I wasn't going to but what the hell.
Put me in for a 42"
Do you have any pods that are diffused like Rigid, for task lighting? I would like to use them at the corners of my roof rack.

Flood will be your best bet for task lighting. I have a 10W pod, I can swing by Lowe's and pick up a hazed sheet of lexan and experiment. That will be after finals though
. I've been playing with red film, yellow, and several other colors to see if I can change the output color.
No worries, I will just go with the large roof mounted bar for now. I have some flush mount rigid D-series that I bought for another use and will just take them back and try and exchange them for the diffused dually's.

I do plan on working on a diffused lens, just not at this time. I want to release stuff slowly
. Keep the fun going.
I may have missed it somewhere but are the dimensions listed to the ends of the mounts or to the end of the housing?
I measured my bumper and I have ~21.5" to work with and I want to mount the bar between the two side plates and I want to make sure that it will fit.
I should get my order in by Monday. Got a couple buddy's that are going to piggyback on my order so once I get theirs down I will be ready to email.
Thanks

End of the mounts. The absolute widest part. No worries on when the order is placed, just let me know when you are ready.
emails/PM's answered tomorrow. I need sleep!
PM sent for 8 lights. Thanks Nick!
I can't decide between two pods or a 7.5" bar. I am also considering three pods up front and one in the back but the one in the back is not necessary. How would the three pods compare to the single 7.5"? I apologize for all of the questions.

As stated before, three different lights will have 3 different patterns, I prefer a single beam as there is no break in the pattern, it's much cleaner. There are also 8 less wires to add with the 3 pods The only advantage with the pods, is different aiming. But that can be achieved with a flood pattern, much cleaner as well. It's your final call, just let me know.
Thanks!
(emails in AM)
Nick, you have the 30" bar and a pair of 2x2s on your 100, do you use them all together? You mention above about different patterns, etc.
I ask because I am thinking of doing a 21" bar and a pair of 2x2's on my DD pickup. Was thinking the 21" should be a flood with the 2x2's being spots, or all spots, or 21" flood and spot pods for side lighting? Very random but just want to make sure I get the best pattern out in front of me.
Also, single bar for the 80, 21", recommend a spot or flood pattern? What does Dan have on the LX?

I don't use the 2X2's on the street due to glare to oncoming traffic. I'm a bit obsessed with no glaring oncoming traffic. Dan has a 21" spot and it has very good distance. I'm not a fan of flood for several reasons. LED Light bars already provide a good bit of ambient lighting (all types), so a flood simply reduces your distance. I would think a 21" spot, and two flood 2X2's for side lighting would be a good combination.
I have. See below
I have received all emails. However I'm studying for finals and will be doing so until Wednesday morning. My final is at 8AM, after that I am going full speed on this project. I didn't think this group buy would get so wild, I am doing my best to juggle calc, accounting, and emails this week. I don't reply to them until I have time to sit down and add the information to the order sheet, that way I do things in pairs. and can't possibly miss or overlook somebody. Please bear with me for the next 48 hours guys. Both finals and this GB have quickly become overwhelming. Once finals are over, things will be taken care of much quicker

Invoiced are starting to go out! For those of you with un-replied emails, please check your inbox soon as I am working on them tonight. My brother is sending invoices out, please verify the order is correct before you pay. Please email me if you have any questions.
Update: Sent out around 20 tonight. Between now and Wednesday the others will be sent. Deadline for payment is the 14 of DEC. Order HAS to be placed by the night of the 15th. There is about 80 lights on the way, if you factor pairs as two units, make that about 140 lights. This will be a busy Christmas! Remember, after the 13th of DEC, orders are closed, and you'll have to wait until I gather my brain from this one.
Update 2: I just noticed my cell # is on each invoice. If you need to get ahold of me regarding something between now, and DEC14, please email or call. It's up to you. Reasonable hours, I don't work at a night club, so anything after 12PM or before 8AM is probably going to be sent to voicemail
