Default ??? CREE LED lights ???

Anyone knows where to buy these insane power cree LED's made fo rc trucks? I found there are flashlights and bicycle flashlights with those installed! They are crazy powerfull!
SO was wondering it' sall custom work or there is someone who already preinstalls all resistors etc... Plug and Play type?


It's not like 5mm and 3mm regular LED's not enough but you always want more...

I know there are Vanquish lightbars and Rigid Industries but I am looking what to put in my headlights...

as already said their is a guy here in the vendor section that makes lightbars with cree led's.

if you want them for headlights instead of 5mm ones they will still need to be mounted to some sort of heatsink as they get hot!!!

i use half watt smd led's and my thermal pads on the pcb for those can hit 65-70c if i run them closer towards their rated current.

another thing i use for headlights is 5mm 0.5w led's, you can get them on ebay and they actually put out a good amount of light.

Thanks guys for info!!!

I knew they produce a lot of heat so didn't even bother about thinking to put those as headlights... untill...

Got across this video

Was just blown away how awesome that is! Light bars do make more sense and a lot easyer but why to waist headlight space Right?

Will dig into this more... I am sure in year or so ppl will think about regular LED's as candles... oldschool!

Maybe some one will come forward with some pictures of their setup... I am sure nissandriver24 isn't only one who have done it!
