Looking for good bright led lights

There is a genuine manitou LED work light option, but the mounting is slightly different to the older shaped cabs, and IMO i don't like the colour of the light they emit much so i wouldn't choose them myself.

Had a few work lights off @UTV Products now and been pleased with them plus just had a pair of LED headlights which look excellent, just awaiting a new bracket from manitou and will get them fitted next week. The headlights wont be for everyone due to cost but i think they will perform very well, if your the type of person that keeps dropping bales on machine then it would get very expensive! Although i think they are a lot sturdier than the plastic lights so the LED's might take a bigger hit to knock off

LED headlights are one certain way to improve lighting in my opinion although depends on type of usage.

On a Manitou one needs to swap bottom wire from one side to other in Deutsch block on loader connection so you use the blank hole. Earth is opposite pin on a Manitou to say JCB.

The light output is quite stunning and you will get clear crisp vision at night.

Await feedback Andrew.
Thank you

Thank you and come standard with a square 2 pin deutsch connector. Usually that correct for Manitou but if yours are different then please do say and we will offer to match. Regards Martin

I wasn't aware the earth pin was different on a Manitou to a JCB IMO? thought they was both the same.

Going by diagram i would need to splice both light cables into one 4 pin deutch connector?

No you wont, the lights have a 2 pin Deutsche connector on them so will plug straight in to that Y harness.

I don’t have the Y harness as the lights/hood aren’t installed, i am retro fitting everything in diagram?

My 741 has hella led work lights which I like but not cheap to buy separate. I got a pair of utv led to replace the boom lights to led and they aren’t half as good as the hella ones. The hella ones have a lot more spread of light and more a blue colour.

If helpful and long enough we have a Y connector on part number UTV726 https://www.ledlightsforsale.co.uk/...tsch-dt-connector?search=utv726&category_id=0

Blue? theirs blue spot for sprayer booms LED lights can be a bit hit or miss, there are so many different variations for different jobs and can vary wildly in price and performance from all manufacturers

I have had 5 x UTV306 and they went down very well with customer, but they appear to have vanished from website? @UTV Products?

Also had 3 x UTV333 for my van and i'm happy with them.

Well more blue than white I mean, hardly blue but not bright white I mean.
