 Re: 89.95$ later...
Got another PD on the way. Will most likely sell it as a boat/motor/trailer deal, and then start my center console rig.

Mine will probably be like yours, 20x48, but with an EFI Pro-Drive.

 Re: 89.95$ later...
Unsolicited testimonial here.....
Bought one of the cheap ones off eBay, sank it, rammed it into shit, generally abused the hell out of it...... STILL shines like a champ!

 Re: 89.95$ later...
You would be surprised how few factories produce our goods. Often it goes like this..... Ching Ching Chingman in china has a factory. It can produce 50,000 units per month. Mr. Chingman has a contract with the industry leading brand to produce for them 35,000 units per month. Mr. Chingman still produces 50,000 units but slaps his own (or more likely his cousin, the middleman) off brand label and sells them cheaper than the name brand (but more than the name brand pays him to produce them). You get the same product with less customer service and support and maybe less warranty at a DEEP discount.

Owen, post a link! Did you go with spot or flood? Think it would make a decent Bowfishing light?

 Re: 89.95$ later...
When I first saw this, I thought you had found a carb kit for $90 For the record, yeah you can get cheaper lights but I've lost count as to how many I've bought and sent back comparing them. It's not in the bulbs, it's in the reflectors on how they shine. For those who think you can get the same light as Rigid, you can't, they're reflectors are patented and can't be duplicated and there is a difference. But are they 2 and sometimes 3 times better, I don't personally think so. The cheaper ones are getting better and better. It's just a matter of time. One of my favorites is a 12" combo flood el cheapo.

 Re: 89.95$ later...
So much for a curved bar?
Your right will but to me rigid has about priced their selves out of the average persons hands. I have owned several pair of d2's but can't see buying anymore

 Re: 89.95$ later...
i bought my 20" rigid brand new for less than the 10" rigid. They come up on ebay every now and again for a good deal, have a little paitenance and for double the price of junk you can get the best.  but i do agree no way i would of paid the $700 it cost regular price

 Re: 89.95$ later...
I have had pretty good luck with them aswell. The single bars however are not as bright as double. Biggest problem with some brands is mounts, getting loose. My last rig Just these up on my prodigy have about 120 in all three light, flood sides 9" spot middle
