OK I know people love JW Speaker LEDs but I want to see who has tried the off brands and if any are recommended. I've seen many on Amazon under $3000. Below are just some of the brands. Can we get some feed back on any of these or others?

Xprite
Lantsun
Turbo
Sunpie
And a new one from a company Flux includes headlights and tail lights under $300

Xprite, sunpies, and turbo are all garbage lights. I have sold those and used them and most of them I have delt with have had issues, especially the xprite and Sunpie. The light bar brackets xprite sells are garbage as well. I got a couple you tube write ups on their products.

I had two different headlights from LifeTimeLed, hated them, and returned them both. I couldn't help myself comparing them to jw speakers and I ended up folding and buying jw speakers yesterday. Check out truck-lite. They're around $375 and you could probably get them cheaper through a forum discount. I've heard great things about them

Those are sunpies. They are made by ascendled and are sold by Suparee , Sunpie and also under the ascend name but ascend is the manufacturer and those suck. I'd steer clear of those, I had a ton of warranty claims against their headlights and I ended up having to go in my pocket on a good portion of them because they wouldn't honor their supposed warranty. Their reviews on Amazon are botched.

Here is what I'm running, these are around $280 shipped, I'll have to confirm that but I think that's what they told me, I got the for free to test out but I am yet to see a led with a cutoff this sharp and no artifacts in the light. These have been some of the best I have ever tested and used. A company called Best sent them to me.









What I like about these is they aren't knock offs they are their own style. On high beam forget about not seeing, you light it up for a good ways down the road on a flat stretch. They make them for right and left hand jeeps, specifically to keep you from blinding oncoming traffic .

It's not fair to call all $250 headlights junk. I'd put the ones I'm running now up against any JW Speaker headlight. They are great quality, from a company that backs their products and have a better beam pattern than the JWs. They are $280. You can find good ones, you just gotta do your homework. As of late, I've seen a lot of JW failures being posted about on the forum. Not to knock JW because they do make a great light, but to say all $250 stuff is junk is very unfair statement to make.

Auroras lights are over priced versions of the other led headlights. I have had a set of their headlights on my Jeep, they are good lights, better than a Sunpie or turbo. Wukmaled is who manufactures the leds for Aurora, they don't make their own. They are just a distributor from China putting their name on the lights. Here is a Aurora headlight for reference compared to a lantsun headlight beam pattern

Aurora headlight low beam



Aurora headlight low beam



Aurora hi beam



Aurora hi



Now compared to a lantsun light on the same wall

Lantsun headlight



Lantsun lo beam



Lantsun hi beam






All that on the same wall. The lantsun light has a obvious better beam pattern, both still bleeding light, but the lantsun light is $100 cheaper than the Aroura from most vendors. Aurora sells nice light bars but their headlights leave a lot to desire IMHO. Still can't beat a beam pattern like this

Best LTD led headlight



Best LTD



Best LTD low beam



Best hi beam



Another shot of the best LTD beam pattern



The Best LTD led Headlight is cheaper than the Aurora but more than the lantsun. About $30 cheaper than Aroura And $60-$80 more than the Lantsun but obviously has a awesome beam pattern. I think some people don't know what a good beam pattern should look like. Shine your stock headlights against a wall and see how much light bleeds up past the cutoff, meaning the spot where the light is supposed to stop. The pattern should stop at the cutoff and not bleed light past it. That light going past has to go somewhere and it normally ends up in a tree or in on coming traffics eyes. Also your stock beam pattern don't have artifacts,like a box or x or circles, it is solid light so a good beam pattern will have a solid light without any of that. You can look at the above patterns and see a obvious difference in each one of them.

Purchased the Xprite led headlights but have not installed yet. I'm an average electrician and saw the install YouTube video. The guy on the video was a little to understand due to his strong accent. Also he is showing the alternate turn signal connection that comes on the headlights. He installs this by just sliding the expose wire to the area where it needs to go. I was wondering won't the wires come loose because he just slid the wires in with nothing holding it in place.
