    Whelen Pioneer , Whelen WWL200 .. Whats the difference???

    Ok so im a little confussed here guys as i am not big in keeping up with whelen. I have seen the dual pioneer and love it and want one for my pushbar but backed out after looking at the prices. So I found someone who has a Whelen WWL200 dual led floodlight, it looks just like a pioneer in a way to me. After trying to research I couldnt find anything on Whelens website or anywhere on the internet besides one on Ebay which I have bid up to $250 on for 2 months and its always reserve not met. A guy I have been talking to has a brand new Dual head WWL200 with bail bracket brand new in the box and he said he would help me out and let me have it for $200!?!? Idk if thats a good price because i cant find it. Problem is I already purchased a pair of Sound Off 1400 Lumen Flood work lights and got them in today which im going to hook them up and test tonight.

    QUESTIONS:
    1) is that a good price? and if i got it and decided to resale it could i atleast make my money back or a little extra cash?

    2) what is the lumens on it? I know my Sound Off lights will be 2,800 lumen when both on.

    3) Does the WWL200 flash like the pioneer

    4) WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?


    Here is a pic of the Pioneer of course:


    Here is a pic of the WWL200 light head *this picture is taken from the one listed on ebay and photo doesnt belong to me*:

    I believe the WWL200 was the predecessor to the dual pioneer super led.

    The Micro Pioneer is going to be super bright, comes with interchangable lenses for different beam patterns, and a lot cheaper than any full sized Pioneer lamp. Not as aesthetically pleasing as a Rigid lamp but I was sold at interchangable lenses. My dealer should be bringing some in soon.

    I was watching many of these lights on eBay, howvere, I never bid on any of them. I think I'm going with some rigid lights.

    I have some rigids... but I kinda wanna try some whelen. My thought process is "never enough takedown/scene lighting....... if their not getting a sunburn, I'm not too bright"

    Tell you what, tell me who is selling it for $200 and I will buy it myself.

    The WWL200 & WWL100 are discontinued work lights and have nothing to do with the Pioneer. They are designed to be work lights for public works or anyone that needed a flood light for working at night. The newer Pioneer lights pretty much made them obsolete.
