Does anyone know how many lumens (per light) these lights are?

If you are looking to use these as a fog kit you'll want our fog kit for the modular bumper (which includes all the brackets needed to mount these): https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-...ckets-for-2021-ford-bronco-hd-modular-bumper/


The 6 Bars have the following output data:

What exactly is the difference between raw output lumens and measured output lumens?

Raw lumen is calculated based on the lumen per watt/amp of the Diode itself. Measured is measured at a certain distance (advertised) with a lux meter. Usually reported as LUX.

250 lux at 20' for example
or
1250 lux at 25'

Now I'm confused....
I was comparing the 6" light bar to the SS3" pods for SAE Fog use.

6" light bar is 1400 lumens measured output
with 130 Lux @ 10 meters.

SS3 Pro is 3000 lumens measured output
with 119 Lux @ 10 meters.

The SS3 Pro has over twice the measured output than the 6" bar (3000 vs 1400), but has lower light level @ 10 meters (119 vs 130 lux).

Which one produces more light? Or rather which light the road better?
I'm primarily interested in using these as supplemental lighting to light up the shoulders while driving on semi-rural roads.... lots of deer around here.

Lux and Lumen are not the same.

Lumen is calculated via the diode and what its capable of (raw via lumen per watt).
Lux is REAL WORLD output. What you SEE. What lands on the road. Lux is taken from one spot whereas lumen is a TOTAL OUTPUT everywhere.

Light bars have a different pattern over SS3 Pro. They'll have a bit more lux since it's wider/longer but the SS3's diodes are different and calculated raw is more. However it's FOCUSED more and only has 4 diodes to play with so it's not going to have as many diodes to LAND the light everywhere else.

If you want a fog kit, go for the Triple Fog Kit. It's the best choice and you get other lights with it. If you want to save some $$, go with the dual 6" fog kit we offer

Thanks! I was aware of the triple and dual light setups but I'm looking in the <$250 range.... a pair of SS3 Pros or the 6" bar fit that budget.

If the lux measurement is a better indicator of real world performance, maybe I'll drop down to a pair of SS3 Sport's @106 lux vs the 130 lux of the SS6 light bar. I'd guess the light bar would have a better output pattern, but the SS3 may be 'bright enough' to make a difference and allow the option to add more lights later.
