LED Work and Camp Sight Lights

I came across a very well made LED Work/Camping Flood Light that is approximately 1/3 smaller than the existing Hella type lights that a number of us have employed on our Vans .In comparison to the 5 Hella double work lights that I had SportsMobile install on our Aluminess rack before delivery I found that I am realizing more usable light in a stronger less obtrusive package ( I have already torn 2 of the Hella's off while moving thru brush/tree lined trails ) I tested two of them out last night for 3 hours and found them to draw 1.3 Amps per hour per light where the Hella Double was operating at 9.16 amps per light X 2 per Van Side for a power sucking 18 Amps per hour I am replacing all 5 of the Hellas shortly . You can purchase these Maxxima MWL-05 High Output LED 's from the following company with great service and quick in house shipping !

Re: LED Work and Camp Sight Lights

Nice find, and seems a decent price.

--------------------------------------
[EDIT]
Browsing through their online shop, I came across these which I like. Would be an interesting option for the rear Aluminess, on the "corner" that is at about a 45 degree angle from the rear face of the bumper. Provides a combination brake light, turn signal and backup light. Aesthetically though, I don't know a round lamp would look good on the bumper with the rectangular backup lamp cutouts. If I were to start over on a rear Aluminess, I would probably go for the oval, LED auxilliary backup trailer lamps mounted in the rubber grommets, and then dd these on "the corners".



Maxxima: Hybrid Series 4" Round Flange Mount, Back-up & Stop/Turn/Tail with 27 LEDs
- Combines STT & Back-up function in one unit. - 100,000 Hour Rated LED Life - 18 WHITE LEDs, 9 RED LEDs
Price: $47.49

Re: LED Work and Camp Sight Lights

That is a great idea Herb , especially in very tight spot's in low light or darkness .

Re: LED Work and Camp Sight Lights

While we're on the subject of high output led flood lights, here's an even more compact higher output unit for close to the same price:
