Auxbeam LED Light Bar 4" 18W LED Pods Flood Beam Off Road Lights

I purchased the 4pc set and I've gotta say I was impressed. To start off I will say that I highly recommend sealing the lens of these, mainly on top and bottom. Mine had about 1/8" void between the black casing and the lens. Not saying they would have leaked or gotten moisture in them but I would personally rather not take the chance. The packaging was a plain brown box and the lights themselves were in foam surrounds so I don't believe that under normal circumstances anything could happen to them. The lights themselves, other than that small void that I fixed with clear silicone, seemed very sturdy and the wiring was good quality also. I installed one set on my wife's Chevy Tahoe and the other set on my 08 Civic coupe. The install on hers was extremely quick and easy because she had existing factory fog lights that were destroyed and all I had to do was splice these into the factory wiring and mount them. I did have to purchase a wiring kit to install these on my Civic but it was still fairly easy to do with a little bit of knowledge. As far as performance I couldn't be happier. I was afraid that they would be too overpowering to oncoming traffic but they are not at all. They are very bright and add just the right amount of supplemental light to my factory headlights. In a pinch they are bright enough that I could drive with them alone. They light up signs and eyes of animals from a very long distance which pays for itself. *One thing I would like to clarify is that with this mounting bracket it is possible to mount them with the mounting bolt BEHIND the light instead of just top/bottom. I put the bolts through the holes for the factory tag mount on the front of my civic and it worked perfectly. I had asked if this was possible for one of the 12" light bars and was told no it wasn't possible but it is, I will post pictures as soon as I can.

These light cubes are AWESOME. I ordered the Flood version and they fully meet my needs. Easy to mount, easy to wire, GOOD wire used for leads, Insanely bright..Like looking into a Neutron Star. Great price, great product, AuxBeam has become my Go-To company for all vehicle lighting needs. No reason to go anywhere else for LED lights, if the rest of the line is as good as these, I can see them becoming a real powerhouse in the Vehicle Lighting market. Sure, they are not MilSpec sealed against .01 micron of dust, but is that REALLY a problem? Lights need to do two things well. Throw a beam of light so you do not crash and die and work when you hit the switch. These do both at a very reasonable price. I have friends that use these as driveway illumination in the woods. they work very well ANYWHERE you have 12V and need a bright, BIG beam. They throw a 10' circle of light at 30'. Pretty good defined beam, some spillover, but hey, it's a quality LED for under 20 bucks. I am buying another set in spot for driving lights and a 50" bar for my other truck. YOU NEED THESE!

Overall: Totally worth what you pay for them. You will not find something for a similar cost made as well as these. I would buy them 20 times over wherever required without a doubt. Solid, waterproof at least in rain/drizzle etc. Incredibly bright (for what you pay). The spot and flood lenses work very well in doing their job. Spot beam travels a fair distance. If you want to save money not running expensive aux lights on your dirt or ADV bike, go for these without a doubt. A 3 amp fuse should be all you should use with these as they have very little current draw in normal operation (read below). If they used actual CREE 3 watt chips I would not mind paying $30 for these cuz they'd be blisteringly bright. - The whole case of the lights is made of aluminum and acts as a heat sink which is good to keep the LED chips cool. - Mounting mechanism is pretty decent, if you reverse the mounts you can mount them on a wall (think van side) pointing almost straight. - Silicone O rings seal the front lens to not allow moisture to go in - 1/8th inch thick polycarbonate front lens should not shatter on impact or by rocks hitting it. - Rubber seal on sides with 4 mm hex bolts torqued pretty tight to avoid leakage. Not so good - They are not 18 watt as claimed by listing (false advertising?) They draw about 1 amp at about 12 volts which makes them 12 watts. With 6 LEDs that's 2 watt a piece. If you are feeling like it, 7 screws later and you could be soldering on new chips of your liking to the casing. The driver could probably take a bit more oomph.

Original Product with great quality and brightness.

Mounting bracket sheared off in less the a 400km ride

Quality light as expected from Auxbeam. Doesn’t come with wiring harness or rubber feet for brackets like other Auxbeam lights do. These took 5 days to arrive from the US which is pretty good, I ordered another set of lights from AliExpress on the same day and still waiting for delivery 8 days on.

Original Product & very good brightness. Great Performance.

Just unpackaged it and tested them. The units were shipped on time. The lights look like they are made with good materials and decent quality All LED's function and they are impressively bright. Brackets and fasteners seem good quality. The lights have wires with no connectors. Not installed yet and don't know about water tightness.
