Seeking Advice on LED Light Bars

[bigbillyt]

I am getting closer to pulling the trigger on some LED light bars for the top of the T4R and I am curious about the versions being sold on Exploration Outfitters site. Does anyone here have any experience with these or care to chime in as to how they might compare with Rigid? My Gobi rack is set up from the factory for (Rigid) two six inches and a twenty in the middle. I assume the same sizes from other manufacturers should fit also. The sale on Exploration Outfitters makes the LED light bars they are offering a tremendous value if they are of decent quality. For clarification, I am referring to the LED light bars they have advertised which do not seem to have a specific name brand associated with them.

Also, if I go with Rigid, what are the arguments for using the SR series vs. the E series?

As with anything else in life, you get what you pay for.

As far as the Rigid SR vs. E debate? Leaving the specter optics aside, the SRs will provide about 75% of an equally long E series. All at about 75% of the cost.

Sorry, forgot to add. Mounting points between manufactures don't necessarily match. Some use studs while others have "feet". The light bars you are referring to are the Zero Dark Lighting bars. The appear to be like every other Chinese led light out there right now. You can easily tell the difference because of the reflector design and heat sink.

Thanks for the feedback

Sounds like I want to stick with the E series Rigid which is what the mounts were designed for and which are likely overall higher quality.

You can still go with the SR series. Same mounts.

If quality is your main goal, then stick with the known brands (Rigid, Vision X, Baja Designs). But if you just want it to look good and save a ton of money, the Chinese ones will suit their purpose.
