We have spent alot of time over the last 2 years checking out different lights. Most of that time was simply spent narrowing down the field of manufacturer's. We found that many companes could make a light but only a few made one you wanted to own! Finally we found a company with enough confidence in their product to get an 18 month Warrantee. Some didn't offer anything but most were 6 months with a couple good for 12...

In that process we learned quite a bit about lights, one of the biggest I learned was having an aluminum housing didn't mean it was better. In many cases the bulk of the housing, even being aluminum, got much hotter than plastic. Yes, aluminum cools quickly but so does plastic... The housings we chose are a type of ABS/Composite and very tough (see Warrantee). They are also substantially lighter than the aluminum housings.

The look is fairly universal but we blacked them out so they look good with any color rig. We liked these so much and trust them to the point that we put our name on them. However, if you are the guy that feels he has to spend $400 a light these are not for you but if you are like the rest of us and just don't see any value in a $400 light we got you covered :)

Here are the specifics...

  • 35 Watt Blue Bulb
  • Internal Ballast
  • Tempered Glass Lens
  • Stone Guards Included
  • Notched Barrel Type Adjustment (Reliable)
  • 4200 Lumen

We have these available in a 4" Spot, 4" Flood, & 7" Spot. We will have 1000 Amber Stone Guards for Dust and Fog and a small amount of Blue Stone guards for Racing requirements. They will be here in 12-15 days.

We took a long time testing and deciding which to go with because we stock what we sell, we only received 800 in this first batch and are nearly 1/4 through them since the 4th when we released them. :) We have 1200 more being made already though because the demand has been so high!
Thanks for looking and keep checking us out as we add more items, lots more Steering stuff soon ;)

I have been getting some questions about replacing factory headlights. NO, these are WAY brighter than factory! Do NOT use as factory replacements or you will get a seriously big ticket, if the guy coming the other way dosen't run into you because he was completely blinded...

This is serious, these simply aren't made for highway use!
 
Im thinking I might get a pair of four inch lights for my truck.. however, I know nothing about them.

Do they require a warm up or are they instant on like halogen?

BTW, from what I can tell, a 35w HID is WAY brighter than 55w halogen, that is not from experience and only from word of mouth.


Thanks for a follow up..
