I have messed with various lighting equipment for years. Recently acquired a bunch of Amber lightbars, minibars and beacons. A couple are going on my tow truck, the rest are available for sale or trade, I am interested in small LED's, hide away strobes, or extra long lightbars 68-84", and a control head for a Whelen Messenger. etc. I have pictures and some videos of them. have made some custom bars. I am old-school and do like the old rotating lights. I have a Whelen Centurion that i combined 2 bars into one with front a rear arrows and counter rotating lights . see video. Open to discuss trades and sales as well as discussion on technical aspects.
Some videos here.

Thanks, will do when I decide what to ask for them or can I just take offers, what are the going rates? I find amber sell higher (maybe not here) because most states you can use them on vehicles legally

Welcome to eLB! Lots of fans of the old school bars here, but plenty of knowledge on new ones, too. I like the counter-rotating Centurian bar! Nicely done! :)

here is a pic of my full length bars, All available for trade or sale. 20180503_115811.jpg

These are going on my Rollback toy hauler. The large light traffic advisor is going on the front of the cab (it's a COE Isuzu FRR) the other one is going on the roll bar on the bed and will move bqack about 10 feet when i roll the bed back, it also angles. The rear bar also has a half height traffic advisor and 2 strobes in the middle, top. Need a set of red lenses as the clear lights on the rear are going to be brake and turn signal lights.

Here is the Code 3 RX 2700 that I have for sale.

And my customized Centurion that I'm planning to put on my truck.
2 Centurion lightbars plus 2 rotators out of a Whelen Guardian 150. 6 total plus center reflectors. Counter rotating beacons. Front and rear arrowbars running off a Code 3 arrowstik because it had left and right turn signal input. Going on my Rollback tow truck. Thought about adding strobes or LED's. But couldn't bring myself to mess with the classic style. (Also located in Frakenbar thread)

My latest purchase, Anyone interested in complete bars or parts, just contact me. These all had the Golight or Night Probe spotlight mounts, only have what is seen in picture. They all have front and rear 8 light LED arrowsticks and a pair of strobes up top on each side. One nice thing is that the large arrowstiks use 1156 bulbs which can be swapped out for LED bulbs fairly inexpensively. Those bars are paired to run of the 5 light Arrowstik controller.

2 different wired remotes, I ordered a wireless remote for the golight to see if it will work, the code 3 lights are all set for wired and wireless remote but finding the wireless ones is a challenge, called code3 and waiting for a call back. They come with in bar controllers that are all labeled on the circuit board so making your own remote would be easy enough. One of the remotes I have is made buy larson electronics for the Golight is listed on their website for $8999.99. Might need to print that out and save as a collectible. Golight told me larson is one of their partners and made that remote for them. https://www.larsonelectronics.com/p...controller-for-gl-3049-w-and-gl-3049-w-m.aspx. since discontinued
wired remotes?

Here is the brackets I made to mount some LED flood lights (ebay generics) into the center of the Excaliburs. Nice white light and oval pattern from the ebay floods, Quite impressed for the price. No idea why they are upside down, Tried 3 times after rotating them and uploading

I thought this was a typo, but it is not. Why is it so damn expensive????
No idea, but I'll sell you one for half price! Golight told me that Larsen it's one of their "partners" and modified the units and made that controller themselves. There is an extra harness with about 18 or so wires coming out of the Golight that plug into this controller.
