For the last couple of weeks I've been trying to figure out what type of lights I should get to put onto my roof rack. I was thinking of either a 42'' LED bar or 4 HID's. From all the videos that I've seen on youtube, the LED bars don't look like they put out much light compared to what my friends HID's did...Are the LED bars really worth it or should I stick to the HID's?

The end of the building is about 1000' away and yes I'm pointed a bit down hill.
I also no longer have the KC HID's,I switched them out for Vision X's 25watt Cannon's(1000' beam) which blow them away big time.No pics of those or the Rigid Dually's in the Renny light bar since my engine took a dump a while ago.Wish I would have waited 2 weeks for those Vision X Cannon lights since the day I got them Vision X came out with 50watt Cannon's(2500' beam).
From what I understand LEDs will illuminate while HIDs will project it that makes sense. Personally I would go with HIDs to give maximum light output.
Not any more and really how far ahead do you really need to see? Oh and LED's will last much longer if you buy good LED's like Rigid and Vision X,other knockoff brands are hit or miss(more miss then hit by far) on quality,longevity,and brightness and why there cheap.
