Tekz 36045 8 LED Flashlight with Laser Pointer Review

Tekz 36045 8 LED Flashlight with Laser Pointer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I thought I read in the description that this light had 4 settings,
1. flashlight only
2. flashlight and pointer
3. pointer only
4. off
Mine has
1. flashlight only
2. off
3. pointer only
4. off
I don't see it in the description now, so maybe I imagined it, but I suspect it is defective as the one that I was trying to replace did have the 4 settings although it doesn't appear to be the same manufacturer/model.

These are pretty good however you get screwed over in shipping by these greedy SOB's! I wasn't going to order until I saw how much shipping was but because of either these people or amazon website, or a combination of the 2, I was charged way to much before I could give a final approval. Someone said you can get the same thing from Sears for about $1.60, look there first unless you want to pay almost $7.00 to ship something that coast only $1.39 to ship and another $0.30 for package to ship in.

Does a good job but the adhesive supplied to attache it to the truck is not up to the job. The easy fix is to attached it with SS screws. Even adding the screws (excluding time to go buy them) the install was less than 45 minutes.
UPDATE: 6 months use now and working just fine!

Western Power Sports Universal Tail Light - --/-- Review

Western Power Sports Universal Tail Light - --/--
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Was looking for a product like this for a long time. I first tried to fit a XR650R tail light and it lasted for a while but looked terrible and I wound up melting the plastic. When I found this tail light as a direct replacement I figured why not. Install was effortless. Took about 15 min drinking a beer. Looks factory works like a gem. Plenty bright at night on the street and in the trails. For the price you just cant beat it. If it was double I would buy another one any way. Keep up the good work and hope to see more products like this in the future... ie headlight would be great!

These are great led lights. I have them for all of my turn signals and tail/brake light. The more visible - the better. Radiantz makes great lighting and they are as economical as any I've found. Great purchase!

It is a bright LED light. Although a couple of the LED light bulbs do not work sometimes. The power switch is a little difficult to use. It is made of plastic. It is not a flashlight also as it may imply. Comes with no manual instructions for charging, etc.

Liked the Brite-Stick's various features, but it doesn't keep a charge very well. It works fine if you have a place to keep it plugged in between uses, but it isn't suitable to keep in a car or boat for emergency use.

Motorcycle Spawn Helmet Saftey Blue LED Headlights Fits all ATV quad scooter and motorcycle helmets shark arai icon shoei Review

Motorcycle Spawn Helmet Saftey Blue LED Headlights Fits all ATV quad scooter and motorcycle helmets shark arai icon shoei
Average Reviews:

The unit works, yet the cumbersome battery pack is suppose to fit inside the helmet somewhere. Guess it could if your head wasn't suppose to fit inside also! Another drawback is that the lights are designed to go inside the helmet, yet they create reflection so you cannot see out the shield. Looks cool, yet not functional.

Putco Pure Lighting 940248 Universal Amber Running Light Review

Putco Pure Lighting 940248 Universal Amber Running Light
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Recently I purchased this product for my truck in hopes of adding some more led lights to it as I'm an LED freak. It seemed like a really cool idea to have running lights mounted underneath my doors and after doing some research I settled on using this product over others brands or the more expensive option of building my own.
Well I was quite disappointed when the product arrived after opening it. The build quality just seemed to be very poor like it was some cheap Chinese product(which it should not have been for the price). Right off the bat I noticed that the bars plastic enclosure which houses the leds where already cloudy looking, not clear. I suspect that over time this would have gotten worse. Also the product came with wire loom to protect the wires although in many spots there were kinks in it exposing wires. I also managed to find that the driver side bar had slight damage to one of the power wires(luckily I had some liquid electrical tape handy to fix that). Once I got everything installed on my truck and started testing the bars I noticed the were really dim(both running lights and signal functions) far from what the manufacture describes and barely visible at all during the day. My old Oznium turn signal led strips on the bottom of my mirrors are about 10 times brighter. On top of that half of the drivers side bar was not flashing at all with turn signals/hazard functionality unless I bent it slightly in the middle holding it up with my fingers telling me it had an internal short.
So I suggest trying another manufacture or building your own using led sites such as Oznium, superbrightleds, etc

This upgrade looks great compared to the stock 3rd brake light. Very easy and quick to install too. Just unscrew old light and connect the new light and ur good to go. The lights are both very bright but still wish the cargo lights were a little more focused and brighter on the bed. But still a good choice and I am very happy with my purchace.

Halo Automotive White Super LED 31mm Wedge Bulb - Twin Pack Review

Halo Automotive White Super LED 31mm Wedge Bulb - Twin Pack
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Of all the 31mm festoon bulbs (most common size festoon on imports) this looked to be the best bet, but looks can be deceiving - the pictured bulbs were nowhere as well made as what was shipped. I had hoped these would be a good replacement for my LED conversion project but I may end up sending them back for several reasons
My LED conversion project:
My car has a 3 way switch for lighting. #1 is OFF #2 is a timer on door opening that is hard to distinguish from #3 which is ON forever. Therein lies the problem - with 8 festoon bulbs inside the car @ 7W each (incandescent) that's 56W of power drawing all night long if I push the switch too far up to turn on the lights and sometimes all day long since you dont notice the dome lights are all on in your SUV. Changing to LED 1W leds that are the same size bulb cuts the 56 watt load down to 8W. That's my goal at least.
When done, if I accidentally switch the lights to "ON" instead of "1 minute timer" and leave them that way I drain 1/7 the charge from the battery which makes the difference in starting the engine or getting a jump.
Now here's the bad news:
If you look closely at amazon's picture you'll see what looks to be a big LED with a heatsink (or some metal acting as a heatsink), which is important for the 1W LEDs today. Unfortunately what they shipped (I'll upload pictures) is a 2 piece plastic 12mm tube - 2mm larger than the festoon 10mm diameter spec. When inserted into the holder it snapped apart leaving me with a handfull of parts - I could use them but it's definitely not rugged like the amazon photo. I reassembled with the factory lens to try anyways and discovered another issue with LED conversion - factory lens/diffusers anticipate the long filament of a festoon bulb if thats what came with the car!
Take into consideration the difference in omitting the heatsink from the design - they can't run the 1W leds now which require a heatsink - this product is using some good quality 0.1 W leds which are BRIGHT for 0.1W (no heatsink), however not as bright as the 1W that you can get in the 31mm festoon package. For my suv's tailgate is up downlight where you sit, it already has a lens that the factory designed around the filament of a festoon light (20mm long approx) - change that to a point source of LED light and the factory LENS doesn't work as well as it did with the old bulbs in the car. In my specific case, I get less light with the LEDs because the factory lens isn't working as designed with the long filament down the bulb. This is probably why the 42 mm festoon bulbs try to put 3 leds in a row - they are emulating a strip of light, like the long filament of an incandescent bulb. 31mm is just a tad over an inch and doesn't have room for 3 led's and a heatsink (although my car has room for such a design if I made it myself!)Gotchas to keep your eyes out when buying led replacement lights:
#1 these are NOT the high power 1W LEDs - they are 0.1 W mounted on a pc board and a plastic two piece tube with light out one side only - so while a festoon bulb emits 360 degrees x 20mm, these emit about 30 degrees x 3mm - this can play games with the lens that covers them if it has its own diffuser. (mine has BOTH a lens right over the filament and a diffuser to catch stray light and bring it back)
#2 this particular product comes the closest to the original 31mm festoon bulb but is still too large to meet the 31mm spec (10mm glass tube with endcaps that make contact and a filament down the center) - it's body is 12 mm, which the clips on my car broke apart when I inserted it (it's just snapped together plastic) - plus it was 33mm long instead of 31 mm, which cracked the plastic tube. It also has no back light so lamp housings designed with a reflector behind the bulb won't benefit.
#3 Other 31mm festoon replacements that use a 2x3 grid of LEDs WONT work in many OEM applications simply because of their huge size. The leds are on a pc board that is not like the 10mm round glass tube that defines a normal festoon light. Most domelights these days don't have room for that big pc board. On my Honda, it's gotta be 10mm and round. This was the closest I could find.
So for now, 2 of my 8 bulbs got converted to led and I'm still looking for a good 194 wedge bulb that is bright. All the ones I've found so far do draw MUCH less power, but don't put out nearly as much usable light after the factory diffuser is replaced. It was not designed for a LED point source and doesn't work as well. I think the rule here is the more LEDs the better it looks like an incandescent!
Tomorrow these come out, go back to amazon in pieces due to the oversized package, and I continue my LED journey. Anyone with good 31mm festoon recommendations email please - my address is in my profile - thanks!. These may work for your car if your diffuser is clear and you have lots of room between the holders for the oversized package. They are well designed with a pc board that doesn't care about polarity and a smt 6 pin ic to drive the LED so I can't fault the engineer who made them. There are even cheaper designs on the market with just a resistor and a 50/50 chance of getting the polarity right - these work either way (an LED though only works with positve and negative right - so the designer had to get the voltage right and anticipate both insertion possibilities - that's why I'm still giving the product 4 stars because for some people it may still be the best bet.

I just installed this yesterday. I'm very happy that it uses AA batteries, which can be found just about anywhere these days. I bought this to replace a similar item that uses a hard-to-find battery and non-LED lights. The battery on that one died after a year. The old one was slightly brighter but not enough to be worth the extra initial cost and the cost of replacing the battery. I think I'm going to be very happy with this one.
