gravity2oo4 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I am looking for suggestions on what kind of battery and led bar combo to wire up to run while riding at night. I am going to eventually do the whole dc conversion thing but before I do, I want to rig up a light temporarily to run off a battery that I can charged when not riding. Anybody have a setup like this? Just wondering how long I could run a light on a battery alone. Let me know what yall think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hp2000 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I use a 12v 12amp emergency battery and last me a long time no dc conversion. I'm running a dual row 12" 72w light bar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hp2000 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Interesting. More detail please. Who's light bar? Price? Mounting where and how? Light bar is Outlaw led dual Row combo 12".Paid about $190 Custom mounts to stock location. Battery I will get the pic and info tonight but it's mounted on a tray in the front under hood. No dc conversion just on/off from a switch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 How much run time do you get from it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hp2000 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 How much run time do you get from it? About 3 tanks of ridding maybe a little more on this set up, with my friends Baja designs light bar longer because it draws less power and same lumens. When I hit up glamis for a weekend I charge it before we leave and have yet to charge it while I'm there.

do-work-son Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Those are pretty sweet. Need JDS to start making some brackets that will mount led bars now. Something like this would kinda be cool [/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
