LEDs

<< < (2/6) > >>

LandRoger:
So what apart from cost is the advantage of the LED set up ? as the light output wasn't a lot different to my Cibie super Oscar rally 4 light set up,  one other thing I did notice was that the LED set up seemed more steady than  the spots.

Devon-Rover:
I would assume current draw would be lower in terms of amps verses Lumen output.

That is what has attracted me to Using LEDS. although not on the scale as seen above, Maybe one day.

YT:
Low current draw/lumens output is the clincher. Both headlight units on high beam only draw 3A, both bars are on a 40A relay, but could easily get out with a 20A. The other advantage is no light flare off the bonnet, that's down to the LEDs being 6500 Kelvin colour temp, 6500K is the equivalent 'colour' as daylight, that also reduces eye strain at night. Daylight photos give a better idea of what they're like compared to halogens.
This was taken in bright sunlight.
 

LandRoger:
Any ideas why this kind of set up is not used by the WRC teams .?   :blank:

YT:
I had been thinking the same, just last week I noticed one of the WRC teams are using a bar one their cars. Pretty sure it was Seat.
