The LX40 lights are fantastic. Super bright, well dispersed lighting pattern. My friend nerSTeve has the LX5's, which are $150.00 each and 5000 lumens versus $100.00 and 4200 lumens on the LX40. Due to the focus and reflectors of the LX 40's, they look as bright if not brighter than the LX5's when running down a dark road side by side. You will love these lights, on high they are amazing for their size. Like I mentioned, mine start out at 50% when running low beams, and people still flash me all the time because they are too bright. If you combine these lights with a good LED headlight upgrade, it is awesome for driving at night. With my other driving lights on high, and the LX40's, and headlights on high, I am throwing 22,400 lumens down the road. You will LOVE these lights!!
Also, and this is good info for all riders to know, LED Rider is an awesome company to deal with, who stands 110% behind their products.
I started with the LED Rider LR4's, and sadly had some issues with them, I had 3 stop working in 4 or 5 months. The second time, I was down south on a 10 day trip to the Dragon, Blue Ridge, Etc, Etc. On Friday one of my LR4 lights failed. I emailed the company from a parking lot in some small town, and kinda firmly asked them to send me a new light next day air, and have it delivered to Fontana Dam resort, where I would be arriving on Monday to stay a couple days. Most companies would laugh at that request, but LED Rider did exactly as I requested, and when I got to the resort on Monday, there was a next day package with a new light for me waiting when I got there. I swapped it out, and shipped the old one back when I got home.
A month later, the other side went out. I sent it back to them, and they sent me an apology email, and agreed to upgrade me up the the LX4's in exchange for the LR4's. After testing all 3 lights, and finding they were defective, they made it right with great customer service. BTW, the LX4's have been bulletproof so far, in the rain, lots of rough and unpaved roads, not even a hint of a hiccup. I would by products from this company again any day.
