Hello Ladies and Gents,
Currently looking at putting some 'area' lights on the sides and rear of the vehicle for camping/work purposes. No great big spot lights but would like to be able to light up the few meters around the car.
Looking at new LEDs for the size, the robustness, and most of all the low current draw.
While there are one or two models out that contain leds they are horrendously expensive.
Has anyone come across any LED options that are
well priced (ie similar to standard area lights)?
Thanks guys,
Dave

Dave,
Agree on the high cost of some current LED lights.
Whitworths have a few new LED lights in their latest catalogue, and compared to some Hella lights, the prices are reasonable. They have some step lights as
well as cabin/reading lights, all in LED.
Hella make some "cool" step lights too, but the cheapest I've been able to source them is >$25 each.
Also try latest Jaycar catalogue/website. They have a number of LED lights, as
well as LED globes that you might be able to retro-fit to some standard sockets.
Hooroo,
Bob.
