Review on πŸš— Nilight 60001S-C LED Light Bar: 4PCS 18W 1260lm Spot LED Pods for Off Road Driving - Jeep Lamp with 2-Year Warranty by Paul Philippe

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good price but a few downsides as mentioned elsewhere

Great price - I got four of these for less than $30. The light output is reasonable and the construction is quite solid. I haven't taken anything apart to see how well the LEDs are thermally isolated (usually thermal paste and attached to the case) but I assume they're fine. I connected all four to a 12v source for testing and they all put out the same amount of light and pattern. It's good. When all four are lit, they're pretty bright. I'm planning on using two front and two rear Sprinters, so that's going to be very good. The disadvantages mentioned elsewhere are threefold: 1. The wires are a bit short. I need to add some shrink tubing when I route the wires around the car. No big problem.2. Mounting kits contain several short screws with lock washers and flat washers. That means both should be used, but the short screws aren't threaded enough to be safe. Since they screw into the aluminum, it's pretty easy to tap a thread or two. I threw away the lock washers and all was fine, but I'll look for longer bolts for final attachment.3. A cable exiting the side of the case is basically blocking access to one of the mounting screws. Nothing serious, but annoying nonetheless. I will update this as I know more about how they perform when wet and over time.

Pros
  • Sturdy build
Cons
  • Hard to tell
