HOOKE ROAD Roof Rack...............Ubox-offroad.com

thats expected. all cheap lights do that

 

I think I missed the boat on the $15 off coupon, but just placed my order on Amazon a min ago, so now the waiting game

 

What length light bar are you guys running on the front bar of the roof rack

 

I’ve got a 41” single row coming. Should be here tomorrow

 

Attaching to already predeilled holes on the rack ? Can you share me the link and or company, currently looking for one

 

Most likely will need to drill 2 mounting holes.

Rigidhorse 42 Inch LED Light Bar 420W Single Row Flood & Spot Beam Combo

Just purchased from Amazon
6 watt x 40 Leds

My roof rack project items are coming together (Baofengs are not apart of roof rack project lol) !

Two questions,
Q.1 Did any of you guys upgrade your bolts that came with the cube lights, I’m not fond of the rust already accruing
Q.2 What did you guys to use to seal the mounting holes for brackets ? I think most people use silicone.

Thanks !

 

I’m gonna install a 44” light bar on the back.

 

I also have a baofeng radio. Those are great! I actually have 2

 

Thank you by the way !

 

I put two cubes in the back, I didn’t want anything obstructing me from putting a kayak if I was going too. I’d like to keep it as flush as possible

 

No worries. I see you went with another brand. Any reason why? I’m just curious, not criticizing

 

I’m planning on using the baofengs to communicate while camping/hiking/backpacking and to talk to other tacos when Offroading. I don’t have a comm’s set up in the taco.

 

That’s what I use mine for. They’re excellent radios

 

The Rigidhorse 42 Inch LED has higher wattage compared to your Nlight and I liked the more rugged look. I also picked it up for $71.99 since it had a coupon that’s currently applicable

 

You sure did and you’re right! Over twice the wattage. That’s interesting!

 

It says 420 watts, but the math doesn’t add up. Not sure if I’m missing something or it’s false advertising
“40*6 Watt high power LEDs”
40x6=240
Where is the 420 coming from
Either way, I want @ minimum 5 watts per LED, so 6 Watts is plenty for me

 

Someone fat fingered it. Definitely 240 watts lol

 

Ya I was going to say that at 420w you are going to be pulling like 8 guage wire for that light lol
