    Got a few okay shots of my freshly powdercoated bumper today! This weekend is Truck Fest here so I'm truckless for a few days. Going to try and get some better angles tomorrow.

    20" SR, 40" SR, 6 D2's, and 4 regular Duallys.

    Working on sliders right now because I got a boulder to the pinch weld on the passenger side. Had to jump on the step bar with a friend to straighten it out for the show :rofl:

    Lmao. Well sounds like it sees more than mine. I still have yet to invest in off-road gear. And other cosmetics like paint job and whatnot. Lights came first for me. Ha. But one day it'll be clean looking. Maybe. Be a lot of work as she's 13 years old..

    Hey guys, update on the adrenaline lights that I asked about a week or two ago. Got to see my friends and they are nice, so I contacted them asking about prices and lumens and what brand LED they use in their lights

    Here is what I got back

    And Cree LEDs

    Near as I can tell they are trying to get their name out there. I'd bet they go up in price if or when they get popular

    Also, they have a curved 50" led bar.....price is 550

    Sounds too good to be true. How are they producing 30% more lumens than similar bars and costing less?

    Not a clue, all I know is what they told me and what I have seen in person. I'm probably gonna order a 30" bar from them and see how it does and report back. They seem like solid lights especially for the money.

    And the curved bar was on their Instagram,

    Maybe they are posting the RAW lumens? essentially measured directly from the emitter? And the other manufactures are posting actual lumens? Measured after the reflector and optics?

    That easily could be. They are nice and bright from what I have seen from a pair of 4" bars

    Use to be that you would lose 10-20% after reflectors and optics. Don't know if they are any better now.

    My website... It's in the works. Actual lumen outputs of all of the major brands will be tested and documented. Posers will be called out :p
