light force

[dwaynes]

Guys been looking around
http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modul ... lightforce

and still none the wise which is better blitz or xgt


as i have found somewhere advertising the 240 xgt for 239.95

[toughnut]

I had both on my roll bar at the same time and found the XGT to have a better mounting system for my application as well as a whiter light. The blitz is able to be focused like a torch. I chose the XGT's over the Blitz when it came to keeping only 1 set on the light bar.

[-Nemesis-]

I haven't owned either. But I have read that the XGT is simply the Blitz in a more robust body (i think it's the HID casing)

[toughnut]

Yeah that right but the bulbs in mine were differnent to the blitz that I already had for some reason. My blitz were 18 months old when I put the XGT's on the same bar. The casings are better on the XGT's as they are already waterproof and a plug in the back of them. A little more user friendly than the blitz. It mainly depends wher you are mounting them and which one fits better. They use the same reflectors and same bulbs just a different outer casing.

[dwaynes]

so the XGT's are worth the money then

i was just facinated that the blitz's were 370 and the XGT 239


here is the link for everone

I'mm 99% sure you'll find thats the price for each XGT. As opposed to the Blitz price for the pair mate

Don't you hate that, when you think you're onto something....

[dwaynes]

dam didn't think they sold the XGT or blitz singly

oh well back to the looking

[toughnut]

You should be able to sqeeze them down to $200 each for XGT's

I'mm 99% sure you'll find thats the price for each XGT...

There is a range of globes available for the blitz and xgt - different wattage, volts and vertical or horizontal filament. No difference in output between blitz and xgt with the same globe.

The housing for the xgt looks better, but is more bulky than the blitz, which hugs the reflector more closely. The xgt housing was originally made for the hid, which needed more space inside for the hid ballast/electrics.

On my bull bar the xgt housing fouls the top bar and can't fit, but the blitz fits fine.

i bought xgt's last week, they are sweet
has anybody tried the different covers
i was thinking the blue combo covers might be worth a shot?

[toughnut]

The combo covers are awsome. It only cuts down the spot beam marginally but the spread is more than a good trade off.

[bruiser]

I agree, combo is the go
I had spot and combo at first but recently bought another combo and run both combos.

How do you guys go fitting the XGTs to an ARB GQ bar?

I've had to fit only one spacer and the top of the light still hits the top bar. Might have to turn the light mount around but this will mean the light will stick out further than the bar uprights.

[Big Red Toy]

mount em to the roof
they work better up there

[toughnut]

I had the blitz on my GU ARB bar and they stuck out just in front of the top crossbar. No problems though.

[bruiser]

I had to get the tags cut off and re welded lower on the bar to fit em.

[toughnut]

You can mount them upside down as well if that makes them fit better. ie. you can hang them from antennae mounts on the top cross bar.
