Left my light pods on overnight.

Left a pair of these on overnight for about 10 hours. They got dim and yellow. What’s going on? Do they need to be replaced? Thanks.

 

Could be they over heated? I'd contact customer service for KC

 

Ship them to me and I'll dispose of them for you.

 

You have an actual photo of it? Just curious how it looks

 

This. This is why we can't have nice things people!

 

It's entirely possible that the voltage of your battery dropped too low which is why they were dim. Are they still dim on a full battery?

 

Are you sure you just haven't killed the battery so much than they are dim/yellow?

Will the truck start?

When running, are they still dim/yellow?

Just trying to determine if the lights are actually damaged in some way, or like a flashlight, fading with a fading battery.

 

Sure I’ll take one when I get home.

 

yeah my other LED light bars still operate fine.

 

yeah everything is fine when driving. Other lights are working fine. I even charged the battery with a trickle charger.

 

So with the truck running, your lightbars are fine and the pod is dim? If that's the case then just contact KC and get a new light under warranty.

 

No didn’t try them when the truck was running. Tried them when it was off. All other led were fine except these ones. I’ll try while running.

 

Might have over heated them and killed the bulb/LED

 

Are those replaceable? Just the bulbs.

 

I commented before I saw the other comment that said you even trickle charged the battery. If the battery is putting out any halfway decent voltage then the light should be nice and bright. Wouldn't hurt to cover all of your bases and check with it running, but at this point I don't think it'll make a difference.

 

I’ll try either way. Thank you.

 

If it's still dim, KC has a 5 year warranty on their electrical components, assuming you're the original purchaser. It shouldn't be difficult to get a new one.

If LEDs overheat, they just die, they do not operate at a different color temp.

 

great news!! I’ll definitely cash in on that.

 

I thought this was a Friday thread, now I see you’re actually being serious and have an issue. Have you checked the wiring, switch, and relay?
