Question:
Looks like a nice light, however as I do not see any mention of the effective reach for these lights? In a clear night condition with no fog, how far will this light reach out to illuminate the path ahead?

While there is not a specific range that is specific to the Optronics LED Off-Road Light Bar # UCL22CB I can give you some comparisons that may help.
If you take a look at the accompanying photo you can see a test we did with the MaxxTow Off-Road Light Bar # MT80633 (which also fits your 2012 Ram 1500) that shows the lights at approximately 100 feet.
I offered this comparison because the MaxxTow and Optronics light bars are very similar mixed beam off-road lights. The MaxxTow # MT80633 is 180 watts, 60 diodes, 31-1/2" long and has a raw lumen output of 13,200 lumens. The Optronics # UCL22CB is 180 watts, 60 diodes, 33" long and has a raw lumen output of 12.600 lumens.
I have added a link to a video review of the Optronics which also gives an example of its lights, as well as a link to a video of the MaxxTow as it was being driven on a test course which should help you get an idea the distances you will be able to see.
MaxxTow Off-Road Light Bar - LED - 180 Watts - Mixed Beam - 2 Row - 31-1/2" Long
Optronics LED Off-Road Light Bar - 6,777 Lumens - Mixed Beam - Double Row - 33" Long
