Awesome!

i'm definitely in. ship me one i'll test it out for you.

Very cool looking setup! Do you have a shot of it shining on something? Just trying to get an idea of the spread and distance.

Killer lightbar, I want one (or 2) :mrgreen:.

Let's just say that you won't need lights in your garage/hobby room any longer! Just mount your truck to the ceiling like a chandelier! "thumbsup"

these look nice,what's the ETA on these.

Awesome! Whats the possibility of a 2" one?

what is the MCD of the LEDs?

looks great btw!

Sweet! I was just looking around for a low profile light bar.

I'm liking what I see so far. "thumbsup"

These LEDs are rated at 12,000 mcd each x 13 = a ridiculous 156,000 mcd! :mrgreen:

Pictures do not do these justice. They are so bright is is ridiculous. Jim has done an outstanding job in making these as compact as possible to get the most scale look. "thumbsup"

coool.....that is a got to have

Dam looks like you beat me to it :( been working on mine for sometime lol

Jim had prototypes and the PCB boards done before RCX this year, but this stuff takes a long time. Should have seen him carrying around his prototype at RCX and blinding people :ror:

Been working on mine for many many months, waiting for machinist to cut my light bodies was a different story haha. No hurt feelings here. They look great! I have enough SMD's here to light my x-mas tree :D

Wow these are cool, you can count me in to try everyones design out "thumbsup"

Just saw them on RPPs website. Out of stock of course(not in stock yet). not a bad price"thumbsup".

ETA?(had to ask:ror:)

I set up a simple comparison between my lightbar and a mini-maglite. I set my camera to the exact same shutter speed, aperture, etc:

f/4.5
1 second exposure
ISO 200
no flash

Here'e the comparison of brightness, spread and distance:
