GEN 1 Rigid Radiance Wiring Help

[joekai]

I don't recall who but for example I have my "SVT" Fender Logos spliced into my front corner marker lights. Once my running lights come on the "SVT" comes on.

I would think it would be that easy... Run your hot for the Background Radiance Lights direct to the marker lights. Then run your hot for the main setup to your Aux switch. Be sure to check your fuse size and make sure it's good.

Things to keep in mind though - by doing this, your background lighting will ALWAYS be on when your running lights are on. You can only shut them down by turning off EVERY light not connected to the AUX switches.

Also - depending on the color of your background light you may not want this option as you don't want the blues-reds always on regardless of how dim they are...

I also have the lighted side vents spliced into the corner LEDs, I didn't know if I should try and splice in to a different power source or not. I'm going with the amber radiance bars so I would imagine I should be safe with the 50' up on the windshield, and the 20" in the lower grill.

Thanks for the info!

I just got my 40" mounted and took some pics and night shots. But now I can't seem to get any pics to upload. And I wired the back lighting to aux 4 with my fog lights that I run all the time.

Hell yeah! Thanks for posting these up. I have been waiting for Radiance night shot pics. Hey bro, can you post some more? In some different environments? Also, how do you feel about those VIsionx light cannons? I have heard good things around them. Can I also pardon you for some light cannon night shots while your at it?

Thank you!

Hey @raptor36 and @Reptar Here are a few more pics of my whole light setup. the first is just headlights and all of them are with the headlights on, which I shouldn't have done since the pictures look like crap on here and will make it hard to tell how much difference their is between the different lights. Ok anyways.
1. Headlights only
2. Rigid 40" radiance- good throw and good spread, seems alittle underpowered, but for the money pretty good.
3. 31" Tuff Stuff off road pro series behind the grille-great light for the $, distance is awesome 7w per led and has interchangeable covers for flood and spot and colors, mine are all spot. Downsides are only that the covers are tedious to change and the larger heatsink makes it alittle tougher to fit into some places.
4. 4.5 Light canons- great lights just getting alittle under powered compared to everything else now. But are great in a snow storm with the amber covers on.
5. Everything on together.

Few more from the side. Same Order as above with the last one having my crappy eBay 54" curved bar on to.

Heck yeah. I have been very curious for awhile about the radiance. Thanks for throwing that up. I am also buying some light cannons (alternative off road has a group buy right now). I can't wait to mount those cannons in my bumper. Thanks for taking the time.

What did you use to take these photos? I have my iPhone, it sucks.

 

[farman]

I took them with my s6 and they look good till I put them on here, but I also had to crop them to be under the mb limit for pics on here. Or I think that's why I had to crop them I don't know to much about that kind of stuff.

^ they look way better than anything my iPhone makes. Cannot get good light bar photos with my phone at all.
