    I kinda figured that too but I also read somewhere on this site that people were having problems with LED headlights not last as long as they should and such. It was something like "the technology just isn't here yet" or some crap. I'll believe it when i see it. I've been running my leds from C1ph3r for a few months now and haven't noticed any problems.

    Yes
    Yeah, the circuitry. That's why they have the big heat syncs. Some even have active fans :notsure:

    http://www.amazon.com/New-Brights-L...1428605657&sr=8-1&keywords=led+headlight+bulb

    Its not uncommon for people to complain about the fan noise so some (cheap) try to make do without it and they overheat and the circuitry fails (not the LED itself).

    No...they do not over heat if they have a heat sync worth a shit or the fans. The ones I had included both. Therefore heat isn't an issue. So back to my statement, No.

    Sounds like they overheat kind of like a (cheap) turbo on the trail.

    Boy did I see that one coming a mile away :rolleyes: We'll see how it does at big dogs but I don't think there will be any issues...

    Btw, saw Phil driving a nice new red LT taco today :spy:

    Guy mentioned some fail earlier than they should. I was just saying some tend to fail due to overheating and other flicker when the overheat protection circuit cuts down the draw. Looks like someone still has some rage built up after that ARB install...

    Lol you tee'd it up! I want to do the BD but it's still hard for me to spend $135 in fees alone, especially this close to Moab.
