The 2nd battery idea is a new one we are working on. We are looking at charging based on CANbus data so only when engine RPM is above 2000 RPM - we are considering only charging 2nd battery when the car is decelerating - so it can be sort of regen and improve efficiency. The options with CANbus control soon get quite interesting ! The device has 4 outputs so one can be 2nd battery - the other can be light bar.... that still leave 2 CANbus controlled outputs !

Would be useful to be able to use light bar off roading ! So may need it to come on at lower speeds. Or if that box is so "trick" could be able to come on in an off road mode. But I expect you have thought of that!

No is it needs to also have CANbus signal connections - its hard to find these on the car - without messing with important modules etc... the towbar connector has both power and CANbus - i accept it is not idea for front fog lights / light bars... but it has other advantages for 2nd batteries etc

Has Osram changed the hardware in their fitting kit? Your video shows stainless bolts that attach the Osram bracket/rubber vibration pad to the Powerfuluk bracket. I just received my light bar to the States and this bolt is now black and its length is much too short, it barely clears the bottom of the Osram bracket and vibration pad alone and when inserted into the Powerfuluk bracket, there is not sufficient bolt length exposed to even start to engage the nut (even without a washer). Is Osram shipping the wrong bolt? Guess I’m off to the hardware store. Also are you sure about the orientation of the light bar? All depictions of the light bar in the Osram installation instructions, show the wire leads on the left side, as you face the light bar. Cheers.

@@L663 I guess I was thinking of mounting more traditional “round” lights such as the Lazer Sentinel or Baja Designs LP9 which have a mounting bracket below and so would result in the light protruding above the roof rack.

I was thinking the same as I want to try and get a classic defender look with something like the sentinel spot lights but find a way to mounting them closer to the windscreen so they are no higher than the roof rack. The defender is already pretty high and adding even extra height with lights means it’s tough for car parks and garages. I was thinking there must be a way to use the snorkel mount holes behind the pillars to create a roof rack extension and then mount the spots spectre defender style..

Hi Simon, just a quick question, I noticed you installed the bar having leds positioned on the bottom of the lens but in the instructions and pictures it shown fitted with leds on the top of the lens(there is no clear instructions of position of the leds), I was wondering if makes any difference having leds on top or on the bottom?
@L663
@L663 2 жыл бұрын
This is a good point - to me the LED's should not be visible just the reflector so i thought it made sense to have it with the LED's at the bottom. I need to check with Osram and look at the beam pattern. Still waiting for the CANbus module to be finished !

Thanks Simon, I like this light bar. On looking at other installs, It makes me wonder if there is not a can bus hookup under the bonnet. A good example is the Vulkan automotive Pod light, which looks a lot easier to cable to power under the bonnet. They don't seem to have a CAN hookup though for main beam. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f8plea6p0Z_Gnac.html

Yes i think the Vulcan control is just by a manual switch inside - watched the video - a little worried there is no fuse but overall an excellent product.

@@L663 Agreed. I guess an inline fuse could be added though. I was wondering if there was a canbus line that could be tapped on the drivers side lamp cluster as well to get main beam support. Could make neater.
