Opinions on LED Headlights

The Speaker lights are a bit brighter and harder to look at when you're in the vehicle heading toward them. They put out good light but, in my opinion, not so much more than the new Truck-Lites that it'd justify their premium cost. But, that's just my opinion.
The KC's are very similar to the Truck-Lite's, just made in China. Truck-Lite is made in the USA.

I have the trucklites in my jeep and am impressed with how much light they put out...
I have a jw speaker light on my harley and really like the way it looks, but don't know if it's actually that much brighter... I'm pretty sure it's not "double the price" brighter to me...
(They still look cool in a jeep though)

The Northridge guys told me that the truck lights and JWs are basically the same from a drivers view. The prior JW 8700 evo brights were not as good as the trucklites brights but you don't ever really use the brights (from Northridge guys). The new 8700evo 2's are supposed to have a much better output/pattern with brights.

The JW's definitely look cool but for double the money as truck lites not cool enough. Truck lites are still my favorite upgrade.

I have the Truck-lites and they put out a nice light, only thing that I dislike is the "X" pattern they create. it's distracting to me and even more so when I'm tired and driving at night.
For whatever reason Jeep decided not in put in left to right adjustment screws in the 2010's (not sure about other models or all USA models) but I did make some spacers just to see if I could get the X pattern gone. It worked for a little while but the wedges fell out wheeling so I will order the actual adjustment screws and install them.
I spent some time in Colorado last winter and had to stop often to clean the slush build up off so hoping the heated version work well as I will upgrade to those when available or switch to a non-LED
