I have a cree torch , just got it for xmas

The performance is awesome for a small torch, the beam is so strong it is far better than my maglite

Andy I've got cree bulbs in the reversing light and front fogs on the old Git :evilgrin: (which I'm running as DRL's) the fog's throw up a bulb warning in the fog lights which is a minor nuisance :fighting:. Got mine from car mod shop, off ebay.

Also have them in the Benz as reversing lights - nice and bright and a big improvement. I would imagine you can get even brighter ones these days, mine are 2 yrs old

For what purpose? The image suggests there is an LED directly behind a diffuser on the front so you'd have to be mad to use them as a dipped headlight.
