    I've had a 30" tough-light for almost a year now no problems, decent price, good customer service.

    Can't argue with a good deal but if you get a chance at a bargain on some Rigid Industries lights they're pretty amazing products.... High price but they have a lifetime warranty and I wouldn't say there's anything really better made or brighter out there...

    The thing that sells me on them is the warranty... If you have to replace a competitor's (as in a company that offers similar quality) light on your own dime one time you've paid more than you would have paid for the Rigid product

    Heretic Studio had a 10 inch light bar for $210 and it is well made! It is also made in the usa and has a lifetime warranty like Rigid.

    ^^^ I looked at their stuff before I bought my Rigids... My only beef was no local retailer for me up here in Canada and the way their heat sinks are designed, to me, looks like it would be conducive to wind noise... But damn if they aren't a cool looking bar

    That sucks man! I'm running rigid lights but I'm going to be getting a bar to mount behind my grille soon. I love Rigid Industries and the quality but $100 dollar difference between light bars is a huge chunk of change.

    To be fair though I get them at a pretty good price as my boss' business partner owns a rental and fleet truck company that outfits all their trucks through a local shop, so we get personal purchases at wholesale prices. So in some cases my price on something from Rigid would be cheaper than these guys

    I have decent pricing on Aurora led lighting solutions and can get them in batches direct but again, my issue is volume so no point in order a single bar at a time. Their quality is SUPEr good, as what you'd expect from a top company.... but as it is the market is flooded with every other person selling them so.... we pulled out of that market.


    The biggest issue for us canadians is that in the event of warranty replacement stuff, the cost to send stuff back and then receive a replacement costs us quite a bit of money once factoring the duty, exchange rates and the stupid ass handling fees.
