I'd say they are more of a 6K.

Legal? I don't see why not. they are not red or blue.

I ran mine in my old set of lights for a while, no issues with the coppers out here.

And......I already thought about painting that thing. Not sure how hot these get (I plugged one in for 3 minutes) - so I'll need to do a test on that first. But.......possibly. :hmm:

if they can be painted let me know, cause i would love to get them if they can be painted.

Musclemckeester · Sep 11, 2012

Hmm somebody placed their order already... :naughty:

I'll find out about painting them...no chrome will go on my truck

thinking I'll hit it with some high heat paint just to be sure.

I can't see these things getting that hot. I'll test it out tomorrow!

Chaney said:
Hmmm 6k? Damn... Hope they don't have to much of a blue tint... I like pure white :/

just blinded myself again, I think its a toss.......LOL - they aren't really blue, but a tad! if that makes sense.

take a look at the clipboard. not a lot of blue there.

For reference, the towels hanging are blue shop towels. white box there on top of the inverter.
