New LED Lights
Has anyone purchased the LED Light Cannons from Vision X? From what I read in JP Magazine, they have a single 25 Watt bulb with a range of (nearly) 1/4 mile, and have different filters for colors (not that that's necessary) and beam patterns (which is interesting). Has anyone tried this product? This may be a possible purchase from me because I like the benefits of LED lights, but I'm not a fan of the LED light bars, themselves. I prefer the traditional, round lights. So, has anybody bought these?
Edit: Sorry if this sounds like a sales pitch to the Mods, I was just quoting some of the specs I saw on the article here: http://www.fourwheeler.com/product-r...november-2013/

Nope, LED is not where its at for long distance forward lighting. I have truck lites and yes while they are a vast improvment over stock, when I turn on my Hella 500s with HID conversion, the truck lites dissapear.

Also not so sure why they are so expencive i have 50W led chips i can buy off of e bay for 10 to 15 bux and they have a 9000 Lumen output so why is their 25W chip so expencive i know the rest of that cost cant just be the housing.

Thanks for the info, guys! I was trying to decide between these and HID's and I'll stick with my HID route. I'm about to do the HID headlight conversion anyway

Adding a set of off road lights with HID is the bee's knees. My hella 500 driving beams have 55w HID in them. AMAZING lights. just remember don't go any higher than 4300K. that provides the most light available. The higher number lights put out blue light and decrease actual light output. As I said, I have truck lite headlights and they are the best I have used yet. sharp cut off for crap weather, nice bright light with no blue color. I have seen the cheap LED bars from ebay and its like they have blue LEDs in them...horrible and no light projection. My HID's just kill them in long distance lighting. I parked next to my friend with a 36" LED light and got him to turn his on first, ok, its fairly good....then I turned on my Hellas, and you could not tell his LED bar was on.

Kojack,
I'm planning on using the hella housings, actually. How many driving beams do you have? Of all the things on my Jeep I plan on overdoing, lights are the big one. I'm preparing to do 4-5 overhead lights (spot and flood combo (yes, I know a lot of light will be thrown on the hood)) and when I finish my bumper, I'm going to replace the fogs as well. Should I run a combo of led and hid for adverse weather? I'm in Kentucky, and it tends to rain and snow a decent amount every year. But the nights are very very dark, and it's hard to see deer and coyotes when you're driving, which is why I want so many lights. I understand the laws regarding lights, there really aren't many people on the roads I'm driving, so it won't pose an issue. I think there's one person per square mile where I live or something like that lol
