    My son bought his first car and is quickly learning how much it costs to mod a 4x4. He is working part time and puts most his money towards his car. He is currently saving some coin to put toward a set of lights and mate, he would be so chuffed opening a surprise box with Stedi Type X Evos in there!!!! Love your vids, keep up the great work......

    This vid came at a perfect time, I turned 18 early april, and all within a week got my license, bought my hilux, and drove up to work in the Kimberly. Now I've been up here for a bit I'm looking to upgrade the old lightbar that is on the Lux, and the stedi's would be absolutely ideal for both the roads up north here, and back home in the Victorian highcountry!

    Love your channel. Research shows that the light levels for older adults should be increased by at least 50% over those needed by younger people. As someone in my mid 70’s, who still enjoys off road driving, I really need these LED lights to replace my Cibie Oscars which seem to be getting dimmer as I age.

    Finally someone who knows what they are talking about. Being saying similar for years.
    I am looking at a set of these for our school bus I drive in the upper murray. Deer are hard to see at night, and when driving back from Albury to Corryong, it's a challenge seeing them.
    We have a cheap set until our finances mean we can donate a set to the community bus we use.

      Just too much traffic to use them properly

    It’s not the fact I need new ones it’s more so the fact I don’t have any at all !! Been trying to build my truck on a budget. Have done acouple trips and had to rely on the spot lights of the vehicles in front which ofc has led to afew punctures and other sorts of damage. Not ideal at all so the have had to put more mods on hold to cover the repair costs ! Have been waiting for the new stedi spotties to come out and have been trying to save a dollar where I can to one day afford them 👌🏻 love the show and all the advice and tips you guys give !! Keep it up

    Great video and very informative. Since the birth of our daughter a few weeks ago I’ve started to rethink how our vehicle is set up for camping and touring. Previously I hadn’t really considered driving lights an essential requirement but now, anything I can do to make travel safer for my family is a good thing. We are planning a road trip from Newcastle to Tassie later this year and the Stedi’s would be a very welcome addition. Best of luck everyone!

      Part of his reply is in USA "we can not run them on road" legally. I've got a mixture of floods and " spotty's " on my "fourbie's" no "Roo's" to run in roads but whitetails, moose, antelope, cattle ect ect. . Hitting a moose can be deadly in N. America. Another Yank here, that follows a few 4 Wheel things from there... 👍

      Speak for yourself, I NEED BOTH SPOT AND FLOOD LIGHT for night driving. Here you have cows, sheep, reindeer and elk that run out into the road or just stand in the middle of the road blocking it with an entire reindeer flock. If I do not have good lights I would have to drive snow as snail, with good lights I can actually see them better during the night then in the day.

    For the opportunity, living my dream.
    If I win those Stedi spoties, you'll see,
    My 7-year-old son, he'll be screaming with glee.
    Ever since he watched your thousand buck track,
    My little man's been hooked, ain't no turning back,
    He's a fan of the show, knows every line,
    And winning those spoties would truly be divine.

    Great video Shauno, very well put together and timely as I’m just scouting the internet looking at the many options of LED driving lights after hitting a roo at 90km/h at night. The mighty Pajero survived the impact luckily but certainly made me realize it’s time for a set of spot lights!

  • @philiprogers1626
    @philiprogers1626 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great show and very informative. You mention IP68 and 3m of water but the thing most people don't consider is driving down the highway at 80km/h in pouring rain, this is when you are going to get potential ingress as the speed forces the water in every hole. Another is a hot light being splashed with cold water, hot lights expand increasing the opportunities for water ingress. IP68 or IP69 tested and certified is the only answer to this and Stedi have stood by their products for many years ensuring your money is well spent. Love the channel and a set of Stedi lights would look fine on the front of my Everest.

  • @fletcherburger1879
    @fletcherburger1879 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Love the video Shauno! My fourbie needs a fair few upgrades as it's quite stock and not having to save up for a set spotties would be a dream, especially for daily driving as most of my driving is during the night and the normal headlights need a helping hand! Keep up the great work!

  • @samschaefer7064
    @samschaefer7064 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cleared up alot of myths, Cheers. Living 30km out of down down a track with the regular dive home at night a set of spotties are a must, but the price of living is limiting the mods to the car. Every month i try to pack the family up and head off the beaten track to find free camps and cool farm camps for the weekend, usually arriving pretty late trying to dodge the roos, so it would be nice to se them before hitting them.

    Recently bought an LN106, currently rebuilding her, shes stripped sanded and about to raptor line, it already has some ebay special lights on there and lets be honest, its that slow it wouldnt pull the skin back on my old fella, i reckon i could drive in the dark and not need to worry about hitting anything at the speed the old girl achieves but a couple of flash new spotties would still be a nice addition to the rebuild, great vid shauno, legend.

Nearly had some dinner, had the breaks not just been done. Less than an hour owning the car haha. A nice set of spotties may be helpful avoiding this and great for a planned Cape Trip. Best of Luck everyone!

    I've just purchased a 2003 Gu3 wagon with 351k Kms on the clock. I can desperately do with some lights, but since the car was over budget I had to really stretch to get it and therefore can't afford those amazing Stedi's which I reckon would look amazing in front of my rig. Would be stoked to get my hands on them. Also you guys are awesome, never miss a show! Thanks!

    To be honest Shauno, I don't even have any LED lights, my dad is too tight on money that he saids he'll never get a pair. We just got a camper that we love going to places with but when driving the long tyring straight roads at night, it's so obvious that just our standard driving lights are nowhere near what we need. the Stedi type X Evo would help out so much and would make the trips around the places a whole lot safer aswell. Hopefully I could be considered in the competition. Cheers Shauno and the rest of ya

    Yet another quality Australian product those lights. They look far superior compared to other lights out there. I'm restoring a 1993 pajero swb with my old man. He's now getting out of navigational rallying but I'm now getting into it. Getting these lights would get me closer to having my dream rig rally ready.

  • @a64738
    @a64738 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Here good lights is a must have for night driving with sheep, elk, reindeer and cows blocking the road at random... Looong time ago I was driving at night and a rather large flock of reindeer was blocking the road and I did not see them because of the poor lights on my 1993 model Opel Astra, I had to drive slalom between them while slowing down, and I did miraculously avoid hitting any of them.
    After that I mounted two Hella Rally 3000 and put in 100W halogen bulbs in them, and my car`s dynamo was giving out 14,8v so it was a LOT more then 100W :) Best lights I ever had, they was even more powerful then 50W Xeon. Only now with 170w LED`s I see lights that give the same distance and spread of light. With the 100W bulbs in the Rally 3000 you could see a wooden power poles at 1,500m distance along the road (I turned the lights upside down to give less light to near the car, that also help give more distance ).

    My partner and I just bought our first ever 4WD after years of dreaming and talking about it! We're so excited to get it fully set up for touring...our bank account is significantly less excited 😂. Winning a set of Stedi's would be a huge savings that we can put towards the long list of mods to go and quality recovery gear. Either way, we have both learnt so much from this channel and it's given us the nudge of confidence (however misplaced) to take a more hands-on approach with our build so we can continue to learn as we go 😁

  • @Jack-zd6dn
    @Jack-zd6dn ปีที่แล้ว

    These spotties would be a total game-changer for my nav when I'm tearing up the beach and the sun goes down, these bad boys would become my own personal sun lighting up the sand and keeping me safe and letting me enjoy the view and also show off a little. Believe me once I try em I'll never want to hit the beach without em.

  • @RESSSQ
    @RESSSQ ปีที่แล้ว

    Got a set of LED driving lights of a mate and was assured they were good quality only to start have issues within a month of having them on the car. Things that went wrong was they would flicker on and off when driving along a lightly corrugated road, one or the other would intermittently turn off then back on of its own accord. I have had an auto elec look at them but due to financial constraints can’t afford to replace them. Cheers

    I need a set of spotlights as I do a lot of driving out to my grandparent's house to drive them to the doctor for my granddad (about once a week). They live out rural a bit so there's a lot of kangaroos on the road and the drives home are often in the first few hours of the night when they are most active! I also got my first child on the way (daughter) so these would be great to help keep my self and my family safe driving to and from the doctors every week.

    I've just bought my first newer car 2 weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to have a bulbar previously installed. I am heading up to Townsville for a camping trip with a few of the lads from work, well be up there for a fair while, I've had a few encounter with kangaroos in my old 75 series and one of the last roo's I saw took out my whole front end. If that happened to my new car i would be devastated. So a set of spotties on the front would do wonders for me.

    Back in 1971 I bought a pair of Miller driving lights to put on my EK Holden, in preparation for a Nullabor crossing. Compared to the EK candles, those first 55W halogens were fan-bloody-tastic. Halogens ruled for a very long time until LEDs took over. There are plenty of good LED lights, but also plenty of crap ones to avoid.

    I have all ready got a stedi light bar, but I don't want to see the birds sleeping in the top of trees I want to see the road, I want lights that that shine up what iam driving on. Years ago I had on the truck rails 2000 wow they were great. Evo lights look just what I need. 48 years driving interstate trucks experience now retired now 73 still love driving. Yours faithfully. Peter Best. Ps love your 4x4 show, thanks for telling me about the light.

    I just came back from a trip from Meandarra I have the bullbar but not the spotlights. 3am in the morning I lost count of the amount of kangaroos I saw. This video is a great source of information for people looking to buy, thanks Shauno.

    Just got myself a new 4wd and wanting to kit it up and complete the big lap, these lights would be a amazing addition to my new rig. Once again awsome and informative video glad to see some scientific fact in there as well

    I could definitely use a set of those! They would have prevented me driving my Ford F150 into a pond as I crested a hill following my friend's up a trail that literally went around the edge of the pond I came up the hill and didn't see it in time and dunked my front end in the water luckily the Boyes were quick to hook up to us and pull us out before my motor took on water! We saved my truck but what if I was alone I would have lost my truck! Love the show guys keep up the Great work!

    We haven’t yet put any driving lights on our Troopy but have upgraded the headlights to Stedi’s - after a few night drives on country back roads & night beach driving on Fraser Island we definitely need a good set of Stedi Driving Lights 🙌 Love the Channel - definitely better than Netflix 👍😜

    Shaun I’ve done exactly what you talked about.. bought a cheaper set of spotties which were good initially but now are failing and brackets etc are rusting due to poor quality. Love to be driving with a good quality set 👍

    When u fit HUGE spotlights to the front u can overheat your engine if towing and fitted with bullbar .
    Does not occur every time but there are many vehicle warranty claims refused as a result . Approved or highly vented bullbar with alot of thought into spotlight/LED bar placement is the way to get around potential issues .

    Had a head on collision on Tuesday morning heading to work a lady turned in front of me and I had no where to go, so I could use a new set of Spotties on my new 4wd when I get one 👌👌

    A couple comments;
    - IP68 is 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Note that IP69 (the "9" being better than "8") means it meets 8 and in addition, it can survive high pressure jets of water (for example, if you wash the lights with a pressure/wand washer). The highest rating is IP69K which means "high pressure / high temperature jets of water". If you use hot water pressure washers on your lights, you'll want IP69K rated.
    - heat coming out of the back of the lights is GOOD. It means that heat is not getting trapped inside the light. Good engineering means that heat will be transferred away from the LED and out to the atmosphere. If you compare 2 lights with equal number and wattage of LEDs, the one with MORE heat coming out of the heat fins is better. Both are generating the same amount of heat internally but one is better at getting rid of that heat than the other one. The one with cooler heatsink fins means that the heat is not being pulled away from the LEDs as well, which will lead to failure or at least yellowing of the LEDs (excess heat can actually change the chemistry of the LEDs, resulting in a yellower light rather than bright white).

    I just had a cracking Heart Attack and I'm really feeling the pinch because I can't be heading out for a couple months. What I CAN do though, is watch 4WD24/7 episodes with my daughter and work on some light mods (Pun intended!). I'd LOVE to be adding some awesome new lights to the rig!!!

    Heading on a overdue road trip with a mate in November. I’m heading East in WA from Coolgardie to Hyden on a 4by track these spot lights would be a huge help to dodge the Roos.
    Keep up the good work lads, love the episodes.

    Hi guys, we’re only a couple of weeks away from picking up our new Ranger Sports and then to slowly start fitting it out. The info in here has certainly helped me out, I’m trying to watch as many of your videos to help us select what’s right for our 4x4… Keep it up and the giveaways certainly help as the costs these days are getting out of hand.

  • @leewallace5994

    I’d love these lights to go on my first 4x4 . I just picked up a grandpa spec 93 80 series petrol cruiser. It’s bare bones and I’m on a budget . No mods no big lift it’s stock as a rock 😎😎

    This light is just what we were looking for to help, a rescue ambulance team back home Horn of Africa, to transport patients from village to city. Where roads do not exist. Will be happy with a discount code. Spaceman 64 gets my vote.

    I have a light bar mounted on the roof spoiler on my 3,2m tall Ford Transit box van, but even mounted that high it give way to much light right in front of the car and it do not light up the road farther away so I pretty much never use it.
    I have now bought 2 more of the 25W high beam halogen alike LED lights that came with the car when I bought it that is mounted in the grill of the car in front. They work great to light up the road far ahead and give not to much light right in front of the car. Will mount them up high on the spoiler to give even better reach ahead together with two 170w LED high beam lights with many smaller LED and reflectors (hope they are better then the light bar that have way to much spread).

    If I were to win the lights, I’d gift them to my lady. After saving for a year, she just got her first 4WD (a Toyota) and she’s itching to get out on the trails with us in her own rig. I originally had eBay lights on my truck, but after they failed in a short period of time, I decided to spend by the money on some High quality lights. Seeing the difference first hand has us both convinced for her to not make the same mistake, and save for the high quality lights the first time around.

    Hey mate, good to see some straight up, no bs info on lights. We recently installed a Stedi curved light bar on one of the trucks at work and WOW 😵😵 the difference it makes! Probably the best light I've seen..
    So yeah time to upgrade the old halogen spotties on my car.
    Keep up the great vids mate 👍🏻

    Hi I am 23 and just picked up my first project. I got myself a 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser j120 and would love to start it off with a bullbar and those lights would be awesome on it. Love the videos and I’m a fairly new subscriber and your channel has really helped me learn more about what to get for my build🤙🏽

    I need a set of Spotlights to enhance visibility in my 4x4, especially in off-road and rural areas with poor lighting conditions. They help navigate rough terrain, identify obstacles, and improve night driving by illuminating a wider area and spotting animals, pedestrians, and other vehicles outside the range of standard headlights. These benefits make 4x4 vehicles more efficient and safer in challenging environments.

    Hello Gentlemen. Long time fan first post. It's likely been mentioned already but I didn't see it yet but LED alignment within the reflector is another huge indicator on the quality of Spot and Flood LEDs.
    Keep up the inspirational work! From Colorful Colorado in the states! Be well.

  • @David-hb9dh
    @David-hb9dh ปีที่แล้ว

    great to see your trying to help people while plugging your pocket with those awesome looking stedi units.
    It may be a good idea to inform people about road regs when it comes to Lights, here in vic if they are forward of your "B" piller or behind or above your bull bar bar they are considered camping lights and the switch must not be able to be reach by the the driver while driving,
    This why I need the Stedi lights because I got defected and had to disconnect my roof mounted light bar which doesn't fit my bar, those steady units would make my rig shine day and night.
    keep the information coming, well done .

  • @brodie1686
    @brodie1686 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think I need them because I’m always leaving early to go to the gym in the hills where there is no traffic just lots of Roos and they love to jump out. This product would be a great product for my Toyota cheers guys

  • @hugoschwarz2895
    @hugoschwarz2895 ปีที่แล้ว

    My reason for needing the spotties is my old 1985 75 series farm truck still has the stock headlights which really don’t do much at all. I’m gradually building the truck up bit by bit and some spotties would save me a lot. Cheers

    Smoked a roo on the way to work 3 months back. Didn't have a bull bar or spotties. Both probably coulda changed the outcome. Got the Colorado back now with a bullbar, just looking to pull the trigger on some lights. These STEDIs would definitely do the work!

    I’m not going to lie mate, I’m making a Rally Mazda 3 2009 hatch, and so far it’s going well and I’ll be going up to Nowra next year to give her a test on the Sydney tracks to Wollongong.
    The Spot lights would definitely be a fine addition to her

  • @Pshort709

    I use spotties to avoid moose (Canada), and your rig is totalled if you hit them. Looking to upgrade mine after breaking the mounts and having to cut the wires, to keep my panels from getting ruined by 4kg lights bouncing around.

    Being a new owner to the 4x4 scene I’m learning a lot about them and know lights are an integral part of the setup. I would love to get a set of these beasts because we are also outfitting a tradies trailer to become a camper trailer so we can get it to the specs we want. Winning these lights would be awesome! Also look forward to camping in the warmer months so a lot of inner land driving.
