Are they local? How are the prices compared to Rigid and Combat LED?

Here are a few screen shots. It looks like for the mounts they redirect you to other sites but CREE lighting and made in the US? Doesn't seem too bad to me.

I guarantee they are not made in the US

Crees are made in China I believe, as are most all LED lights. Perhaps it's a marketing ploy like "assembled in the USA" or maybe the housing is made in the USA.

Who knows. The pricing seemed good and I haven't heard too many good things about the build quality of Combat. Just wondering if anyone had any feedback about Apex.

Sorry I wasn't really answering the question. So no, I do not have any experience with them. Good luck

One thing that I'm seeing as not so much of a problem as it is questionable, is that I'm having a hard time even finding the company on google (which I did find after some searching).
I have a 50" Rigid E-Series and though not friendly to your wallet it's amazing. I do know that rigid lights are assembled here in AZ however I'd assume that they are getting their parts from somewhere over seas (though I'm not positive).
The price for the apex lights looks great but I think that with a price tag so low there is something fishy going on. Whether they lie about where they are made or possibly that the craftsmanship just isn't there. All in all if you are looking for a light bar or any sort of LED lighting I'd have to point you toward rigid (saying that money isn't necessarily a factor). Whatever you go with though I'm sure you will enjoy... I get a kick out of mine haha!

Not That Kind of Engineer
Those 3" ones on the bottom are the same ones I got from eBay for 60 bucks. Notice the water inside. Never buying cheap lights again.

Caught the Bug
A buddy of mine has these, not as bright as he hoped and yes the seals are garbage and get water in them very easily:twocents:

What have you heard about combat?

A friend got a set of combats and he said they weren't that bright and the quality seemed pretty bad. Then I saw them and agreed with him. The diodes looked pretty cheap and the reflector didn't seem like it would project light very well.

I wish I could afford a rigid but I just can't so looking at other options. Thanks for the feedback.

I saw another company called fcklightbars on Instagram. They are a little cheaper than rigid but I'm not sure about the quality. Maybe someone on here knows more

I'd be interested to hear about them too.
