Pricing is not locked in 100% but will likely be $699.00 for the complete kit with 4 - Cubes / Brackets / Wiring / Install Instructions

Also keep in mind these are bright and a very solid little lights. We at KC HiLiTES present lumens at actual working lumens not calculated on paper like most. As the number may be slightly lower you may be slightly shocked at the light output when installed!!!

I like them but for $699 I'd have to think twice. If we get a group buy together I might consider.

I can tell you I have a set of KC hilites from about a year ago. These are bright and look good and really are twice as bright as my Rigid D2.... There not a cheap light but when you use them it is clear why they are more money...

How could these be twice as bright as a D2? KC 1800 Lumens each, D2 3030 Lumens each.

Ice could be talking about any KC light. They're all called hilites.

Seems if you want the brightest 3x3 LED (cost no object), the Baja Squadrons are the way to go. 3600 lumens @ $300 each.:waytogo:

Looks like the Squadrons are about twice the price for another 570 lumens, can't justify that.

I can tell you 100% the D2's are highly over rating the light output. I have a pair and they are not 3000 lumens. They might be 3000 lumens per pair.

The KC's are brighter and have a much better beam pattern than the D2's for a hood mounted application.

It's too bad that all the lights are not rated the same way so that a fair assessment could be made.

Also for instance, I have a 30" KC LZR LED Bar. 12,000 lumen. It is easly 2-3 times brighter than the 30" LED bar I previously had.

No ones ratings are the same. Much like Dyno ratings.

Is your 30' bar part #1325, 180W I am looking at that one on sale at the moment?
