I created these 2 videos to answer the question that comes up a lot, "Can I use an LED instead of a halogen bulb in my lightbar?" The short answer is it depends... Depends on the specific reflector, LED size/style and your intended use with the lightbar. See individual bulb results along with side by side comparisons.
The first video is about a minute and a half. It is intended For those that do not care about the how or why or just want a quick answer. I made this one specifically for ELB based off feedback from others.
Although the 2nd video is about 20 minutes long, I still didn't cover all that I wanted but did hit many main points. Hopefully it answers some questions that you didn't think to ask.
Please leave a thumbs up on the video and pass it along to those you think might be interested. Would love any questions or comments you may have too.
Extended video segment time markers.
3:01, compare all bulb pattern size and brightness over varying distance.
7:30, compare the 9 LEDs side by side flashing and rotating in a 795 in a Federal Signal Jetsonic.
10:48, comparing 2 LEDs with 2 795x bulbs side by side, in a 22 Aerodynic in light and night plus a Code 3 LP6000 outdoors.
18:35, showing effects different color filters have on the LEDs.
19:50, additional info, observations and wrap up including notes on the Vision and D-Tech lightbar.
Thank you.
