Epistar or CREE LEDs?

Cree I believe, but I just got mine mounted on my truck and it's really bright and performs really well at work.

This is only brightfield. I would go with the LED.... If I had to buy again.

IMHO all LED's of the high Brightness "Cree" type are "white". Not seen a green or red ..yet! Best is to open up (at your risk) and read the current LED model number and search for its source to find another colour. But it wont be easy. Personally i would rather get some of that coloured lighting filter sheets or film and cut pieces to fit inside the lens (or rubber band a piece over the lense(s) - maybe there is a cap or rubber foot with opening that just slips over the current lens. Sorry i dont have a perfect answer. (i use a piece of red film over my one torch permanently for night time astronomy. Also an opaque 'tube' +- a 'roll' of inner red film is easy to do and change from ambient white for camping/tents to red - or green- for night time use)

I don't know which would work best. I am not happy with the ones I bought. I bought the ones shown with it. The led lights are not pleasing and they use up batteries. I don't even turn them on any more.

Yes. You need a maestro that is made for a LED. It will have a CL added to the end of the model number. C is for Compact Flourescents & L is for LED'S.

I used a lyton electronic LED dimmer. Works perfect I would imagine the old triac dimmers would not work well . . .

I have only used them inside or in a drop light. I would not be afraid to try them outside if sheltered from weather and ventilated. CREE is one of the better manufactures but I have not tried them outside.

The Cree claims '10 yr life', based on 3 hrs per day. A much better indicator is total run-time. Then do the math, depending on how you will use it (... maybe it's 4hrs per day ...).Cree makes several different levels of efficiency. Not all Cree is the same quality.They tend to over-hype their products.Feit has been a reliable company, with good quality electrical components, for many years.The bulbs are instant-on and work with most older, existing dimmers. So take a chance on something different, than Cree.

?100lm? At most, Go buy the 3800lm Cree head/bike light @ 2400lm or 3800lm with the $good batterie$$. It's cheaper and worth every penny. Go to MiniInTheBox.Com you'll pay less and get it quicker than any one else.JA

I have two that are used often and the bulb still works. Neither the Joby nor the Cree site show a bulb than tiny. There's also the chance that the replacement bulb could cost as much as a new flashlight. Good luck in your search.

So far, been running (6) of them for over 6 months (normal at-home hours) and no failures. I also prefer the Cree brand but could not find them in a Par 16 fixture. Brightness is very good and they are dimmable. (must install a LED approved dimmable switch for best results though)

Halogen is hotter and uses more power ( watts ) . The LED will use less and last longer , generally more of a direct light from LED and whiter . I think its a win win for you .

The chinese cree xml 1200 lumens is brighter but not by much. Those claimed 1200 lumens are rubbish although it is still very bright, its closer to 700 lumens and the optics are way superior con the cygolite. The cygolite is more trustworthy, realiability on those generic chinese lights is a crapshoot, especially with the battery. I have both.

I would expect the CREE lite to be brighter than the Cygolite. I also have the CREE 1800 and it makes night riding like daytime. I like.my Cygo but really like the CREE because its so bright.

No they are not. You don't need cree leds. This light bar is amazing and beyond bright

Hi I bought these for my Klarus XT1C CREE XP-G R5 LED flashlight and they work great been using them steady for awhile now. I don't know what difference is between the two colors but I got the green one and they work fine
