When I first seen that LED layout, I thought that I might throw lighting all over the place. But I see that it actually has a well designed pattern and casts a real nice, non-obtrusive beam. Good find. At around $70.00, that's quite the score for a sealed unit LED headlight. Good to see that they're finally becoming more affordable.

This is the one i bought sonce the seller in 10 mile away from me incase it was junk i could return it. But ebay has a lot of these for around 40 dollars. Its a spot/ flood combo light. Oringally it was listed as just a flood light. Its throws a circle spot light.

Another LED bulb alternative. Looks exactly like the DK Customs one, but way less expensive.

CREE LED is the way to go but I read the COB LED is pretty much the same, better in some application as in life span but possible not as bright. ( 2 competing technologies maybe)

I was going to get one but the lumens are about the same as a stock set up. 1700-1800 tops. I wanted something brighter. your better for getting a led bulb for 20 bucks thats about 2000 lumens.
