EBay 24 inch $99.00 9000 lumens and if you haven't seen 9000 lumens you'll think the headlights that you have a candle's.

Do you have a photo of these on from inside the cab? What are the 2 smaller ones?

Does the 9000 lumen light draw alot more power than lets say a 6000 lumen. I was thinking about getting one for the front and one for the back.

Mine is 72watts it's going to be based off the wattage of the led array. Not the output in lumens.

I agree my 24 is 120 watts and my 4 s are 18 each. Luman can be exaggerated. Sales you know. Wattage is wattage.

You are really looking for a billet aluminum not cast casing(billet dissipates heat better/seals better/doesn't crack as easy with impacts), a quality IP rating 67,68,69 and a company that will stand by the water intrusion, efficiency usually follows quality (low watts/high lumens)


Lamphauser "seems" to have decent quality at a decent price as well as the light bar I have that I linked to earlier. It is IP67 rated, no water yet from pressure washing or rain(haven't had it on the hwy at 80mph in rainstorm yet and from all the reviews online, on cheap light bars that and overheating because of a cast case seem to be the dividing line of crap/cheap.

I went ahead and bought the 72 watt Cree lights. They are not hooked up yet but i installed the 12 inch spot on the front and im planning on putting the 12 inch flood on the rear. The problem i have is that it does not tilt up as far as i would like it to on the front. I put it on the black plastic peice right in front of the window on the hood. I made some wedges today and im going to try that but not sure that will work. anybody else have this problem?
