It's the age old Should I buy this half rate flebay part?
I picked up a new-to-me front bumper for the Jeep yesterday and it has a bull bar which would be perfect to mount an LED light bar to. The flat part of the bull bar is 16" in length so a 12" to 14" led light would be perfect.
I found this one on Amazon for $80-ish, but its some knock off and only has one review that says "Very good". Brand name led light bars on this size are selling for around $200+, which I find absurd, but I am also not sure if I should trust some no name product with the only review being written by the only guy who spoke a little English at the factory where these are made.
Anyone have any luck with LED products off Amazon? Any no name brands I should look for?

Here's some other options to confuse the situation.

hahaha deal extreme. That site is hilarious. If you order anything from there it always smells VERY STRONGLY of a chinese factory and cancer.

If they don't list what kind of LEDs, or the wattage, dont get it. A lot of times though with this chinese stuff they cheap out on the housing. They use junk plastic where a real company would use metal. It depends on how long you want it to last. The LEDs and circuitry are probably the same though. There isn't much to screw up with LEDs.

I order cables from them all the time. They are so cheap. You just need to be patient.

yup, I've used them for cables too. That slow boat from china takes like a month though.

Yup. It sure does. It's worth it for the cancer though.
