Yeah, I have one and love it. I have it mounted under my tour pak. I also have the HD LED tourpak spoiler and LED saddle bag spoilers. This company HogLites, was trashed here about a month or so ago. The guy took a beating from the members here because one guy bought a light from him and it came in damaged. I got mine in A-1 condition.

Excellent product and John at Hoglite is a stand-up guy.

He stands behind his product 100% and I'd recommend him and the light, hands down.

Any issues with the amperage load? LED's usually need something to compensate for load.

I had installed the HD LED tourpak spoiler running/brake light originally. That had to be plugged in under the seat. I spliced the HogLite into the spoiler wiring inside the tourpak. Then I went detatchable.

As for the wiring, I had 2 wire bundles to deal with coming out of my tourpak. I bought 2 sets of Duestch (sp?) wire connectors and made my splices under the seat. I just made sure that I put a male plug on 1 wire bundle and a female plug on the other bundle coming from the tourpak so that there is no way to mismatch the bundles when hooking up the tourpak. I got the connectors from the dealer.

As far as load issues I haven't experienced any at all. All of my rear lighting is LED, and besides the tourpak LED spoiler and LED HogLite, I have LED saddlebag spoilers which are running/brake lights, LED directional/brake lights, LED saddlebag running/directional latch lights and a LED tail/brakelight. I also have the the tourpak spoiler, HogLite, and saddlebag spoilers wired to a brake flasher from http://comagination.com/.

My fender tip lights are LED and I have the HD LED front fender trim light kit. The only lights on my bike that are not LED are the front directionals, headlight and passing lamps. No load issues here.
