RedRider Posted June 9, 2016 #1 Posted June 9, 2016 Just purchased a set of these to replace the PAR36 lights in the light bar. With changing all my other lights to LEDs, I should have enough power to fire these full time. 3200 Lumens - each! Not just looking to 'SEE' deer on the side of the road - looking to 'VAPORIZE' deer on the side of the road. http://www.rigidindustries.com/led-lighting/62010 Will report back once received and installed.

djh3 Posted June 11, 2016 #3 Posted June 11, 2016 So do they draw 40w? If so you need to check your wire size going to your passing light to be sure its large enough. The 35w standard bulbs draw a pretty big load.
leroy Posted June 12, 2016 #5 Posted June 12, 2016 Not much savings on amps unless the 40 watts is for two. I appears it is for one. However, they should be bright. I believe the standard PAR 36s draw 36 watts each so that would be just under 3 amps each.
saddlebum Posted June 12, 2016 #6 Posted June 12, 2016 The specs say 2.86 amps. That's nothing. My PIAA led Fog lights only use a 2 amp fuse and I can leave them on for hours without running the bike and they barely discharge the battery. They only require 18 gauge wire as well. http://www.piaa.com/store/p/188-LP530-3-5-LED-Fog-Light-Kit-SAE-Compliant.aspx They also come in a driving light version http://www.piaa.com/store/p/187-LP530-3-5-LED-Driving-Light-Kit.aspx and they are both extremely bright.
Sylvester Posted June 14, 2016 #7 Posted June 14, 2016 I have the "Larsen Lights":farmer: PAR36 20 degree spot and it lights up the road for a reasonable cost.
RedRider Posted June 14, 2016 Author #8 Posted June 14, 2016 Just got my shipping notification. Should be here Friday for weekend installation. RR
