    LED Light Bars

    OK Im about to have a look at putting some LED Light Bars on the Disco, I'm thinking of fitting one where you would put regular driving lights, ive seen these at night on another 4x4and they are well quite extreme. Theirs some available on ebay and the light output is fantastic. May run one uptop too but just for off road only. Ill post some pics too, but not sure if here or in the disco thread would be better. Anyone used these so far?

    I had a look at them but I cant quite work out the Legality of them.
    Lights are supposed to be mounted in pairs-these are obviously one big unit.
    Are the individual LED's counted as lights?

    G,day, I just put a 40 inch Baja Designs light bar up on the heavy duty unistrut type bar on the roof. I tried it on the highway out west a couple of times since installation. The first time I had the headlights on high beam and the 100watt halogen IPF spotties on....... then I turned on the light bar, well I may as well have turned everything else off (which I did, just to try it) as it seemed as though the other lights weren't doing anything!

    I must say that while the other lights were put to shame the light bar only had about the same distance penetration as the halogen spotties and even though I have never seen Hid spotties in action personally, I believe a good set of Hid's would outperform the light bar for distance easily.

    But the light from the bar just seems to go everywhere. I will really only be using it for offroad adventures anyway and it should do a fantastic job.

    Just my experience so far. The led's will only keep getting better, and cheaper.

    Cheers
    Mikey

    I am assuming they comply with ADR's, as a single light bar.

    as long as hooked up to operate only when headlights are on high beam I cannot see any problems, but ask manufacturer (or retailer) for ADR approval proof!

    Photos I've seen of them in operation are very impressive! they also have a low sleek profile meaning they wont affect the aerodynamics of a landy !!!!!!
