KC 100 Slimlite LED

I think there is a reason KC HiLites has been around so long. They make everything from junky cheap stuff that a High School kid can put on their beater to make it look tough, to high end lighting used by professionals.

I don’t have that specific model but had a pair mounted on my Jeep, where there when I bought it. They work well. I also had them on my old YJ, worked well then too.

Oh yes. When I was in High School (you know, back when you used a hand crank to start your engine...) all the cool guys put them on a rollbar in their pickup. Most of them weren't even wired. But they looked cool, with their smiley face covers.

I have not used that specific light, but KC generally makes good stuff. Even their cheap junk isn't bad; it'll work just fine, but it's cheap, so don't expect it to last forever or be as bright. On my Ram, I had some KC lights on the roll bar (I'm still a punk kid at heart) and some Lightforce monsters on the front. At the time, Lightforce was the most insanely bright lights I could find, and they were adjustable, like a maglight, to produce a wide flood, a thin spot, or anywhere in between. Lightforce is NOT cheap, but they are great lights.

First was going to go with Auxbeam 4" but no cover available .
Need a cover for when not in use .
More googling led me to Hella.
They have a 6" but omethimg about the look
rubbed me the wrong way .
Than I remembered KC. They been around forever .
Which led me to the KC Slimlite LED.
7000 lumens per light .
Will be mounted on a EVO cowl mount bracket .
Not cheap but looking at verified reviews on Amazon,
You tube and the trusted internet .lol Brught as the sun,
water and condensation proof .
Will be operated by overhead
switch pod. Will not be using KC relay or switch .
Just wondering what you guys think ?
Thanks

Those are very nice lights. A bit too pricy for me. But I`m a cheap A$$

I have a pair of 5" KCs mounted on the pillars. No the high-dollar LEDs you're looking at, but a really nice, quality product. I have the CREE LED headlights and fogs as well.
