Default Great Day: Rigids, OTRATTW's, and an Electrical Engineer





A good deal from TAP for the bar, cool switches, and finding an electrical engineer who specializes in automotive in the Philly burbs at http://www.shortcircuitsautomotive.com/, and 5 hours later in the shop, I got these pics below. A little light wiring left for tomorrow and the job is done. How did I get this lucky? A "sparky" engineer who does car stuff better, faster, and at less cost than a dealer or most mechanics? Makes me want to buy more electrical toys!

Thanks for the compliments, but without TAP's great deal on the 10" E2 Bar a few weeks ago, I'm not sure I could have gone with the Rigid's. That said, I'm so glad I did. Like many have said on here, most of the time, you get what you pay for. Tried them out tonight and even the 10" Bar has unbelievable brightness and throw. If you really need usable light, you'd be hard pressed to surpass the performance of the Rigids. When I'm up in Maine, it's just plain black on my tree covered road and harvesting deer is fine, but not by vehicular homicide!

By the way, that 4th switch for rear lights is not hooked up to any lights. I'll be calling you guys when I have a little extra $ to get the backup lights to keep the switch company!
