b1g_dav3 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Put some CREE's in my main beam, could drive round all day with them on without blinding people, look cool how the unit is lit up - but then the purpose of a main beam is to be bright, so unfortunately I'd say not for beam's at all. Mainly did as a test rather than actually going out and trying them on an evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been stung myself when purchasing pivot voltage stabiliser kit, waited 5 weeks to recieve it, Then went out in monsoon conditions to fit it, To find its a replica of the original and will drain the battery instead of condition it.

Podzak Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I'd buy some but my reversing lights AND rear wiper on a mk3 mondeo estate have stopped working. checked the bulbs n fuses, ok. No idea where to look now. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podzak Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I fitted one of these (not a bad price given you get two) a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the tint to the rear of my car is so dark it hasn't really made much difference to reversing but it is definitely brighter http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-7w-Blanc-1156-BA15S-Cree-Q5-LED-SMD-Feux-Arriere-Tuning-Frein-Ampoules-Lampe-/280845238161#ht_4009wt_1397 Try fitting some mirrors m8. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justgotast170 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I Know you don't like the Chinese LED's: But http://dx.com/c/car-accessories-799/car-lights-723/car-led-bulbs-712 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Thanks, but will the fuse do with 50 watts... ?Yes the standard factory fitted fuse will be fine mate,The 50 watts is the power of light emmited that is equivilant to the 12v cree led bulb, All cree BA15s bulbs have built in resistors which allow them to function in both 12v and 24v supply instantly, The leds use 12v power to produce 50 watts of light from the leds thats the beauty of cree I Know you don't like the Chinese LED's: But http://dx.com/c/car-accessories-799/car-lights-723/car-led-bulbs-712 I don't dislike Chinese LEDs or dislike anything from china,I have done a lot of business with suppliers from china over the years receiving quality items at great value prices, The issue I have found is there are replica counterfeit stock on the market claiming to be Cree but failing to function at all when purchased at the cheaper price. As result I'm sceptical about purchasing Cree from china as they do export replica stock of cree bulbs which have been proven to be disfunctional by many members of this forum. Other LED Bulbs and smd pads I've purchased from china have worked and continue to function for me 100% But the cree replicas unfortunately don't.
