Been catching up on your thread, saw that REI stove/table case - I have the same thing but the very first model (shorter table legs), great addition specially for that price.

im still on the fence about going to pismo in NOV. the weather is much cooler than. but i heard in the years past events, the LC drivers tear it up in the dunes.
ill go if i can get atleast one of my friends/co worker to go
till than i got plans in mid oct to hit up the mountains to see about some snow
REI has tons of stuff i want but so damn expensive.. more used gear sale events for me if i plan to keep shopping there lol

Nice,..... What size????? Gonna make me look back? Haha. Who did you get it from? I know you like bargains so I'm assuming you didn't get it from rigid. I started seeing covers for them, I think that's a great idea... Hard plastic and the clip on to the little corrugated fins portion... I think the only one I saw said rigid on them , but then millions of copies will be soon to follow I'm sure. I like the idea of a cover only because, while the glass is definitely hard, Why not protect it when it is not in use, correct? I think I saw colored covers too, like Lightforce does......
Remember those lights on the trip?[Lightforce] Good grief those things are insane. I remember someone blinding me on a trip one time and it was a Buell, you know the Harley Davidson super fast street bikes? But this one was more of an off-road version... The thing was maladjusted, pointing strictly straight ahead and even a little up, so I'm sure that was a factor, but actually a couple of us had to pull over a bit to let him pass. We saw him later at a gas station, as I walked over to tell him he needs to fix the freaking light, before I could say anything he apologized and said "Oh my gosh guys, I'm so sorry!!! I'm missing piece of hardware and I have to use zip ties to hold this thing on until I can get home... I'm so sorry!" .... My DC's - 8" are pretty BA too... Very bright. ..... I just don't have space any more for the round halogens. I would have to either mount them on the roof or just go with rectangular on the front, above the LED that is already there. That means I would have no air pushing through for cooling right there, ....at all,... pretty much. Lol.

It's made by Lifetime LED and carries a lifetime warranty. Hence the name. I sure it's made in china but the company is based in NY. My friend owns a local off road company that sells tons of stuff so I go to him for the best prices. California Crawlers
It's a 13.5 inch LED flood
They carry many sizes and if you wanna look at them. Google lifetime led. Should be the name of the site as well

mark, i really like to find a cover for these or something that would fit. the glass is right up front and could take rock damage. if you find some covers, let me know!!
finally drilled the holes and installed it. i love it even more!!
my poor arb bumper. lucky i had it for a while or else i dont think i could have done this if it was new haha
cant wait to try it out this winter. i have it slightly aim down since it is flood and be more useful when going down hill where i stock/fj lights dont light well
