How/why you got it – Got it through CPS, because I wanted it


Purpose/Description – My purpose is for rear warning, From CPS website


The stick consists of 8 3way LED modules for a total of 24 LEDs. The module design allows for max light output to be directed in one single direction. Two smaller brackets are attached to the housing to assist with mounting. These brackets can slide left to right along the back railing to provide better mounting in tight locations; an 8mm lock nut is used to secure the brackets in place. Included with the item are two additional "L" brackets to assist with mounting if needed. The item is ready to go out of the box! The unit is power by an attached cigarette lighter end for no hand wiring


Price is $120 + shipping


How you tested it/results – So far everything works like it should, bar is not mounted yet.

I am very pleased with both the light and the service I got from CPS and Keith, I would highly recommend doing business with CPS, I am not going to go into details, but Keith not only honored the price of this light from another dealer, but gave me a discount on top of that. I ordred the light late Wednesday night I think, and I had the light on the following Monday, I was in luck as they had one in there shop, and just put the color combo I wanted it in.


I do not have video of it yet from the inside the car, as my car has been in the shop, but I wanted to get this done, I will add video as soon as the car comes back, but I can take video of it now, if anyone wants to see video now, ask and I will .


Here are the pics of the LED stick when I got it.


Here are the pics,

This is how I found the LED stick after opeing the box

The control box





The brackets and cigar plug





Mine did not come with the hardware to secure to the mounting bracket to the brackets on the rear of the LED stick , not a big deal, but I am still trying to find the right nuts and bolts.

Good review, but it is difficult to believe that you were very thorough in critiquing the product when it scores perfect 10's in every single category. There is no such thing as the perfect product...some criticisms or less than perfect scores would have been more helpful IMO.

And I agree , but for me its perfect, for someone else it may not be, I am being honest, and I found no faults with it, the only thing I could say is I am not found of the mounting brackets, but thats just me.

+1!!! and... "How/why you got it – Got it through CPS, because I wanted it" If you are going to be this vague, why even include it?

How is the control box? I've had one of their 6 head phasers for alittle over a year now and have problems with the conector that plugs into the control module. Other than that its a good product and should serve you well.

While I think the price is fantastic on these, the one point that bothers me somewhat is the controller. Instead of being able to dial directly to the output you want, you have to cycle through the choices. And I'm assuming if you accidentally went past your desired pattern, you'd have to cycle through them again. Still I have thought about getting a six module unit (8 modules is to long for my needs).

I agree, it is a pain if you pass the mode you wanted, it would be nice to be able to pic the one you and go right to it, instead of cycling through them

Is the flasher built into the control box?
