I have some ceiling mounted fluorescent's but only halogens for side body detailing/correcting.

With summer and warmer weather closing near,I was looking for another source of light besides my halogens (3 dual 500 watt and 1 single 500 watt) that get quit warm in the winter-let alone the summer.

1st some daylight shots:

I think the LED light's are a great alternative for halogen's for they throw off no heat.I will be picking up a few more of them so I'm not sweating my kahunas off when the temp's climb to the 80's-90's,this summer season.

I just did a search and found that they're "Smart Electrician" brand, sold at Menard's. There's a single-head one for $40 and the dual head tripod one pictured is $100.

Maybe after they are out for a while the price may drop. I was just talking to another detailer last week about coming up with a set-up similar to this . Glad to see these being offered. Thanks for the posting. :xyxthumbs:

I too like the longevity of LED's and the fact that they throw little to no heat.

Thanks Charlie! :dblthumb2:

Your Welcome.
Just thought I would post this thread to give others some alternatives to the heat generating halogens.

What are the specs on light output - lumens, etc?

Since there's no Menard's anywhere near me and these lights aren't available for purchase online I've been sniffing around to see what other brands EML Technologies makes these lights for. No luck... but I did find some reasonably priced 500w halogen bulbs. I have trouble finding 'em when I need 'em, might as well stock up.
