ALDI LED lightbar - not too bad

[LachieK]

ALDI have a 4x4 special on this weekend.

One of the items is a LED lightbar. I'm recommending it because I could never justify the price of a brand name LED bar but I picked up one of these ALDI bars about 12 months ago on a whim.

It has been great. Easy to DIY install - the remote (wireless) switch is a good touch. The light output is awesome (I don't know why you would want more than it throws) and it has withstood getting driven through scrub and full immersion in water (light and control panel both).

I don't work for ALDI - I just like bargains and I reckon this is one.

I saw that in their catalogue and wondered what they were like. You’d want to be there when the doors opened I reckon as they’ll probably only have a handful of them.

Cheers

These are a 60 watt and Stedi lights in Hoppers Crossing Vic have a 120 Watt 24" Cree light bar with 2 year warranty for around $150 shipped ..................... happy as with mine and a good strong sturdy unit.
Aldis price appears a bit steep for 60watt

If you call his shop he will look after you Eddie
No affiliation just a good product at a good price.

thanks for the heads up don't need an lightbar but I like the look of the mitre saw, for my occasional use it should be perfect and a bit better than the cheap masters/bunnings offering.

Does the Aldi lightbar come with the hid lights or is that a price for each?

[Rovingman]

I believe each!! I looked twice aswell.

Choose from 60W LED Light Bar 51cm (20") or 2 x 55W HID Driving Lights 21cm (7")

Does this help

[Kumabear]

I think I might give the driving lights a go

Hopefully I can compete with the regular Aldi Ninja's that are there every Saturday

I'm going for the awning if there are any left...

Any thoughts on the roof rack? $80 seems too good to be true.

Just shows that unless you do your homework and ignore a lot of the bullshit advertising ...you could get taken for a ride...

I am almost prepared to stand inline outside Aldi to get one, for that price i dont think it could be any worse than the cheap ones on ebay

Just noticed that it requires roof rails (which I don't have). Nuts.

What about the awning? Any experience with aftermarket awnings and whether they fit/don't fit roof racks?
