Feniex Apollo 49" vs Federal Signal Valor

[Storm4200]

Tested in direct sunlight, from a few distances. Tried to set the bars to similar patterns.

You be the judge.

FedSig definitely has the brighter product here. There's no question that FedSig is a premium product (that comes with a "premium" price tag); however, Feniex's product is a fraction of the cost and still quite suitable.
Thanks for the vid

I agree, FedSig for the win overall. The Valor has more options and definitely out-shines the Apollo bar. BUT if you need a good dual color bar for around $1,000, the Apollo is a great choice.

I'd love to see a Cobra bar vs the Valor and see which wins. I have a feeling the punch of the Cobra might overwhelm the Valors optics.

Is it me or is the protective plastic still around the Apollo? Wouldn't that have a small effect on the output? Probably not enough to change the results, but looks like it may have a small effect.

I agree, I think the Cobra would outdo the Valor in that aspect.

Cobra vs valor optics head on; A bigger and brighter hotspot with little to no off axis? I'll stick with the valor.

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

The valor's off axis is aided by it's unique shape. The cobra is much closer optically than the wide lux is given its extreme off axis

There's no doubt the Valor is a great bar. But with almost $1200 difference in price, the Cobra makes a great and safe bar for those who can't afford a $2K+ light bar.

This comparison is like taking video of a Liberty Vs a Justice.

 

[Andrewscounty82]

two totally different type of lighthead styles and different ends of the value non value spectrum. I for one would have no problem puuting the feniex on my POV and having money left for other things

I paid $1k for my valor. Brand new. Less than an Apollo. Jus sayin.

Im sorry the optic comparisons arent good enough for you guys. As far im im concerned, they're both wide-axis optics.

There's no protective plastic on the Apollo. Lol.

My google-fu failed me, lol. I googled for the prices real quick and saw most places online we around $2K+. That definitely changes things.

I definitely thought it was a great comparison and I'd love to see comparisons to other bars too. I've never seen a Valor in person, so I don't really know how bright it really is. I only have videos to go off of. I have seen many Whelen bars, but would be interested to see multi-bar comparison.

Thanks. I thought I saw the plastic over the clear area that they put on the other Apollo/Cobra products. Hard to tell from the phone though, lol.
