+1 on the blackout on the reflector tops.Richard P said:On the bottom, they face up.
The top of the reflector needs to be blacked out, the sun shines off it and its brighter than the LEDs. Plus theres no "snap" you get the same constant intensity of the leds, you just see a blink on, then off.
Jared @ 911Lights said:They have been out for a while, 2 years at least, they are pretty impressive in person, the price has been the main factor that I have seen keeping them out of the market, still they have a good following on the Amber side. The Amp draw is 2.6 Amps, much less than the 8.6 Amps that a Halogen Highlighter Draws.

Yeah it's 1/3 the amps of a halogen bar but it's 1/3 of 8 or 9 amps which isn't much. Things like the new rotating federal signal V bar are super cool and a great toy.... but I'll take a stationary LED bar with a slow flash rate with the same colors flashing together in big blocks over any rotator.... halogen or LED. Back when strobes were the next cool thing I thought they were an answer to a nonexistant problem too. We had one ambulance with strobe 9x7 lights and one with halogen 9x7s and the halogen was more visible and you could track the distance better. There will always be cool toys out there, but a well setup simple system wins hands down every time in my opinion.....
Post hijack over...
the ecco unit is an interesting concept, similar to the old federal and dazl rays with a bulb in the base and a rotating mirror over it.
