G'day all,
Has anyone on here had any experience with either the "Gamma 175" or "Vega 220" Driving lights that Ironman have?
Are they any good? Does anybody know what kind of range they have?
Thanks for your help........Dan

Cheap knock offs
they will be a copy of a reputable brand that spent thousnds on research and development then ironman went and brought them from an on seller pulled them apart ,put the parts in a bag sent them to china who then coppied them using the theory that its has to be 10% different (+10% crappier)
As Ive seen them do it first hand

NO, their products are mainly manufactured in india which is even worse!!
I know of a few businesses including ours that have had stuff copied and made there.
I would recommend my customers to purchase ARB , TJM, light force or similar.

Sorry they must of changed countrys since i was last there
But i was there when they copied the bull bars ,started on the lights,coppied the fuel tanks from the new rodeo while telling the customer there was a hold up in parts supplies so they could pull his tank off and copies it,
There plasma rope whick i think has plastic in it
and the springs which they go up to repco buy king springs and rubb the part numbers off and sell as theirs,
sell the gear as Aussie made yet cant show you there manerfacturing plant

So there knock offs. 99% of the industry are knockoffs now.
So how about we answer the question. What are they like for the dollars?
