Would need to get a good host before even considering that.
Still looking for opinion on the PAR46 TriLite Mark12
I am also up for any suggestions on a bar mount.
Does anyone even still make a no drill clamp style bar anymore?
First question to answer for ya: You CAN get no drill clamp style bars....on Ebay

Second....The Tri Lite Mark 12 beacon is a very versatile beacon for its size and has effective warning power at long distances. They come standard with 4435 35W par46 bulbs, but you'll need to find a Tri Lite Mars distributor in your area to get the 12 volt version of the Mark 12. You'll have approximately 6 amps of power draw with those 4435 bulbs.

The two-bulb, 12 volt Tripp Lite versions were actually called the S-200, and had a different bulb carriage design (round plate vs C-channel like the current Tri Lite and later Tripp Lite models). But, finding those for a good price is really hard to do.
Design of a Tripp Lite S-200 beacon, courtesy of Dcaptain.com:
Tripp Lite also had the S-74 model (4-bulb par46, photo © John Marcson).....
......and the S-75 model, a hill light version, with two angled par36 bulbs, one up, one down, off to the sides of the C-channel bulb holder in specialized holding plates, and two par46 bulbs on the horizontal plane....VERY hard to come across nowadays. This one is part of my collection, nestled between my own 120v Mark 12 Tri Lites and powered by a 36 amp power supply
!
You COULD also get the Tri Lite RF-64 beacon, which is the same size as the Mark 12, just uses par36 bulbs over the par46s, and will draw 10 amps:

If you want to increase warning power, swap the standard GE 4416 30W bulbs for more powerful bulbs, like these:
GE H7616, 38W halogen. Amp draw w/ 4 bulbs - 13:

Or, the GE 4464, 60W incandescent bulb. Amp draw w/ 4 bulbs - 20:

Note: If you decide to get higher wattage bulbs, it's best to hardware the beacon to with 30A relay, matching amp in-line fuse, and switch.
I hope all this info helps ya out, LineSpotter
