A double row works well behind the Denali grill. Here's my 30" curved Totron:                 The LED's are 1" appart and the rows of holes in the grill just happen to be 1" ap

The correct term is "illegal commodities broker" thank you!   I actually work for an oil company, which is similar because both businesses provide highly desired products at artificially inflated

The Baja Designs SII lights came today. One of the bennies of living less than 100 miles from the maker.

 

This little light is really tiny. But incredibly bright. 2160 lumens. I fired one up with some jury rigging. Amazingly bright for such a little package. These are the "wide cornering" lights with the Fresnel lens with a wide pattern like a true fog light should have.

No switch. I will put my relay on the fog light fuse with a fuse wire tap.

So the led comes on with the fogs? Can you turn it on seperate?

Neat way to do the installation. No wiring thru the firewall and no switches in the dash to install.

That's it ;) Anyway, LED comes with the fog, I want more lumens when I will go on the offroad.

The lights available today are incredible. I remember tooling around the California desert in a 67 VW with a 6volt system and two lights that you could hardly see past the bumper with.

 

Later we discovered K C Hilites. This little company was taking light airplane 12v sealed beam landing light bulbs and making housings for them to mount on off-road vehicles. 4 100 watt KC Hilites would ignite the night, but your alternator was working overtime and they died early. Wiring and switches carried full current. Wires were big gauge.

 

So this is one old guy that is amazed when a LED assembly with a few 1" reflectors drawing 1/4 of the current, puts out the same light as a 7" landing light.

Any pictures up close of the led bar mounted behind the grille (Silverado), I want to see the where the mounts actually bolt to the truck?

 

I plan on putting a 40" Double Row behind my grille but want to make sure I know exactly were to mount it before starting the project.

5000k is better, I think! But it's my old kit on my 2010 Silverado.

Looks like we may have got taken. Bunch of negative feedback claiming scam on his feedback now. When I bought, he didn't have hardly anything negative. Now, he has a bunch of unhappy people it seems.

I use this switch on my current truck, using the high beam as the trigger, and will be using it on my new Denali once it comes in. Keeps everything under the hood.

Mdmischief, where did you tap in to the high beam trigger wire? This looks like an amazingly clean way of turning the lights on. Thanks,

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
