I think he has them already as he put some pics up.
those 185 watt 9" ones look interesting
$200 for 2 plus freight is very good IMO

I have a set of those on the front of my troll 3D. Best lights I have used

Where does it say $200 Plus freight?
I will warn you about this mob. I have sitting here 4 of the 185W jobbies, did have 5 but 1 set is now on my car, 5 of the 111W's and 5 of another companies 90W lights. I ordered the 111W and the 185W back in September, all with wiring looms. They only arrived Monday. After many emails and no return emails I was getting quite frustrated thinking they'd done a runner with my moolah. They finally turned up and one set of lights was missing its protective cover and I was missing 5 wiring looms and two looms were broken. So I am currently trying to get them to sort this out before I put them up for sale.
My next order for these won't be with this mob thats for sure.
Edit : The ones I have brought in are the black rimmed style. I didn't bother with the red ones.

says min order on some is 2 @ $100 us each

You wont get them for that. $100-$150 USD a piece, or each light plus freight.

I just finished making these up in Photochop.

[threedogs]

they even advertise as ARB style on some.
I'll wait for Stropps report

[megatexture]

A mate has the arb copies in red and the red has gone to sh!t real fast

[megatexture]

I've spent around 5k with this mob mudski and have never had a issue with customer service, one light bar on a mates triton got moisture in it and sent them a pic and they posted out a new one for us. http://nbbrightshine.en.alibaba.com

Funny you say that. I was going to order from them. Then this mob came back with a better price and were all nice and polite. I handed over nearly 4k to them and didn't hear boo for nearly 5 weeks. Wasn't happy to say the least.

[Hodge]

As per my comment in the "What did you buy today" thread about these lights... My mate is still waiting for response on the warranty regarding his LED's fading on one of the lights. The other one is still going strong. Shame as physically they appear to be a very solid unit.

[mudski]

Who did he buy them from Eric. Some of these companies are quite dodgy. I recently changed suppliers for the aftermarket air flow meters. They arrive and none of them have the sealing oring around them. I contact them and they tell me they don't come with them a no other supplier does too and it will cost X amount to get these orings. Funny that my previous two suppliers did. As soon as they get your coin some don't give a rats.

52317 52318 These are mine, 96watt, they have been great to deal with and have asked me for feedback on them.

Same thing happend to my mate and they responded saying next order rhey will post out a replacement face for it ..not sure who he got em through though

[threedogs]

Just got a price for two 9" 185 watt cree LED driving lights and my quote was $305 to my front door.
Mind you $75 of that is freight

What are your thoughts on them Stropp? I put the 185's on and they look a bit too big for my liking. Maybe because I'm used to the smaller IPF's I had on prior. Light output I haven't really had a chance to test out yet.

[threedogs]

@ Mudski I run 9" HID driving lights ATM and have had no problems with air flow whats so ever

They look like they would make awesome set up lights
@ stropp do you think the 185 watt would be much better

[mudski]

Its not air flow, its just the size of them. I'm not used to it thats all.

Throw a pic up, interested in what you think when its dark

hard to say mate until you put them side by side, when you get yours come for a drive ;)

[threedogs]

Just read a road report on the ARB ones and they state they go 900 mtrs so not too bad at all.
Also my mate has just installed those LED headlights with the fan, must say the fan is noisy as.
not sure you'd hear it in the cabin though, but a fantastic white light,
. Cant remember what he said about high beam, but he seems happy he has some light bars to help out.

@ Stropp how do you find on coming traffic do they flash you to tell you to dip your lights?
Mates were 6000K so very white, are they ADR approved?

[mudski]

Throw a pic up, interested in what you think when its dark

Pretty good when dark but havrnt really given a proper test yet. I wouldnt say these would go 900metres. My old IPF HID'S would but not these. Its a different light output, something to get used to.

[threedogs]

thanks mate good to see a bit of room in your shed lol
I thought 900 was a bit far but thats their sales pitch I suppose.

[Stropp]

definately not 900 mtrs, as i said not as far as the lightforce hid but still pretty good.

[threedogs]

Mate showed me his LED headlights with a fan over the weekend , boy the fan is a bit noisey IMO
maybe not audible from the cabin though.
I loved the pure white light they gave out but wasnt dark enough to see how good they were.
Especially on high beam, imo you need the light out there

[Stropp]

I received my led headlight kits today so will see how they go when I get them in.

[megatexture]

Keen to see some pics :smiley_thumbs_up:

[Stropp]

Will try to fit em on the weekend and get some pics posted up

[megatexture]

How do they look ? Quality wise

[mudski]

They look quite good I think. As for quality they are pretty good. They are quite heavy too. I was a bit surprised when I first picked one up. The body is cast with the large heat sink on the back for the heat to soak into.

found these thought they might have interest

[megatexture]

Jeez they are expensive!

[threedogs]

The 185 watt jobs were $520

[menace 2]

it just says waterproof "bracket"...are the lights themselves waterproof ?

[megatexture]

The 185 watt jobs were $520 may as well cut out the middle man and go straight to china and pay half what these blokes want


it just says waterproof "bracket"...are the lights themselves waterproof ?

Lmao prob not

[threedogs]

The 185 watt jobs were $520

My quote was $315 for 2 delivered for 185 watts
but after seeing my mates led head lights
with fan I think Ill do that first

[threedogs]

It will say IP68 or similar for waterproof rating

[Stropp]

i will be fitting mine tomorrow hopefully.

[megatexture]

How'd you go get em in? My fingers are x as I hate having halogen headlights but don't want to fork out the coin for projector hid's

[Stropp]

Well got the lights fitted and overall I'm happy with them, the low beam is brilliant but there is very very little difference to high beam! 52857

That's low beam you cannot see a visual difference in high

[megatexture]

So both high and low look the same? Do you think cars will be blinded ?

[Stropp]

No mate high beam does move up but it does not project any further, it reaches about the same as my old globes but is much much whiter, I passed several cars and had no problem with them flashing at me so I assume it's all good.

[megatexture]

Sweet I might look at trying them but in a higher wattage
