you got that on a hand held trigger set up Boyo ? Bet that wasn't cheap from Durite ... good stuff, but a serious premium for the name on the box ... most of these things come from (to quote Phil the Greek) the land of the "slanty eyed lil' yellow b**stards" anway usually ...... my 8 quid 48 watt-ers are still burning yer eyeballs if you dare look straight at 'em
not where I had mine from ... can't find him ... but look to be the same generic ying tong units

I converted a makita torch to led about 15 years ago. Best thing ever only took them about 10 year to cotton on and make it themselves. I've got a cheap source for the durite stuff so wouldn't even consider the ebay stuff. There's a few on digger to be fair mind 2 on cab and 4 on boom. What isn't made in china these days?

Torch would stand a bigger work lamp on it (I have another to convert when I get round to it) but get about 5/6 hrs out of a 5ah 18v battery as is.

Does the lamp run at 18v or is there a transformer somewhere?

Runs at 18v most you're automotive led stuff is 12-24 volt. It's handy cos i still have some older 14v batteries so i can use these as well.

I’ve got lots of led lights,cheap of amazone.4 on digger and on my telehandler.buy a box of Deutsch connectors aswell and fit these so lights plug straight into standard wiring.i don’t like altering machines then easy to return to standard when moving on.
