    You hear "he says" a lot with random "vendors." Warranties don't mean shit unless the company backing them up are good.

    I guess that's true, oh well, I'm not the one to risk it.

    Look at the size of the heatsinks on a 30" light bar (~150w), then look at the size of the heatsinks on that 100w pod. High output LEDs put off a LOT of heat and need appropriate amount of cooling.

    Wait til a vendor on here offers up a group buy for a 30-40" light bar and jump on it. It'll be cheaper than those two home made things, have a warranty from a company that actually has some business history, and it'll last longer because the majority of the vendors stuff uses CREE leds (best in the business) and that guy is using a $10 led from ebay.

    If Facebook would load I'd show you what he uses. I'm pretty positive it's 100% legit good lights.

    Why not get a 30" light bar and mount it in the bumper
    DSCF1951_zps5d3c7008_19bcb4a34067f9016071bfa423dc209a085ec50c.jpg

    Going to be about the same output but cost $200 less.

    Why are you so against all my wants ;). Light bars and shiz are probably 2 or 3 things down the list.

    I'm not. But I know you can't afford to just throw money at homebrew overpriced LEDs, so I offered a better, cheaper option.
