Re: led lights
Alright here are the photos I just took, didn't turn out quite like I wanted them but oh well, you can get an idea of it all.
Running lights only... Brakes or blinkers...even the concrete below is glowing red = bright Parking light closeup, notice how the whole area inside is fully lit up. The camera really picks up the LED points of light, it looks more diffused than this even. I tried putting fogged lexan in front of the LED's to diffuse it more but it didn't change anything. Brake light closeup, again the whole area is fully lit up, brightly! The camera didn't pick up the led points this time(but you can see it in the ghost) so you can get an idea of how diffused the light truly is. People will know that you are stopping for sure!. My wife was coming home the other night when I was messing around with it all and commented on how bright they were without me even prompting her to notice - nice! Running lights only w/flash...this is a good eyeball representation of the diffuse nature of these LED's with headlights on them, light is going everywhere in that housing and the reflectors even make it look brighter. Dash with Kenwood cd player and cool white LED's in gauges. I painted the inside of the gauge cluster in chrome paint but I need one of those white lettered face plates so the green tinge will go away altogether...cause it sort of ruins the resto mod look I am going for here. Front running lights and sidemarkers, even light dispersion, match perfectly.. Front sidemarkers and front parking lights blinking(hazards), this photo is a bit overexposed but it just looks cool, so I had to throw it up. Notice how the garage door and house siding is so lit up by the LED's blinking at their brighter state, they will know I am wanting to turn After doing another run around with the camera tonight I was once again reminded that the money spent sure is worth it to me, but I love LED's! With just the running lights on they are the perfect brightness and match exactly at all corners...couldn't be happier! Last edited by Beatcoaster; 12-03-2009 at 10:39 PM. |
