's are great lights but they do require a warm period before you'll get the max light output (watts or the new standard, lumens)
$$-$$$
LED's are the lastest improvement in lighting and they simply blow everything else out of the water. Incredible output at a fraction of the power (amps) needed to power the 2 previous lights.
Let me know if you want some links to any of these.

Alrighty. Since you are looking for a light to mount on top of your rig you'll be needing a long range (pencil beam) light. these are just a few suggestions, There's a link at the end of this post for all of the lights on my site.
