"Shipment has been given a release by Customs." - FINALLY. You guys think it's easy, sure is not getting your own products into the states. Lots of hoops to jump through and paperwork to fill out. We should have ClaraLux in stock tomorrow now.
Tomorrow I believe. Part of my order is here in NY the other half is somewhere on Ohio for some reason (must have missed the first flight out). WHAT is in NY is beyond me. Could be just a box of resistors, could be the lights themselves. But DHL ships fast, on big jets, so even if part of our order is in Ohio, they'll end up in NY by morning and on a truck to us.
Every time you post a pic your bulbs in your truck, its this pic which doesnt tell a person anything about how they perform! You need a wall shot at about 25' away and also shots down a dark road or ally. Im done beating this dead horse on here, but come on... pics of looking at your lights head on doesnt mean a thing as far as performance goes... if yore concerned about color, then yes, but other than that...
I think 4x4truckleds knows his stuff but I see your point too. Those pics he post are useless.
4X4, this is just my opinion. (I know you're having success selling your lights). I think what most people want to see is photos proving brightness with a distinct CUT OFF. Like a perfect line. If u prove it with photos, I think that would appease the mass audience.
This is a sample. It's not my picture. I googled it and found it on this forum. (It's actually Anzos with HIDs).
Also, I'm in California and I'm talking to you all the way across damn country to get advice on lights. U think I'm be able to rely on "word of mouth" and real world experience? I don't even know another person around me with 2015+ f150.
Anyways good job on the lights, 4x4. I like how you developed those methods to keep moisture out. You'll probably get my business soon.
There are TONS of photos of our lights against walls, on highways, etc... throughout this forum. No need to plaster them in here. There was no topic about how the cut-off/patterns look, we posted a single photo because a few folks were interested in the product so we put one of the photos up we use in our marketing.
There is a whole thread about cut-offs and light patterns if anybody is interested
We do the best we can on a public forum, we can't reply to every single question or post photos non-stop... anybody who's ever emailed us knows we go into great detail one on one as we have more time and it's easier to track questions... there are a LOT of posts we look at on here and we can't post photos on every single one, then we're doing nothing but spamming photos/etc... which we try not to do.
ANd we honeslty DON'T have photos to suit everybodys needs. The only wall shots I have are against a house and against a white fence with no truck even being used in the fence photo... we're really busy these days where we have not taken time to do a proper photo shoot (I don't like to post photos unless it's done right, being a photographer I have very expensive equipment I setup and it can be a bit of work).
When the weather gets nicer we plan to do a big photo shoot to show the various styles of housings/light patterns/etc...
Long story short, we were told by an LED vendor we were carrying that we could not discount the products to you folks (our customers). We didn't like that at all. So we sourced our own line of high quality replacement LED bulbs. We never wanted to do this because it's a lot of work BUT it allows us to get you guys a better price. So we spent a LOT of time researching/trying bulbs out (luckily we had already been testing bulbs here/there).
So we're bringing in our own line of replacement bulbs. ClaraLux is one of our brands (we'll be re-packaging our XHP series to the ClaraLux brand over the next few months as well).
So we have all kinds of bulbs for blinkers/reverse lights/etc... available in the most popular lumen options.
Finally made it through... here are a few shots of some of them (there are others but no need to post them ALL right now)... product photos will be up hopefully this weekend but they are on the site for purchase now
From left to right: CL42 White (420 lumen), CL90 White (900 lumen), CL90 Red (740 lumen), CL65 Switchbacks (650 lumen), 921 White (257 lumen, they have a metal housing), CL10 Red (100 lumen)
