## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality
*by  on Reviewed in Canada 24 August 2022*

Very bright, and feels like good quality. there is lots a cable for my application (experimental aircraft) and i’ll probably end up cutting it back quite a bit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy and great product!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 26 February 2024*

They say you get what you pay for and in this case... Well worth it! Though I would expect nothing less from a namebrand like Whelen. Replaced Red vortex lights in a former tribal patrol vehicle (converting it over to a patrol vehicle for a security company) and absolutely love Whelen lights. Would highly recommend this product and brand!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 3 November 2022*

Super bright and easy to install. Keep in mind that you need the right tools to install this leds. I used a step drill bit to make the hole. Light head needs to fit as tight as possible to prevent water from entering the stoplight
