Roo Lite Driving Lights?
Moderator: -Scott-
I have both sets on my roof as I brought a set of lightforce 240s and than 2-3 months later was offered a set of the roo light 220s for a price a could not say no too. I can switch off or on either sets on my roof and can't really see a difference in them except maybe and it is a big maybe the lightforce may go a little further in distance but it would be so little that I really can't say for sure.
I think for the money the roo lights are a really good lights and as most others on here have said are very strong. The difference in the reflector is the light force are a polycarbonite lense and the roo lights are aluminium.
The reflectors on a roo light will bend/dint and if they break on a lightforce they crack right through to inside. I have had issues with light force in the past with warrenty claims and even went as far once to refuse me a claim on a light that was only 1 month old. As for warrenty with roo lights not sure never had to send one back yet.

Go to your nearest gun shop, most shooting lights use these globes also, LF, powabeam and Roolite in 100wattnottie wrote:Does anybody know the best place to get replacment bulbs for LF lights as i have a blown one.?
I have tried lighting / electrical shops but they only carry 50w bulbs.
Also tried lighting pro online but they want 12 bucks to send a $11 bulb.
Bunnings carries 50watters aswell.
I have HID lights now, and have the old globes, they were used about 4 times since new. if you want them you can have them for $20GanG wrote:Go to your nearest gun shop, most shooting lights use these globes also, LF, powabeam and Roolite in 100wattnottie wrote:Does anybody know the best place to get replacment bulbs for LF lights as i have a blown one.?

Now upgrading to a 80watt hid kit.
Ok, my opinion on the wiring harness still remains. But as far as light quality and keeping adjustment they are shit. Wouldn't have another set ever. I have tightened up the mounts as tight as I can get them without busting the plastic bracket and they still fall down on bumpy roads. Light output is not that great either I have found.... I was considering a HID upgrade but if they wont hold position whats the point?KUSTOMV840 wrote:Got a set of these a couple months ago, very happy. Thought the wiring harness was a great set up.

Just installed a 70watt HID kit into my Roo lite 220XP's unbelievably bright! I have a 100w hunting spotlight and it doesnt come close, might HID the spotty now, lol
Had 55w HID's in them and they were great too. definately worth it.
I have pics if anyone want to see how good they are, also have a comparison between 55w and 70w

They are for sale on ebay now, very cheap but great quality. $220.00TroopiePete wrote:WoW 70W how much did this cost?
I used the H3 kit, and they must be fitted in a surround also supplied on ebay under "roo lites"
The only company i know of selling 70w fitted lights now is KC lights U.S.A for around $1000 a light! do it yourself its worth it!
I purchased a set of 55W HID - H1 Lighting kit that I have now fitted into my driving lights the kit cost around $100 from ebay.
I did an experiment by installing just one then comparing either light - WoW was my response, not only did the HID light give a very powerful spot it also give a much brighter spreed, installed the 2nd light ASAP!
Tested them out on Fraser in January - the difference was amassing.

May upgrade to the 100w kit down the track though. brighter is always better! is the 100W kit true 100W both ballast and Globe?
our 70w kits draw about 5.6 amps each @ 13.2v and the globes are a bit bigger then the 55w
the 100w kit we have is in 24 v and uses about 4.2 amps and yes the globes are that much bigger again ie when we have fitted them to ralley 4000 we have to machine the globe holder out
