LED Working Lamps for Forest Machine

Recommended Posts

Time to upgrade 14 x Halogen cab lights and 4 x Halogen Crane/Head lights to LED.

 

I rang John Deere who were keen to sell me 18 x unspecified lumens output JD "approved" work lamps @ £235/ea :lol:

 

Rang Clarkes who very honourably suggested by the time I'd bought 14 x £135 570 Lumens output lamps, LED technology would have moved on and I'd be out of date in light output!

 

Spoke to Sparex; 1150 lumens @ £18/ea so bang for buck appears to be improving dramatically.

 

Now ebay - thousands of the things for sale; all wonderful prices!

 

Any advice?!

 

Cheers! :thumbup:

Just check the light throw pattern. Nothing worse than having spots when you want floods.

 

Perzackly that.

 

This guy does a demo on the difference.

I bought ten of these off ebay and they are advertised as a worklamp but they are definitely a spot , they will get used as reversing or driving lights on the plant and I will get some proper work lights. Nothing more dangerous than loading plant on the lowloader in the dark in the dazzle of these cheapy spots :thumbdown:
