So Ive been holding off on posting the review for these lights for a couple days. Here it is:
Packaging: The box got ripped somehow the day it was to be shipped, so USPS called Keith. he knew I needed these lights for an install ASAP so he called me and made sure it was ok to just go ahead and check out the lights to make sure they were ok, then used copious amounts of tape to secure the box ( which I was fine with)
The lights arrived undamaged. packaging was alright, but not overly impressive. But decent.
Out of the box: The 6 head rx2 Stick had 2 kinds of brackets. an extended L- type bracket, and just a basic deck mount bracket. The slimline had a dual, single suction cup mount just like the whelen slimlighter. I'll speak more about mounting later
Output and quality: I found that the output and quality of both the 6 RX2 stick and the slimline freedom were Excellent. I was very impressed and they honestly seemed just as bright as 1 watt LED's in name brand manufacturers products. The slimline was very light and the suction cups hold it up well ( Ill talk more about the mounting, shortly) The Rx2 Stick has a very solid construction and is supposed to be mountable outside, not sure If i would of not. It's very happy on the rear deck though.
Brackets/ mounting: . The Slimline's bracket is basic and gets the job done. the suction cups hold well. The Rx2: I used the 2 deck mounts to mount it. There were 4 bolts in a square-shaped channel on top of the light ( I guess for if you wanted to mount it like that). I had to unscrew one of the end caps ( which broke the water seal) to slide them out so they didn't slide around since I wasn't using them.. when I tried to screw the end cap back on, the 3 screws did not line back up and wouldnt go in all the way. Then, there were 3 of 1 type of screw and 1 of another type to screw on the cheap deck mounting brackets. I'll have pictures and videos tomorrow.
Overall
1-10
Construction/quality: 7
Output: 8
mounting: 6
Summed up: Great lights with awesome output and seem to be very solid. Just hate the mounting options. Hopefully this is something that the manufacturer can improve upon soon.. because that's hindering these lights from being AWESOME in my opinion. Like I said, pics and videos coming tomorrow
