What are the specs on the light?

Vision X LED bar, avaiable in 6", 8", 12", 22", 32", 42" lengths, 2.75x3"
2-16 amps draw depending on size, 8-80 3watt LED's depending on size, and $279-$1675 depending on length
The one shown is a 22" version

Does it give an output power comparable to standard lights? Like 55W, 100W, etc...?

 

[pbmcauliffe]

The spec sheet didn't so I called them and this is what I got:
The Lumen output is greatly effected by the quality of bulb and reflector used, but on the higher end of lights (Lightforce) figure that a 100 watt light will be about 15-20 lumens, lower end lights can be far less.
The 22" led bar is rated at 7200 lumens at 8 amps draw, so 7200 lumens/15 = 480 watts of output, or 360 depending on what you divide it by.

Ya--but ferry ride is 1 hour each way--along with the hour drive to seattle--4 hours a day :puke:

 

[pbmcauliffe]

Well working with fractured ribs and torn cartilege really brings the suck, so progress has been slower than I would have liked, but roughly three days left and we are waiting for torque converter, drive flanges, drive lines, mass airflow sensor and some other items.
We received the incorrect top coils so we are a little taller than we wanted, but still need to add some stuff so we may be okay.

 

[crash2]

Did you guys get the inner shaft issue resolved yet?

 

[Eric]

Fractured ribs torn cartligde? what happened?

Looking good:awesomework:

Yes, sent them back to Doug and he turned them down a bit more in the spline area, they fit correctly now.

As for the ribs, we were screwing around in the shop and Shawn bear hugged me until I heard some crunching noises in my side, sore for a day then Holy crap worst pain I have felt, went to ER for a few hours with slight fracture, torn cartilege and torn muscles.

 

[CHOP SHOP]

excuse me for being blunt. how much has this build cost in labor, how much and what was donated, and why are people sponsering a rookie?

total price?
total freebies?
how about a list of who put out what and why??

I will Larry disclose whatever monetary amount he wants to, but he has gotten very little for free actually.
Yes, a lot of companies have given him a break on parts (racer & competitor programs) and we are giving him a deal on the labor.
Why, it is a huge event and people want to be involved with it for one. Larry is a young guy and very passionate about doing this, so he has sold many of his other toys and come up with money for parts w/o hesitation. He flew done to the Offroad Expo this last year just to meet people face to face and sell himself on why helping him will benefit them, not just calling around asking for free stuff.
There are a lot of companies that want to help out with the new kid on the block, he could be the next big thing in racing and they are there from the start.
