Stedi Type-X Pro Review (Unboxing/ DIY Install/ Testing)
Рет қаралды 100,967
4 жыл бұрынTime to replace my broken spotties.
Its a perfect chance to upgrade to something decent; Stedi Type-X Pro LED driving lights.
Thought I'd film an unboxing, install and some initial testing of them. I'll keep you all posted on how they go in the future (I'm confident they'll last a bloody long time).
Cheers,
Cam

Excellent review and as an owner of Stedi LED lights for a few years now, I agree with everything you said. The company based in Melbourne, is also very easy to deal with. That's another bonus.

Great review. I just replaced Kings 7" lights with a set of these love them. The Kings lights had massive interference and wiped out my am and faint fm stations when they were on. These Stedi lights have the quality suppression of a more expensive light. Recommend them.

I've been looking at these for ages now - still a stefi $220 light bar which is 4 years old now and still working perfectly so can't quite justify it yet but the pro X will be the next set. Stefi are simply amazing build quality for the price. Have a 32" king's bar in the roof and it's not bad (cos it was free with a VMS) for spread - that combined with the 22" stedi spot)spread bar does the job well for the price

Nice review. Hoping to get some on the front of my Jeep XJ soon. In America the main three light brands are baja designs, rigid and KC. Baja designs have great lights but they cost 900 per light. Rigid is just as expensive. KC makes an affordable light, but they don't put out anything close to what the others do. I only wonder how the Stedi will do in cold climates were they use a lot of salt on the roads.

ill add a foot note...not all headlights assemblies are the same plugs as the 2 that come with the set. PLUS on my Fiat work van the lights are on a CanBus system and you need to remove the whole headlight and tap the wire directly to the rear of the High Beam globe fitting. anywhere else and your letting gremlins in. you need to be on the globe side of the Headlight CanBus reader unit.

Yeah I've only used the one middle bolt. Probably will drill the bar out to put all three through eventually. But Nah hasn't loosened at all. And not too much noticeable vibration.

@WildTouring 3 жыл бұрын
@@ryangrayson5289 measure twice, drill once! A smaller pilot hole first (like a 1/8) will help your drill bit from wandering. A dob of grease works well to lubricate the bit, and collect the metal filings- can just wipe it all off when you're done. Give it all a wipe over with spirits afterwards. And if you've got a can of any color paint in the shed- spray a bit into the cap, and use a small paint brush, your finger or a ear bud to paint around the raw edges of the holes to seal the steel from rusting (if it's a steel bar. If it's aluminium don't worry about it!).

Same problem no matter what brand you go. They all throw the light way too far. Once they figure out how to get the same brightness but only throw it 300 meters. I have a 50 inch light bar that’s perfect but you have to be in the middle of nowhere to be able to use them for their intended use.

Somebody that says IP68 is the highest rating means he didn't understand the rating and test methods. An IP68 rated device can still fail an IP66 test...
@WildTouring 2 жыл бұрын
Certainly not my area of expertise. If it’s yours then feel free to fire away with some helpful information. My understanding is that an IP66 rated item is rated to withstand 3mins of 100lpm of water at 100kpa through a 12.5mm nozzle from 3ms away. IP68 is rated item is rated to withstand submersion to 3ms for a lengthy period. Maybe my wording in the video was incorrect, I guess I’m suggesting that the IP68 rating is the highest RELEVANT rating for what a set of spotlights may be subject to on a 4x4.
@florisvandenhoeven3729 2 жыл бұрын
@@WildTouring , the test are different in a way that one is a spray test and the other one is a submersion test. IPx7 has a fixed depth and time.. however, IPx8 does not have a fixed time and depth which means the manufacturer has to specify this. If not specified, it can even be same a IPx7. The reason why I mentioned that IPx6 could be more important is that a focused spray could dislodge rubber sealings which IPx8 would not do because of the equal pressure. For the company I work for, we usually perform and mention both the submersion and spray testing. So if you are not intending to dive for half an hour with your car.. then IP66 rating could be more beneficial... By the way, sorry if I sounded negative.. was not my intention!
