STEDI lights - Aussie Brand

Have seen a couple of posts about the above on Youtube / Instagram.

General consensus is they appear well made.

Does anyone have experience with them? How do they hold up to our winters / gritted roads?

I was thinking about buying these:

Hi shanecl

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but just wondering how you got on with the stedi homage lights? I’m looking for an LED reflector style headlight and at the min it’s between stedi and truck-lite. Also considered an RDX pair from Bolt on bits, but haven’t heard much about them.

I have Stedi lights on my motorcycles and had their products on my 2011D4 Disco. Top quality gear and great customer service. No hesitation at all to buy from them again.

Hi Pete,

I've had them for about a year now.

I really like them; my main rationale was that over the winter, driving the dogs for their walk in the mornings and running the webasto engine heater, I was finding the battery kept draining as I wasn't driving far enough.

I switched to these and full LED side / break lights and didn't have to recharge the battery once last winter.

In terms of performance, they are really good, definatly brighter and better throw. But I had wipac crystals and decent halogen bulbs before, and to be honest I think I prefer the spread and the warmth with the wipacs.

Overall, very happy that I switched, but if I wasn't driving the dogs every morning, it would have been a bit of a waste.

I Have 6 type X lights on my disco 3 and although the light spread and throw was excellent, i was not that impressed with the quality. It only took a few weeks for the paint around the fixings on the ali rings to start flaking off.

I always say this when people ask now but after have chinese ebay lights, then LTPRTZ/Osram and stedi, i would now only ever go for Lazer lights - i have had some utility lights and a triple r 1000 on 3 vehicles now/over 4 years old and when washed, they still come up like new and their performance is unrivaled.

Well, finally got round to fitting these. Just in time for the long summer days

I think they looks good and from a quick test they appear much better than the standard (ish) halogens that they replaced. I prefer the cooler white light.

Will try and follow up with some night time pics if I can capture some.
