Let there be light!

[cruiseroutfit]

Can I just say I'm beyond excited to flip the switch on these

Some will say "that is too much light" , I can assure you they have never driven 100+ mph through the dusty night on the heels of a competitor during the B1K

That's going to be an insane amount of light... but probably just enough for your needs!

Thats why it was so warm yesterday, there is a second sun in utah.

 

[Kevin B.]

Holy crap.

I wanna know more about the truck those are on.

How do you properly wire up that many lights? With that much power running at once what else had to be modified?

I didn't realize you guys had switched from the buggy. Very cool.

Don't be by any dry grass when turning them on.

65,600 lumen.... that should be just about right I run my Rigid LED's every morning and evening flying across the desert out here. I can't imagine how nice that setup would be.

We had a unique opportunity pop up. We were well acquainted with this truck and the team, in fact we helped them in the pits (Bay of LA) during the 2010? B1K where Joe Bacal went on to take 1st in class, he would do that several more times. We always joked "let us know when your ready to sell". Fast forward a few years and Joe the team owner reached out to me on FB and asked if we were still in the market. I put him in touch with our team owner and short time later our Class 5 was on the market and we were spending our spare time wrenching on this Class 8. The team took on and finished Vegas 2 Reno while I was still driving home from South America.

Not a worry at all, this came equipped with a 180A factory alternator. Considering it no longer has power doors, windows, HVAC, stock headlights, etc... we are not in the least bit concerned

I want to see these bad boys lit up!

Me too, soon!

I've seen that on a trophy truck. Crazy but lights and electrical power in general has changed substantially over the years... LED's have really changed the game.
