i have a 40 inch led light bar that i got from ebay, i had another 1 from amazon, they all seem to be about the same. any who, that bluish tint he describes is odd. on a rainy road it makes the road appear to have ice on it.
i do notice that they dont go out as far as say hid's do, but there far enough, and with a mix of spot/flood you get great coverage. my buddy runs 2 hid's for distance. however the price of 2 decent hid's is the cost of 1 40 inch led light bar on ebay. and you wont get the coverage.
the led light bar i have is so bright that i cant tell if my bright lights are on or off when the bar is on. they are pretty damn bright.
rigid is supposed to have the best led light bars, but i have a lot of friends with ebay/amazon light bars and no one has ever had a problem, there water proof, have nice big heat sinks, scratch proof lens, easy to wire up ( pos/neg wires) sturdy aluminum frame/structure. i wouldnt hesitate to buy another led light bar. you can get them in spot, flood, and spot/flood combo.
also you have to wait for hid's to heat up before there in full affect, led's are instant and less power draw, so if your using your hid's while winching you might experience problems.
