Light Bar
Decided to get a LED Light Bar, and WOW! It be bright! Mounted it to the front basket where it shouldn't get banged or hit by tree branches. The rear lights were bright, but the front one, pics or vids can't do it justice. 20 inch 126Watt Light Bar with the brackets you can slide around underneath, not on the ends of the Light Bar itself. Two 27Watt lights on the rear.
Got it out in the back pasture with the factory EZGO lights, then hit the switch and did a circle looking for eyeballs. Coming back up, left it on and it really lit the whole trail up. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] Vid of the lights. [IMG][/IMG] |

Re: Light Bar
Thanks for the post. I often thought about LED lights, but didn't know any body that ran em. What were you using for headlights before, and what kind of amperage do they draw?

Re: Light Bar
I first heard about the light bars on here. I have the factory lights, but it was like using a bicycle light to me. Gas EZGO, so not worried about battery going dead (unless the S/G fails). Then mounting. Another member here mounted on top of their roof. I don't wanna lose the investment to a tree branch nor have holes in the roof. I had no problem with it being mounted about 44 inches off the ground and seeing way out there, so height mount isn't affected here.
Ebay, and there are two types of mounting. The ones with brackets on the end run around 99 bucks, the one I got runs about 132. Personal preference. |

Re: Light Bar
I don't have a good place to mount mine yet, but once I have the engine swap done, I'm thinking about a Bimini top, and that might be the best spot for me.
How about a couple shots with the lights turned off so we can see them? |

Re: Light Bar
Ebay 261347961797 Leaving town for a week, gonna try and stop in to see Geoff at Vegas Carts shop in person. Be a couple of weeks before I get back to the EZGO. But if you look in some of my pics and vids, you'll see the front basket, I mounted it right on top at the front. No interference with fold down windshield either.

Re: Light Bar
He said the fronts were 126 watts to at 12v they would draw 10.5 amps. The rears were 27 watts so at 12v they would draw 2.25 amps. That's 12.75 amps for both front and rear.

Re: Light Bar
Dang that's a lot of amps for led's. But I'm guessing they are way brighter than any halogen at those amps! I'm considering these lights, but in a lower amp version. I run a standard starter/gen so I'm not sure it can handle that kind of amperage, will prob draw the battery down? I can, however, attest to how bright LED's can be and verify that these pics prob don't do it justice. Wish I could see in person.
