Post Cheap Light Bar
Anybody try this light bar? Not really in a spot to be spending all that money on a Rigid lightbar. If there is a better one for around $150, let me know.

You will be very pleased with that light bar. I've ran that one and one that was a little bit smaller. They have Cree led just like the high dollar ones. Unfortunately mine was stolen about a month ago in a wal mart parking lot. :|

I just bought this one for my truck. Seems to be super high quality, especially when you factor in the price. And it's bright as hell!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I went with the one I found... mainly because it looks cooler.

I used 14ga wire with a fuse to power the lights I have on there now. The LEDs don't tend to pull much so unless you run like 7 or 8 lights, you should be fine.

I see people starting to talk about these more. Putting 3 up front and pointing them so you get more coverage.

Anybody have a curved light bar? I have been looking at those. Figured a curved combo bar would give a good amount of coverage

I would like to inquire about the shape of your light bar. Does it bend or have any sort.of curvature to it? Anxiously awaiting your reply.

Would a 6" bar with spot in the middle and flood on each side be enough or should i go 12"?

about to buy some of these. How are they holding up? Any issues with the mounting brackets? I cross some rough water occasionally and a little worried about hitting the waves and the unit coming loose.
