I've got D2's on my windshield brackets and got some Dually's coming to replace my fogs.  They are great light and the output is great

How are these LED's when it snows? Do they create anough heat to keep the snow build-up off the lens?

I was confused watching that vid...  ???

So... they break when shot with a gun, or stabbed, or cut, or drilled, or bent, etc. And this means I should buy them?

What wouldn't you buy lights that can actually take a bullet??

The D2's will create enough heat the keep the snow off.  I got the D2's for $375 and I got the Duallys for $175. I don't know if the Dually create enough heat to stay clear. I would imagine they would if left on

Well, I would mostly avoid shooting at my lights, because I like them to work.

But if you DO want to talk about shooting lights, the LED vid and the VisionX vid is apples to oranges. A round of #7 bird shot has little to no penetrative power. A 5.56mm round (what they were firing at the LED) will penetrate soft body armor. The only thing on a Jeep that will reliably stop a 5.56mm round is the engine block. #7 birdshot at 15 yards would be stopped by sheet metal. I've seen it happen.

Both look to be tough lights....but none of the videos posted on this thread are truly anything other than marketing hype. Buy what you like, and hope that it keeps you from running over Bambi.
