Interestingly I just bought 4 of the exact same off eBay!

Hopefully should arrive Monday, are they good?

Any shots of what they light ahead up like? Cheers, David

To be honest I imagined they would be a flood beam (50/60 deg) but looking at the advert more closely(as I should have done!) mine say 'spot beam'

No clue what a spot beam is? Like normal high beams?

Oh well will have to see what they're like.

If someone finds the exact same in 'work/flood' beam I'd be interested Cheers, David

I have been using a pair of the twin LED spots from the same manufacturer on my bike (BMW GS) since the summer and they are excellent.
The same lights are available from several suppliers (I use MTFANSCLUB) and are available in several configerations including 2, 4, 6, 8 12, 18, 24 and upto 96 LED's (probably others as well). They are not E-marked but as far as quality & performance goes they are unbeatable for the money.
I am fitting an eight LED flood on the rear of the 90 as a work-light. I had held off ordering it until I had thoroughly tested the ones on the bike but they appear to be holding up just fine so fitting is imminent. My main concerns (apart from the light pattern) were failure of the LED's, water ingress and damage to the lense. In all cases my worries have been groundless so I am happy to purchase more lights. ONE LIFE, GET IT!

Does the LED flood you're fitting have a switch ?

Thanks

I'd also be interested in a few pics of them installed David. I'm considering trying a couple of these as rear worklamps for camping trips etc so am also more interested in a flood type beam pattern. Thumbs Up
