Lightbar question

[Gregdad]

Ok guys, I recently installed a 42” lightbar on my Sport. Not sure of the brand as I bought it from a friend of my son but looks like a cheap eBay light. It is bright but I’m not happy with the lack of distance that the light throws.
I’ve been looking on the inter webs and keep seeing 5D and higher light bars which appear to be brighter.
Any good info from anybody on 5D and higher lights would be appreciated.
This is the light I installed.

Look at how many lumens they put out and how many watts. Also some light bars are flood lights or spot lights and or flood/spot lights. If you want distance go with a spot light configuration. Lots of top name brands out there and a lot or cheap ones that work great.

Mine is a spot/flood combo but not sure of watts or lumens. All I know is it’s not throwing the light as far as I’d like it to. From what I’ve seen, the Auxbeam 5D is waaay better at projecting light.

Check out Diode Dynamics, they have some great stuff. I have their ss6 kit for Ram trucks, wide light. I really like the light throw, again I went wide not their driving (spot) kit. They also just came out with a 'flood' pattern.

I’d also look at Rough Country, they make quality light bars.

I decided on the Auxbeam 5D spot/flood combo. They actually project light pretty far which is what I need and have lots of good reviews.

Never did show the difference in light bars. Here it is.

I went with the rough country. Instant daylight. I love it
