    I bought this Kawell 7.5in 36W Amber/White Light Bar that I plan on using as my chase light. It is operated with a key-chain style remote control. It has 4x modes for both the Amber and White and then there is a "ninth mode" to where both the Amber/White come ON with each of their modes and it alternates. If there is a key combination, I have yet to figure that out, but I don't think there is because I've already tried and it doesn't appear to do anything different?

    Anyways, pretty neat little light bar. I should DUMP WATER on it to see if it is truly "water proof", LOL!!! :eek::D:rofl:

    Yes it is. I just haven't figured and/or settled on a mounting bracket for it yet? :confused::annoyed::facepalm: Just yesterday I was putting it up against the truck and "visualizing" a mounting bracket. I want to finally install the thing before the next outing for sure. I really only plan on using it in dusty conditions, but the White (solid) is, most definitely, good for a back-up light as well. Yes, it is pretty bright.

    That thread will get locked up soon.:laugh:If you look at the majority of all wheel manufacturers they all copy one another with minimal design changes.This has been going on for forever.There's just simply to many of the same looking designed wheels out there on the market.

    Ya. Not to mention all the other companies who make very similar wheels. I think the big issue is that they're both TW vendors. And TW has a bunch of hate crazed bafoons

    I think they just thread banned him? I'll go check to see if the account is banned too. If so that's really fucked up

    Woooow..only 2 pages in, and all I see are a bunch of babies! As stated above, I understand where the complaints are coming from, but really? Is ALL of that really necessary?

    Was VTX a vendor listed before? If so it's gone now.

    I get it. Honestly I feel like there is only so many wheels you can make. Most of the time people copy people subtlety. I think the main problem was how blatant VTX copies were, while also marketing to the same group, shit is about to go down with that.
