Looks like the Randy Ellis design....which I think he copied from KC? On my list to buy.

I like the old-school KC-style setup way more than LED strips.

I have used, and been with others who have had, many different lightbar setups in the backcountry and the one that works the best for off-road use of the roof mounted LED's.

They may not look as cool as the bumper-bar mounted KC style lights but they sure light-up the trail really well, especially when negotiating tights trails at night. The fact that the lightbar is up high and casts light down on the trail works real well.

Only thing about being on roof I am sure it works good but in east TN once you get off the gravel rd the trees will have that tore off.

With the massive hood real estate on our trucks glare can be an issue if the roof mounted lights aren't placed properly. They can end up being worse than no auxiliary lighting. CJC off-road has a shield that prevents light spill onto the hood if going fast in the dark is on the menu
