    Hey guys, been out of the game for a short bit, at the moment I have both the white and red dome/map lights. In regards to the dual color, are the the same brightness as the current ones I have? And in regards to the ones that have two brightness settings, I’m assuming one is dim and the other setting the same brightness as the normal stand alone colors? Thanks , sorry if I missed it.

    I'm curious about the difference between the two models too in terms of intensity and color. Following....

    The dual color dome will not be the same brightness as each of your current individual colored domes. They will still be bright but sacrificing LED's for a dual color function is the plus. Give and take


    for the DIM ~ two brightness option, yes, as I understand it, it will be a dim setting and the full bright output will be the same as the current - if not damn near close

    Edit: also adding the switch takes away LED room

    re-edit: I stand corrected. It will be better. Just do it

    I'll post some light light pics and LUX numbers soon. But you will be very pleased with the output of the new V2's.

    V2 Dual color:
    RED mode=almost as bright as the V1 ALL RED.
    WHITE mode=~2X brighter than the V1 ALL WHITE

    V2 Dual Brightness:
    Low mode= ~75%brightness than V1 (white)
    High mode=2-3X brighter than V1(white)


    So basically the new dual color is better than both of the original Red and white domes combined in one.
    For those that don't care about red, that's why I made the dual brightness. In HIGH mode it smokes the previous V1. For people that complained they were TOO bright, it has the LOW mode which is dimmer than the V1 at full output:)

    Maybe I missed it, but does dual brightness default to high or low? Or does it stay at whatever you selected? Guess I’m asking if I’ll need my sunglasses in the morning when I open the truck door :D

    If I had to guess... it will turn on at what ever position the selector button is left in.

    TOP: V2 Dual color
    MIDDLE: V1 RED
    BOTTOM: V1 WHITE

    Quick output readings
    V1 red. 21lux @ 5ft
    [​IMG]

    V2 Dual Color(red mode); 20LUX @5ft
    [​IMG]

    V1 WHITE 121lux @5ft
    [​IMG]

    V2 DUAL COLOR(white mode) 160LUX @ 5ft
    [​IMG]

    Red is about even, white isn't nearly double like I thought but a ~30% increase and having both colors in 1 is impressive:)
    I'll do the dual brightness next.
