Phantom Trailhawk lights

Well I got a set on the Phontaom Trailhawk LED lights (TH4x1) and WOOOW.
When the package arrived, first thing that I noticed was the box tape:
(GOD Bless Our Troops)


So I opened the box, these are VERY well packaged.
I get the lights out and I love them. The mounting options with these are crazy, so many ways that someone could mount them, VERY nice design on the mounting brackets.


Well it was cold today, about 35 degrees, yes Im a wuss lol but I did get them mounted and installed. Although these didnt come with a switch, installing them is a breeze.


I wanted to wire them up to my stock fog light switch, but for some reason, thats not working, and it was to cold to figure that issue out, so I wired them to my little PIAAs just to get them working.
These ARE bright.

Super easy install, very nice quaility, and very bright.
Overall, I VERY happy with these, I WILL be buying more
After it warms up here, I will figure out whats up with my stock fogs and wire the Trailhawks to that.

Those look nice! Any output shots from the driver seat? I'm debating on whether to bite the bullet or not on these or the other brands out there, I know they are made in USA and all but, still expensive IMO

Looks great! Can you tell me if I am seeing the pictures correctly, but is that an L bracket on top attached to a swivel base so that you can swivel the LED housing?

you are correct... you dont have to use the "L" bracket, just makes for sooo many more options in mounting the light

Thanks for the write-up Ric!!

A couple of things... we don't include switches because our installs have all been SO different. My 2012 JK is our test mule, and I tied MY lights into existing circuits. LEDs have such a low draw that most any relay can handle the added lights. I also used a wireless relay from Amazon (about $25) to keep from going through the firewall. There are just so many possibilities, we chose to NOT include a switch and help keep the price down.

Second, the two-piece bracket (and the light housing) are made from carbon-reinforced polymer. Once assembled, they are sealed waterproof, shockproof, and vibration proof units. We use them on boat transoms where they remain submerged 24/7 with no issues.

We also make light bars using the same LED modules. Not fancy, but very bright and more affordable than most others. If you guys put together a group buy, I'll try to hook you up with a healthy discount. We're a small, family-owned business in Rockledge, Florida with a Military lighting history of over 30 years. Any of you who have served, likely know and used our lights under a different name.

Again, thanks Ric!!!

PM me with where you ride, how often, how many in your group, etc. Got pics of the rides, etc. You're in a good area, maybe I can hook you up somehow.
