Hey guys, looking at getting a wig-wag system for my headlights, does anyone have any suggestions? Also, I am looking at different Whelen bulbs for my tail lights. Anyone know of any cheap distributors?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

Try doing a search on google for them. -

1. If 3/4ths of the Department jumped off a bridge, would you?Originally posted by jonbeard View Post3/4 of the department has them, so I would persume yes.

If you can get the parts, I can send you the schematic...
OTOH, you're probably better off buying off-the-shelf.
Just make sure you buy the right system for your vehicle's electrical system.Opinions my own. Standard disclaimers apply.

Be very careful presuming there in North Carolina. I believe (but of course I could be wrong) that alernating headlights are NOT legal for volunteers in NC.Originally posted by jonbeard View Post3/4 of the department has them, so I would persume yes.

Yeah, I am just looking at probably sticking with Whelen only, that way I don't screw around with it after putting it in. Spend a little more money, but save a headache or two. Get it done right, and the first time, you know?
Currently looking at some 90w strobe bulbs for my head/tail lights. Running $50/bulb, but I have seen them and they make you squint

Let me guess - the Recon units, right?Originally posted by jonbeard View PostYeah, I am just looking at probably sticking with Whelen only, that way I don't screw around with it after putting it in.

Little hint - although they say those are 90 watt lights, what they will admit when backed up to the wall is it is a 90 watt SYSTEM, and those bulbs are for the system.
It is a 6 head power supply, so do the math. 90 / 6 equals 15 watts per head. Less power than most public safety units. Recon is made for show vehicles, and it is a low quality low power unit
Another hint - at 20 watts per tube, they can melt the lense on the turn signal/brake lights. Think what a 90 watt tube, if available could do.
And a 90 watt tube would do more than make you squint - it would blind the drivers coming toward you.Comment
