Stock lighting, to say that they are at times inadequate, is an
understatement. Most of the time you feel as though you are driving with only
one functioning light with the amount of illumination that they produce. Add in
some bad weather, fog or glare situations and they feel as if a candle lit
carriage ride would be brighter. Last fall we tried the Quadratec LED
headlights in an effort to obtain better visibility in adverse conditions and
night driving.
Right out of the box we could tell that the Quadratec LED headlights are
more modern. With the new age of lighting brings a whole new different set up.
No more giant bulbs to change! The Quadratec LED headlights are small and
powerful Phillips® brand light emitting diodes (The fancy words for LED) all in
a die-cast aluminum housings. Add in the crystal clear polycarbonate lenses for
top notch preservation against impacts and the water tight epoxy seal keeps
electronics protected.
Install was easy and was performed in a short time. As stated on the
Quadratec website, the headlights are truly plug-n-play with no modifications
needed. We couldn't wait to try them out!
One flick of the switch and we noticed an immediate difference with our
lighting. The Quadratec LED headlights produce a bright beam, not too bright
that other vehicles are annoyed at you, but a nice range between blinding
bright and factory dull. The Quadratec LED Headlights make driving at
night/early morning enjoyable and safe again.
It doesn’t matter the weather conditions you have a consistent visibility.
The lights have been on our 2006 LJ Wrangler for about 7 months now and we
couldn't be happier. They have been through a few season/weather changes, snow,
freezing rain, foggy conditions....The headlights never faltered or froze up in
below freezing conditions.
In addition to impressive function, the Quadratec LED headlights are
stylish giving you that upgraded look without coming off as tacky.
We wear the silver "Q" logo and hardware proudly in the center of
our headlights but you can also purchase in a stealth version featuring a
"blacked" out logo and satin black assembly hardware.
Our Quadratec LED headlights were put to the test when Off Road Consulting
had a night ride at Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area earlier this year. As we
guided over 20 vehicles through the dark trails we could see better and farther
when driving at night with our new lights. The LED lights eliminated shadows
and provided a clear drive line at night where regular stock headlights produce
shadows from dull light. The LED headlights make navigating through obstacles
such as rocky sections more controllable during night driving as you can see
the physical object or obstacle versus feeling your way through the situation.
Another situation where the Quadratec LED headlights excelled is with
aiding in the watching out for wildlife. You can see the wildlife sooner and
can react as needed to avoid coming into contact with the animal.
For daily drivers or your weekend warrior if you are thinking of upgrading
your lighting consider the Quadratec LED headlights. Off Road Consulting highly
recommends the Quadratec LED headlights for any vehicle to improve safety and visibility
day or night, on or off road.
