M&R vs. Rigid vs. KC's

[fishrmunn]

Looking for input and experience with some lighting options. Has anyone actually compared side by side a 40" M&R light bar to a Rigid? I've never seen either in person. The stock headlights on my '12 are disappointing at best and I was looking into a light bar to brighten things up. Obviously M&R saves a lot of money, but how is the quality and distance on back roads in wide open country? I also have a set of 6" 130w KC daylighters off my old super duty that were a lot brighter than the stock headlights. I was thinking about combining them with another set of long range HID lights on a bar mount as well. Do the LED light bars really light things up better and further than my KC's combined with another new set would? Thanks in advance!

You really can't go wrong with rigi or M&R they bothake amazing lights and are great companies it's really personal preference and what you're looking for in a light but I'd check out both I know a lot of people here have M&R or rigid they'll say the same thing!!

The LEDs are so bright I doubt you'd see a noticeable difference even side by side. I have 20" and a 40" and they are fantastic.

My M&R lights went on today. Don`t have the truck back yet but, if it helps the installer thought they were Rigid lights until I pointed out where they are from. He looked closer, then I told him the cost.... He said "I need those."

Just had a complete M&R kit installed this week. 30" + 40" + Fogs

Personally,

I support USA made products, I stay away from Chinese made items whenever I have the choice and I absolutely love my Rigid lights. Yes they are more expensive but that is worth my extra money to have something totally made in the USA

Are you looking for a spot beam pattern or more of a general area/flood pattern?

i just got my second M&R light - 40" today. I think it really depends on what you want to spend but you'll be blinded by any of them.

I know it's not on the list, but I'm pretty tempted by the 20" Vision Xmitter Prime Extreme....
