  • My LED video link

    hey all.... here's a link to a video I just took of all my lights ACTUALLY in action now! My wi-fi is F'd up right now so my not so "smart' phone couldn't send it to youtube. So I posted it to my facebook and left it open to public.

    Thanks again for all the help and putting up with me the last couple weeks on this project. I hope the next one goes a little easier!

      Just watched it on my computer... I need to clean up my garage got tools flung from hell to breakfast along with bags of this and that... I need another bay so i dont trip on everything and maybe can work on more than 1 project at a time. but as SWMBO would say "you'll just fill it up with crap too"
      She's probably right

          when I first got em in I thought the fronts were dimmer than the 1157's. then i opened the garage door and stepped back and looked. up close they look dimmer cuz the 24 bulb 140 deg LEDs fill up the whole lens better than just one spot in the lens like the 1157's. From about 10 feet back and further they are way more noticeable from odd angles.

          I will say the lower rear LED is brighter as a tail light but dimmer as a brake light than a 1157. I think this is due to that this is one of those combo tail/brake/license plate light superbrightLED makes. Theres 6 white bulds that go around the outer perimeter to light the license plate. so I think they shine a little too much off the reflector lense inside the housing. But the multi-angle 90 deg 2w LED's in the 2 uppers ARE as bright as the camera picks up. super nice!!!
