Got a 5-3/4 LED made by JW speaker sold thru Headwinds. Blackface only at this time - Chrome face will be out shortly. Installed easily - No problem as I have a PDM installed. Don't know what effect an ECH would have but mine seems to work great!!!

Nice. I hate my stocker. Would like to replace it but from what I've read options are limited and risky with an ehc. Looks good. I would definetly do more night riding with a better one.

Love it.

I have the hd version on my SG. My only complaint is it is hard to distinguish sand\road salt on the side of the road. The color of the light is almost the same......at least to me.

Very cool- I think the black looks good. Was thinking of doing the same. I just put on an Adjure bucket with new refector and hight output H4 bulb. better than the stock sealed beam light which was pathetic.

Do you notice a big difference between low beam and high beam spread? I typically ride with high beam on all the time.

My buddy just put the Daymaker 7" setup (Which is of course the JW Speaker light) including driving side lights on his 09 Road Glide. Holy shit that is BRIGHT

Electronically this JW LED insert should not make any diff with EHC or any other OBC electronics- it draws less amperage than a halogen but still presents a typical 12v load and is designed to work with modern motorcycles / automobiles.

That looks way cool. I had the HID kit from Low Down Chop Shop and after about a year I developed some really odd starting problems. I finally pulled the light out and haven't had them since. Still running my EHC on my 06 K9. I really miss the HID, but don't miss the high/low problem or the weird start issue it developed. I think the ballast was grounding out inside the bucket as Jake told me he started wrapping them in a rubber of some sort as I think he had the same issue.

Forum sponsor have a hookup on these?? I'd rather get one from one of you guys!

Looks great. Next on my list. :2thumbs:

what is the price of that light ?

KaptinAmerika · Oct 5, 2013

I have an item on its way that I believe will resolve the EHC issue with the HID headlight system. As soon as I have it in and tested I will let everyone know and, if it resolves the issue, will have them available on WSW. We are also working on our dealership with JW Speakers so we hope to have the LED system available shortly as well.

No there is no update on the e-PAK system. I have limited labor here and unfortunately I have had to fall back to manufacturing for a few weeks to get inventory back up. We will resume the e-PAK development as soon as we are through this and hope to have it in the first bike within 1 to 2 weeks after that.

I know there is discussion on the "Other Site" about how people over here are talking about things they know nothing about but don't believe everything you read.
WSW has a high end electronics engineer that we consult with on everything we are doing.

I love the LED headlight and it would be great to purchase this through WSW, I can wait. I have these on my Road Glide and they're perfect in every way.

Hopefully these come down in price. I saw a lot at Thunder Beach Rally over the weekend. Also hope they come out with a clear version as well.

I Man
I Read that you have a PDM installed on your bike.
What is that?
Does that have some thing to do with the plug for you OEM light bulb?
I have the same year mastiff as you, Can I install that bulb in my stock bucket? Any major mods needed?
FYI I have a wire plus installed

BTW
I was just on Headwinds web site,
I Purchased the light with shipping for 352.69
That's a awesome price IMHO

PDM is a kit that replaces the EHC.....similar to your wire plus.
