OK ladies and gents,
I recently imported an LED headlight and I'm fairly pleased with the results. If anyone else is interested in owning one (or more), I can get a bit of a savings on them if I import in bulk. Shipment time across the ocean is around two weeks and if we can get five people signed up to this deal, these are available for $100 (price includes shipping within the USA, add $20 for other countries).
These are 7" headlights making use of three, three watt CREE LEDs. Total wattage draw when all three are on at once is 12W. Normal beam operation is the bottom two lights on, top off, and high beam operation is all three lights on. Running light is a single smaller LED located in the center of the headlight.
Mounting points on the back of the headlight are 5.7" wide and the headlight comes with the necessary bolts and also includes a molded connector for the electrics. It's a four wire connection (common ground, running light, low beam, and high beam) and some soldering and/or crimping will be necessary to get it connected into your harness.
The headlight shell is a satin black plastic. It doesn't feel super thick to me, but it's not too flimsy, either. A large heat sink occupies most of the interior of the shell of the headlight, so those of you with complicated wiring runs may need to find someplace else to stash your rat's nest.
Here's some pics of the light on my bike and then shining down my driveway (which I estimate to be around 80ft long) with the high beam on:
My hope is to have this order placed next Friday (Jan 18), so that I can get these shipped out to you guys last week of January/first week of February. If we don't have enough orders for the group buy price, the individual price may go up $5-$10 depending on how many folks are involved.
Bear in mind that your locale may or may not allow for LED headlights, so you may want to treat this as an "offroad only" item.
PM me for my paypal address.
Thanks in advance,
Matt
