High power reverse lights

[TwoBobsKJ]

I ordered a set as well - plus interior LED's - back on April 8th. Sent an email wondering where they were and evidently, Freedom, your post here has generated a LOT of orders so they ran out of stock :head3:

Mine should arrive this week.

Cool. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do. I'm still amazed everytime I go to back up! :icon_smile:

Just ordered my set. If they're backordered, I'm not worried since I haven't even taken the ****** apart yet

Thanks!

Nice! How do you like them?

Which selection is the one you guys are getting? Top LED with Radial LED or Top 5W LED only?

 

[CzarKJ]

well I haven't backed up at night yet but so far they rock! Throws light 50ft+. I accidentally blinded my roommates already haha.

I ended up with just the top but that's after I selected radial and they N/A'ed it.

I got the Top LED with Radial LEDs. Either will work since the brightness is from the 5W top Cree LED. The radial LEDs are just fillers.

Cool. Thanx.:Rock on:

Ok this is the latest info from them
Hello,

The bulbs you received are our new generation of improved bulbs that are brighter than the previous Top LED with Radial LED bulbs which are now discontinued. The new version of these offer the same wider spread with more uniform distribution, more output overall, and full temperature compensation for unlimited run time, with the newer line up of CREE LEDs.

Thank you, Dave T - Retro-Solutions, LLC

I ordered the top with radial.

Sorry thats not what you'll get thats the same as I ordered and not what I got. My post is what there answer was to me as of today.

 

[Leeann]

Okey-dokey. I haven't received any notification yet.

 

[CzarKJ]

Don't worry though! As you can see by my pictures they still rock!

 

[Porkchop]

Oh ya I'm putting the in this weekend.

 

[Leeann]

Hey Freedom, just installed these yesterday (they were backordered cuz a lot of Jeepers were ordering them!) and they are quite bright! I had to unplug them and turn them around to get them to light as they have a specific polarity to them; turned the wrong way they won't light up. At first I thought I got a bad batch. :boxed:

My wife and I were out last night and as we were leaving our friend's house she remarked how much easier it is to see behind the Jeep when backing up. Gonna come in real handy when backup up the boat at night.

The interior LEDs I installed from the same place dramatically brighten the cabin - not at all harsh but just the way it should have been from the factory. My wife has a '12 Ford Focus with LED interior lighting and the Jeep is very similar to it now. The courtesy bulbs for the footwells are on backorder (UGH!) but are supposed to ship this week.

FWIW all the LED's dim and extinguish completely but I think it's because the incandescent courtesy lights are still in place so the BCM sees a load and completely cuts voltage. I'm curious if they will glow slightly when all interior lights are LED's - if they do then I'll insert an incandescent bulb in the circuit and hide it away so the BCM sees a load at all times.

Thanks for the tip, Freedom! :happy160:
