Review on Nilight ZH003 20Inch 126W LED Light Bar Combo + 4PCS 4Inch 18W LED Pods - Jeep Wrangler Boat Truck Off-Road Fog Lights, 2 Years Warranty by Trevor French

Quality has gone down

2 years ago I came across several 18w Nilight LED modules. We tested them and found 14.5 watts, which isn't that far off spec, and they seemed very bright. Fast forward to today, I ordered 8 modules total and this 20 inch lightbar. All 8 modules report 0.6 A at approx. 12.8 VDC. That's about 7.7 watts, basically half of what we measured 2 years ago. a light strip made up of 7 "individual modules" should have about 7 times the amperage/power, advertise it like this: 18x7 = 126 watts. Unfortunately, that's only measured 35.8 watts. There is no exact spec and divided by 7 resulting in a modest 5.12w pod. Also the brackets have been updated, no listing is shown. There are now a total of 6 screws per bracket which may or may not loosen over time. Lock washers were not included. Since I received it without a mount, all the Nilights were returned and I bought the AUXBEAMS, let's see what happens soon.

Pros
