Hey guys. I have had one side of the light go dark. I know its LED and probably a loose solder joint (its not at the connector) but im not going to F with pulling it apart. Problem is I have no idea what brand it was. What brand do you guys like for an integrated light?

Thanks
 
At the moment, they all suck. There is no one go to brand right now. Gecko made a prototype that was killer but it's too time consuming and expensive to make himself and couldn't find a manufacturer to mass produce it so that option got shut down. All the models out there now are not really functional. Sure, they work but none of them are visible in daylight. Mine is E-Code smoked but you can't see ..... It's pointless.
 
It seems that Competition Werks makes one that perhaps a few other companies copy or stamp their names on because as it was indicated, they are all miserable.

I think the New Rage Cycles is likely the best alternate at a reasonable price point.
 
I have a nearly new (1 month used) Competition Works (smoked) in my garage laying there, for 50 Euros its yours excl. shipping.
 
Not really sure what double0 is talking about (Which is common for me and him), but they do all suck except for the New Rage Cycle one. I bought the Competition Werkes one initially, its pointless, the LED's (which are directional) point inside the housing. NO way to see during daytime. The New Rage Cycle ones are what you are looking for. A while back I posted pics on here during the daytime with them. Do a search.

NOLA

I have ran Comp Werkes integrated tail lights for years never any issues. I know alot of the knockoffs can be hit or miss.

Of course you're not sure what I'm talking about. The guy asked about an integrated taillight, not an add on piece like new rage that you're referring to. Yes, NRC is an option if you don't want to pull apart the led taillight or buy another useless taillight which no one can see during the day.
 
Maybe, just maybe, the heavens will open and someone, somewhere, will fund Gecko's integrated tail light solution. It's THE best option I have seen...period, and a crime that it can't make it into production.
 
I will e mail him on it. In the meantime, I bought another over priced Clear Alternatives unit. It is what it is. Thank guys
