Thread: LED Light Bars....Special offer

120W light bar arrived today, thanks Murray!

Coincidentally it arrived just in time to assist with some high speed camera experiments.

Connected to a 40A Variable (voltage regulated) power supply, I took the following readings:
6V - light starts to turn on
10-11 V - full brightness

10.0V 8.0A draw (=80A)
11.9V 6.7A draw (=80A)
14.6V 5.4A draw (=79A)
15.7V 5.0A draw (=79A)

I will measure light output later when the experiments are finished.

I am not sure how the wattage of the lights are rated. As you can see from the specs above the 120W light only uses 80W. However I am sure the light output exceeds the rated spec based on the 240W light.

When I have a moment I will do the same measurements using my 240W light. (including light output for both).

EDIT - 26500 lm @ 0.5m for the 120W. I can only measure at 0.5 m max in the current experimental setup. Looks like this one has higher than rated output as well!!!

Thanks for the test results Ben, I'm sure everyone is interested in the results.
The wattage calculations are interesting, I suppose the proof is in the pudding.
It'll be good to get some feedback from others once they've had a chance to give their lights a run.

Cheers, Murray

Got mine today!!!!

The way I welded the mounting brackets on the bull bar, the light could be flipped upside down on the same mounts if I fitted smaller driving lights, but I'm happy with it as is for now.
I haven't been for a drive with it yet, but the way it lit up the driveway I expect it will be pretty good.

Cheers, Murray

it looks like it would of sat perfectly across the bullbar on the lip that is used to hold the roller fairlead...

in between the uprights and under the top most opening...of course if the winch bolts aren't there

You totally do

I'll put a hand up for a 180 combo, although I'll probably have to wait a shipment or two to sort out necessary funds.
Looks good

Yeah, never thought about that spot. Might be a bit more vulnerable to stone damage, but would probably be a good mounting position for driving in fog.

Cheers, Murray

Hahaha leaves room to manufacture a stone guard for it hey
