The outer domes leaked badly around the bulkheads in an average rain, much less a downpour...at least they did on the one I had briefly, and it had the newer style orange colored gaskets.
I had always wanted one just to be different because of everyone around here running Edges, and when I finally got it in a trade, I was very disappointed. It had a cheesy random flash pattern that had no abilty to be changed. Plus, those internal filters had tiny U shaped clips molded onto them that broke off easily when the mounting screw was applied, so you had to hope one of them managed to stay on to hold it. It seemed one or two loose ones were always rattling around.
I managed to find enough amber filters to put in it and get a local tow truck owner to take it off my hands, but it didn't stay on his rig very long either.

I am trying to decide if I want to clean it up good and display it or try to sell it. I am kind of fond of it because I have never seen any used in my area. Maybe I will hang onto it and it will end up like my Strobehawk one day. Valuable not because it is such an awesome lightbar, but because of the rarity
