What's the best LED hide-a-ways used for wig-wags?
As of right now I have Feniex Cannons (2-mode) in solid white acting as a "wig-wag". Over a few months the lights have seemed to have dimmed down and the lens have both faded dramatically reducing the output.
I contacted Feniex and they sent out some "New" refurbished Feniex Cannons (2-mode) in solid white. They were not in the factory bag and did not come with the screws, gaskets or instructions just a sealed bag with just the lights. It wasn't appealing when I opened the package but that wasn't really a big issue. I luckily had spare gaskets around and used them for the newer Cannons that were sent.
I took off my bumper and installed the lights using the 1inch hole, set screws, gasket and sealed up the second wall of the headlight preventing any moisture from getting inside the light. The double walled headlight has a large gap between the layers so heat should not be a issue when it comes to the Cannons being on. I didn't bother testing the Cannons since they looked new but that's were I messed up. Put back on the bumper, wired it accordingly, and ta-da one Cannon has 2-3 LEDs that are out and the other Cannon is bright, but not as bright as it should be. I checked the voltage and it's good at 12.4VDC nothing seems to be wrong on my end.
Contacted Feniex today and they want to repair the lights I have which means I have to un-install the lights that are in there now and send them back in for repair. This leaves my headlights with a 1inch hole in them until I get another set of replacements that hopefully works. Instead I asked for a refund and I am awaiting a response...
I chose the Cannons because they are bright with 12-LEDs and my entire vehicle is covered in Feniex products. Unfortunately, getting brand new Cannons is not an option since that would be an upgrade from the 2 mode to the 3 mode. It's not my fault they quit making the 2-mode and make the 3-mode now. I'd rather explore other options for LED HAWs since I am having a difficult time from Feniex, as much as I hate to say that. I've purchased plenty of items from Feniex and love them but this is truly disappointing.
Should I contact someone else from Feniex about this issue other than the technical department?
