Rigid Adapt 40" Light Bar
After a several delayed release dates, I finally received and got this thing installed yesterday. I prerecorded March 16, and at that time the ship date was mid-May.
Due to QC issues it was the delayed to June, then July, August, finally shipping on 9/2. More on these issues in a moment.
On to the good stuff..Rather than the regular one or two beam pattern bars, this one boasts 8 beam patterns/modes.
It also has an 'Adaptive Mode', in which the 8 beam patterns will automatically change based on the vehicle's speed.
Each light pod also has an accent let light outlining the pod that can change to any color in the spectrum. These are DOT approved, and look super sweet.
I contacted Rigid several times over the 5-month period, and each time they said ship date was delayed due to final changes being made by their dev team to address QC issues. I became more and more weary as they continually delayed release date, and rightfully so. I have several malfunctions and notified Rigid today upon completed install, and they said they will likely send me a new one, and will call me no later than 11AM this morning to work out the details. All I've read is praises of their CS, so I expect this to be resolved swiftly, just sucks thinking they may have knowingly released some faulty ones. Guess that could be said for any new product pushed to launch day.
I had the controller mounted to the dash just under the outside driver's air vent, which is perfect location for adjustment while driving. I was able to snag a few Adapt pics as the sun was setting and a few at dark. I think the amber accent grill lights several on the forum have installed are in the near future, but would really like ones that will change to match the accent lighting I am running on the Adapt bar, just need to do some research.
I will add better pics and even beam patterns as soon as I can find the time.
For now these will have to suffice..
