Good LED lights - other than RI

[alangranvue]

Does anyone have good recommendations on good LED light bars that aren't rigid industries? I'm getting a roof rack put on and I would like to have a 40" in the front and smaller LED's on each side and the rear of the rack but my pockets are deep enough to outfit my rack in RI's.

Rigid Industries, Baja Designs, and Vision X are the industry leaders. They are also generally the most expensive.

Otherwise, you're looking at all the dime a dozen chinese leds which will get the job done for 90% of the people that want them.

touche'. I'm looking for something that will last a long time and be good quality. I guess I need to just buy a light at a time until I have them all.

Just posted this a few days ago; take a look: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/178040-opt7-leds.html

...And they're "Built in the USA"! Hope this helps!

If you're not looking to spend an arm and a leg for the top brands and don't want to go with a Chinese knockoff. These are made in the USA, I have a couple friends who work here. The housings might be from china, but the actual assembly is done from scratch here in Saint Louis. I think they're made to order.

I actually saw these on amazon earlier and were impressed by some of the ratings they were getting.

I have about 60k miles and a lot of use on my 20 and 30 inch chinese bars. Only issue is the anodizing has turned from black to a goldish color.

Aux lighting falls into my "nice to have" category, where a failure means a minor inconvenience, compared to, for example recovery equipment, where a failure might mean major financial loss or injury. I'll spend top dollar on recovery equipment, but not on aux lighting.

I'm pretty happy with mySeward offroad bar so far. Had it for 6 months or so with no issues.

Bulldog Lighting is also a name to throw out. They're made in the USA as well.

My brother has lights both from Bulldog and Rigid and for sure the RI lights are higher quality. The way the housing & wiring feels to the light output, RI is better than Bulldog. Nearly double the price better I'm not so sure. Both products seem to be very high quality and I'd probably pocket the extra savings and go with Bulldog.

I have a curved 40" from Zero Dark Lighting/ Explorationoutfitters.com
$450 and it has done great for me so far. Ridiculously bright, Cree LEDs and a polycarbonate lens. Finish durability remains to be seen, but that's why god made spray paint.

In contrast, I dropped 800+ on my Vision X lights and one of them mysteriously failed after 2 hours of use. Their Customer service was amazing though and I had a new light in less than a week after shipping it out. Awesome Vendor and awesome light. Bang for buck though I was more stoked on the 40.

I was looking for the same thing and decided to go with Seward they have lots of bar options and a lifetime warranty. I reached out to Bryan the owner about a Group Buy and he said that we should be able to set one up. I will start a thread once I get all the details.

These guys are good. Aurora OffRoad LED Light Bars! Buy your rugged LED light bar today from the USA. Same internal parts as Rigids from what Ive been told.

As far as China LED bars, Lifetime LED, Aurora, and Engo have decent options
