Is the amount of light sufficient in a 12V application? I plan to use the light on an off-road cart. Thanks in advance for any help.

99% of vehicles are 12v--I mounted on my Rhino (12V) well pleased with the light output--any more would be useless

I added this light to my Rhino & the light bar gives an amazing amout of light to drive by in the dark . We 4 wheel in the Tennessee mountains & my light assists the other riders

I have 3 polaris 4 wheeler with these on them and love it perfect size and lights up the whole trail 6 times as bright as the factory, I also have the bigger 2' light on my polaris rzr and that will blind you a mile away excellent for riding, superb quality I have other led lights 3 times as much and don't even come close to rupse lighting, just buy a quality switch and you'll be good to go hope this helps

Yes. I out the light on the rear of a polaris ranger and use it for a bed light and backup light. Works great

I was surprised how bright it was, I use it on a small tractor, it's brighter than the headlights. Only thing would be if you're going to travel at a high rate of speed not sure it would throw a beam far enough but assuming you're not doing 50 mph at night down a dirt trail it should be fine. Plenty of light for tractor but I'm never doing more than 20mph

Id recommend the 12 volt for optimum lighting. If you use a lower voltage your lighting will be dimmer.

Personal opinion is I wouldn't us this on a motorcycle, it's a thin plastic box and will most like be visible (not attractive to look at).. It works good and can support Output power: 5V&lt;40W,12V&lt;96W,24V&lt;192W. So you will need to add up how much W your lights will need. If you don't care about Looks or can hid it (which may prevent the wireless part from working haven't tried that) it should handle the load fine, but check the needed output from your lights. You bike is probably not a 12V battery either so that will limit it, as I'm sure you want your bike to start as well. Hope that answers your question

As long as the running lights are powered up, this light should piggyback just fine. It's LED, so uses very little power, yet lights up very brightly.

The answer from Matt G. is correct for a back-up light. Remember for 12v with this product the white should be ground (- or negative). The red & black wires are both + or positive for what ever application you are using. To test, use a standard 9v battery and test the wires for LED polarity (to see what lights the LED's.)

I too have 2 extra lights, the ones with 12 led bulbs. I used 2 for the license plate lights, 1 for cargo area, 1 for globe light, and 2 map lights. Very bright, makes finding things in your truck at night a thing of the past. I noticed that the rear globe light has a very small amount of light coming off it when the vehicle is off; any ideas? I've had them in my xterra now for about 1 year, still going strong.

My lamp, shipped 7-2012, uses 3.24W, 270ma @ 12VDC. You have brought up my only complaint with this item. Because these SMDs are wired as 12 sets of 3 chips in parallel, and each chip should be driven at 20ma max, optimally this board should be configured to draw 240ma, which it does at 11.75VDC. At 12VDC each chip draws 22ma, or 10% over its design specification. Since autos often supply 14V, in some applications the 'bulb' will run hot and not last as long as it should.

I live on a small 5 acre lot wooded, so I may not be the right person to answer this :) This light is VERY bright compared to a lot of the crap lights I have bought.The brightest setting is to bright for my use, In my chicken shed or walking out to my wood barn. I wood say in a field this thing would lamp it up !!! I think your dad would be very happy ! I also bought the GOOD rechargeable batteries !!! Good Luck Merry Christmas :)

Good Morning! My Maglite has a very bright light @ 50'. I'd compare it to one of them "handheld spotlights", you plug into your vehicle cigar lighter. My flashlight model is "RE1019". If you get this model, it comes with a adapter for your vehicle to charge you light. It's very easy to go from 120 VAC to 12VDC. Just unplug the part going to your outlet and plug in the part for your vehicle. Go to Sports Academy and buy extra bulbs!

we use the brightest 3528 SMD LEDs for these GRV brand LED Bulns,It about 95~120 Lumens when work at DC12V ~13V ,but Cann't use for more than 13V DC ,maybe become very hot more than 13V and short lifetime,maybe too hot and will Burned soon if input voltage above 14V DC,Someone said Burned out soon due to some new RV output about 14V Voltage,please confirm voltage is about DC12V when install it,thanks!thanks!

Hello my friend Ernesto, Kindly note that the input voltage for this downlight should be 100v-145v. It's not in 12 volt. If you want to get LED lights in 12V, I would recommend you to consider MR16 LED lights, which are in 12 volts. For more details, you're more than welcome to contact Lemonbest freely. We're always here for your help. Nice day. Regards Lemonbest

It is! It doesn't light up far ahead of cart but is plenty bright to drive 10 mph. I use them often and never had any trouble seeing the road. If you're really concerned buy the version with twice the output if you have money to blow.

Hi Dustin, 13.8-14 volts is ok, but please make sure the electric current is more than 400 mA. if current is less than 400 mA, the brightness will be darker.

I run it at 12v, I'm 90% sure it's 250 lumens at 12v. It is very bright. I would highly recommend.

We use it on 12volt DC lights. Great for off-grid. Uses less watts and much brighter than other 12 volt bulbs.

I am using it as a headlight on my Ariens snow blower (factory light is horrible). Briggs & Stratton alternator produces 12VAC. The light is dim at idle and flickers but, as soon as I bump the throttle up it makes a nice clean bright light. I have used it now for 2 seasons and it has been working great, I'm getting ready to buy another.

helloFor my night road tryning on the road bike is very useful, I do in Mexico than the road are very dangerous than the US, the wide headlight efective ahead is around 120° to 150° , maybe is the only weak point i detected for this item, but is a very powerfull light for only 360 lumens
