Default Advan Black 7" led headlight?

Does anybody out there have any experience with this brand pertaining to overall build quality and longevity please?
I never ride at night so what kind of a beam it throws is of no concern, it's being seen better during the day.
I can get one for under $250 or opt for the proven J.W. Speaker Evo 2 for $425 (factoring in the approx exchange rate).
Thanks!

You can go on ebay and get one for 69.95 just type in harley daymaker in the search bar. I bought one over a year ago it's still working fine. I've ridden the bike about 10k since I put it in and all is well. When I ride with friends at night they don't want me behind them. It puts out a wall of light. I really wouldn't spend 250.00 on a name. The lights on ebay work fine.

Made in Malaysia. Hope their profits don't go to Muslim terrorists.

Try https://www.headlightrevolution.com/...cle/headlights and look at some of their review videos on YouTube. You have much to learn...

I picked up a Sunpie version off Amazon a few months back. It's been great and for the difference in price, I could buy 8 of them and still not pay the MoCo price.

Put the Sunpie 7" LEDs in both our JK Jeep Wranglers and they work great. Very bright light. Have one for my SG too!

since you don't ride at night WHY change out the headlight? just get some custom dynamics rings
which will give you the DRL effect and plenty of visibility.. visibility being relative since people
don't look for us anyway

My friend installed three Truck Lites on his '09 FLT and when I'm leader, and he's at the rear I can easily see him compared to his stock lighting.
So I figure any little bit helps, it's just that I'm not sure it's worth well over $400 for the JW Speaker. What I don't want is to be on the road on a long trip and have a cheap light fail, even fog up etc.

No issue with my Advan black Daymaker clone, but only about 3K on it.
