Editor: You have chosen death.

😂😂😂😂😮 did Nolan wrong lol
This season should just be called doin Nolan dirty lol
Toy katana sound 🤣
The $90 lightbar is WAY more affordable and works well enough versus $2000 lights. No wonder a lot of country trucks have these things.
I like the way the cheap light bar looks better.
Accidentally honking and scaring himself is why I love Nolan
The final test should be a cross country overland trip that tests the reliability and longevity of all the mods
I mean, low car is going to breakdown and need to be left/towed/repaired somewhere.

They should make it a roadtrip from Miami to Toronto.
@@garbagetrash2938 its a toyota... they haven't used any performance upgrades yet so it wouldn't breakdown.
Please!!!!!! That sounds like a great end to the season!!
James and Zach, you guys should take low car/truck next. Switch it up!
The KCs are cool, but for $1,920 less, the Lo Truck one is super nice.

Yes! Had me in stitches
I really want them to compare the weight of both vehicles by the end of this. Hi Truck has gotta be significantly heavier
And I'd say less capable off road because of it.
Seriously. Hi truck has got to be quite the pooch now with all that extra weight.
@@GasTank87 Seriously they could be 1000 pounds heavier by the time their done. The Bumpers the roof rack, the winch, the fancier lockers and associated equipment, and it's all heavy duty stuff so none of it was designed to be light weight.
@@s.willis8426 not just 1000lbs but a lot of it is up real high… the centre of gravity is getting worse.
That's why the folk with the most expensive stuff is mostly street queens
$90 lightbar user here - MUCH better to have spread than distance on trails
My set up on my suburban is a light bar on top of the vehicle and a light bar set inside of the bull bar in the front of the vehicle. I also have a light bar set into the rear bumper as well. Total cost a bit under $600.
When it comes to lights, this is one of those "middle ground is best" type things. Like, there is absolutely no need to spend 2k on a light bar, but spending the bare minimum is also not the greatest. Spend a few hundred on some quality lights and you'll be happy.
Yes like spend a few bucks on a pair or 2 of the old school style kc lights they put on the bumper and call it good. 2 on a roll bar aimed slightly out and 2 on the bumper more straight forward would be plenty and not break the bank.
Baja style racing would be the only time you'd need extremely far shinning lights when off roading. For what they are doing that massive roof light bar system is not necessary.
I spent $90US ($120 Australian) for the spotlights i have on my truck they are awesome, super bright really nice colour temperature aswell (more of a daylight white and not a blueish white) in my opinion i cant really see the point of spending 2K on a set of lights
I went from a set of those older KC to a cheaper light bar. Blew those KCs out of the water and it's still running 8 years later. So longevity isn't an issue either.
why not buy 2 cheap bars for $90 each? Blow the the $2k lights out of the water and use the other $1820 for more mods! Seems like they need "low guy", "high guy" and also a "smart guy".
Yeah , I feel like if they maybe spent like 200-300$ ( still a low budget ) there’s probably a light bar that can compete with kc . Feel like they should do that with every episode . Low truck gets garbage compared to high . When there is items still on a budget that could compete with the high truck purchases lol
The katana sound effect was spot on. James saying "whoaaa that's ugly" immediately killed me as well.
"Git trucked up and call your Mom" could be a top 10 rap hit! Possibly No.1!
Cheap lights are no worse and can be replaced multiple times at the cost.
I'd go with low truck on this one. You can add 2 more front HID lights for long throw beams and still be low budget
Really need to put Nolan on High team next season. I'm feeling his pain now and I can't even afford a project car 😥
he wanted to be on low team tho
Its about quality and reliability at the end of the day
We need a "get trucked" shirt!!
For another hundred bucks you could have had a really good spotlight mounted to low truck I'm not spending two grand on a set of lights because of the freaking logo
Exactly, also you do not need to see 500 meters infront of you when you offroad. Low trucks wide and smooth visibility is what you want when offroading.
dont get me wrong, high car's lights are a lot better but fuck off are they 2 grand better lmao, low car could've easily spent slightly more and gotten a very similar result
Exactly! In what universe is the more expensive light setup a better option?! A $2000 worth of friggin' lights can be justified ONLY if you are buying anti aircraft illumination!
The main downsight of Low lights is not the lower performance. It's the reliability. Those chinese led systems get hot af. Not only that can fail, but the water seal in the enclosure can fail anytime, leaving you with no lights when you need them the most.
With these kind of survival tools you are paying the reliability mainly, not just the punctual performance. But yeah, the difference is way too much. There must be a reliable choice in-between the two.
Pretty much what I did then bought the covers with the logos of eBay and bang no one can tell the dif
There's a 20-fold difference in price between the two. I wonder, is there a (let's say) $500 option that has a good combination price, performance, and looks?
That's the thing. The KCs were 20x more expensive but only offered 2x more lux in the tests. James kept mentioning that they are scientifically better lights but didn't really grapple with the fact that those same measurements demonstrated a much worse value proposition for high truck. I just really doubt that the modularity and look, which is totally subjective, can account for that kind of markup. I would guess that a $500 setup that more closely resembled the look and features of the KCs would eliminate them from consideration. If it could offer similar modularity and looks while at least maintaining similar lux to the lightbar, it's a slam dunk for low truck.
So next time a middle of road mods? Best option middle of price between two. $100 to close to $3000? $1500 would get you a lot.
I think you'd do way better getting 2000$ worth of 90$ lights 😁
@@jake2011rt Psssh, "scientifically better" they used a light meter, that's just one metric of measurement.
They mostly seemed to enjoy the looks of the KCs, which isn't very scientific.
Personally, I would have liked to have seen MPG ratings before and after the lights were installed on each truck, those things must cause hella drag and wind resistance and maybe measurable drops in fuel economy.
@@MrTheHillfolk That would be lulz, and also blinding.
High truck is getting crazy and low truck is becoming a metaphor for my whole life
A solid $250 light bar will do
The dark spot immediately in front of high truck would drive me nuts though despite the significantly better light
Same... Flood lights are better as area lights, row of spots will look like one, uneven lights with prominent shadows. I also would think that seeing more to the sides is way more useful than seeing twice as long... which you most likely won't be able to see since there is going to be very bright region close by. If you ask LD which solution should be used, they will say flood lights.
I got you cover bro ruclips.net/video/AGCqzDsZVzk/видео.html
Now they need better headlights!
@@vSparq I was going to say, that could have been at the spot where, to me, it looked like they were driving with headlights off just to see what their aftermarket lights alone were like... But I'd have to imagine that 2000 dollar lights are going to assume you have some gnarly headlights as well, since you're obviously not sparing any expense to illuminate the area around you...
Headlights are supposed to light up the immediate vicinity in front of you, up to a couple hundred feet. If they had some gnar headlights, then they may find that those KC lights were MUCH more usable, and the low trucks lightbar may not even make *any difference at all* when turned on, once you've got super bright headlights already lighting up that immediate area in front of you, which is where the lightbar really shined, pun intended. The only thing it may do at that point is illuminate some of the area in their peripherals a bit better than your headlights are designed to do, due to not wanting to blind other drivers..
And yes I'm talking with proper headlight housings for the type of lights they install, and beams angled properly down in front of the truck, as opposed to directly in oncoming traffic's effing eyes like EVERY TRUCK OWNER EVER does!
"These'r great! Hmm.. I tilt these sumbitches up a bit more n I cn see a helluva lot better in fronna me! N nobody else but me needsta see when Im the one drivin the truck! Manafachurers sure is stoopid fer not thinkina this one!"

Maybe I’ll buy a + $100k Ford truck to go with the lights
Please do this with tuner cars
I'd love if they made a "importance" list and decided where stuff fit in. So for instance if you only had $X,000 to upgrade your truck, what high parts are important enough for you to spend your money on and what low parts can you get by with. Because tbh low lights worked fine, and even though both James and Nolan went for high lights, I think this would be on the bottom of the list of importance
Isn't that exactly what this is, comparing high cost items to low cost items? Watch the series and decide what items that are pricey are worth spending your money on... and f everyone who tells you otherwise. It's your truck... or car, or whatever
I said this last week. I want a short follow up where Nolan and James have to agree where they spend the money on a truck. Nolan can be the wife and is the husband.
yeah like someone else said, they’re presenting the individual components, you decide how you prioritize the overall list... Of course, for any off road vehicle, tires and suspension are the foundation and should come first.
I think they do that at the end of the series
they did that in the last episode of the last series, i imagine they will do the same here
The light out of the KC's was more warm. I think that's what Nolan means by "more real"
Yeah daylight yellowish warmth vs the artificial blue light that a lot of white LEDs give off.
Actually the characteristic "blue" LED color is much closer to the temperature color range of daylight compared to the warm halogen glow. People just think halogen looks more natural because it is closer to the color of "artificial" light sources like fire and filament lights.
@@crisprapper daylight its actually around 5000K, white with a light blue hue
@@jpiccari Exactly.
The LED bars kelvin rating is like 6000k. The KC lights have a kelvin rating of 5000k which is closer to the suns kelvin rating. That's why OEM HIDs are 4300k. Closest to natural sun light. Warmer light color is much better especially in dusty and foggy conditions.

Low low low. For the money, you could spend another 90 bucks for a second bar at the grill level, and have the dosh to replace the whole kit 20 more times if it breaks. Once again, middleground proves to be the best, but I would never give this W to hi truck, even as someone who loves the look of big bulbous round KC's.

I was surprised the gave the win to the hi team

I swear, get ChrisFix in HiLow series on the Low team, it'd be a blast!
“Can I get a katana sound effect?”
(Gives Nolan a slide whistle)
It would be really great if the next season of Hi-Low they swapped James to be on Low team and Nolan on High team. Still bet James could sell how sick the Low parts are.
i agree, and i think it should be drag cars, like some camaros or mustangs where they do tires, suspension, turbos/ supercharger. in my opinion it would be super entertaining

From 00:00 to 00:05, Jobe looks like Donut Jesus.
The “looks more real” with the lighting is called CRI, colour rendering index. Cheap lights have SFA which means everything looks blue and fake.
Thanks for info! I could actually use this to simulate headlights at night in a game, if it's worth the calculations.
How is it possible for a light to looks fake? In real life

9:04 Jesus coming out of the tomb
Low team gets this one for me. Only because they insisted so much on the "looks" of the KC to give it the win. I could do some searching and easily find some LEDs that have the same looks as the KC at a "Low Team" budget.
Also I think the Low foglights should have been near the middle so the light was a little more focused.
For real, like how about something half way, like KC style rack with LEDs at like 2-500 dollars or so. Low budget doesn't mean you have to go rock bottom choices
I only gave the win to LoTruck because of practicality. The lights do their job just fine and get the job done.
Legit you can find replicas or similar styled light bar of the KC for 200-500$ bet they work and look just as good as the OG
Or they could have added 2 more in the middle
Yeah they could stack 2 90$ lightbars also....

Low truck definitely took the W on this one. There's no practical reason to need that much light that far on the trail. Low Truck had a much better pattern. The KC is good if you like looks and don't care about spending stupid money.
100%, who in their right mind would spend $2000 on lights when the $90 light bar is plenty sufficient.
Agree. What they said is completely irrelevant....those KCs are not even close to "be worth it".
@@JP_A3 long term you might want something a bit better though. Feel like a Lazer led bar would be better. Slots in right in the middle in terms of price and gets you a proper warranty and support.
@@isakgustavsen6536 that's the only thing that's actually different is reliability. They should've gone off-road to bang them around to see how they hold up. That being said, you could either keep replacing those light bars or spend a little more and get a reliable one (assuming that one actually isn't reliable)
facts
Whats the wattage on all of these? Is there a risk of running your battery low?
Editor did Nolan dirty with that slide whistle lol
A interesting, informative test on comparing both types. I have been running a LED bar for maybe 4 years, it gets a lot of use being in Australia. For the money I would go the cheaper bar, there is only a certain amount of light you need to see the road for safety. I would be tempted to add a second full length bar to the bull bar though, so $180 is still far short of the $2k.
These yanks don’t understand how real 4x4s are built, everything down under is better
Uhmm, these light bars are rated for 'off-road' use and arn't ment to be used on public daily use roads. Because they are like hi-beam and blind the oncoming driver which can cause a serious accident. City drivers who put these light bars it on their city suv's and such...just to use it in city because it ''looks cool'' are bunch of d.... (not trying to offence you, just saying)
I dont know in AU, but in EU if you have one mounted & even disconnected and go to car inspection, you will fail it, because these light bars are not for road use and will have to reapply for inspection again specially taking it down b4 the inspection. And if you'r unlucky to be invited in one of the 'car road-side inspections', then also police will fine you because of it and/or even remove your road legal sticker and stamp on temp. one so that you remove the bar and again need to go to inspection to get your car 'road legal' again.
@@LooNeYlv any (reasonable) person using such lights, if they even use them on the roads at all (many don't, including myself on all but the darkest nights on roads with no streetlights), turns them off when there is incoming traffic, basically using them like upgraded highbeams for when there is no one in front of you.
Also, thats horrible I would hate to live somewhere like that-
@@LooNeYlv in Australia, you are allowed up to 4 additional driving lights. They must be able to be turned off with their own switch, and they must turn off on low beam.
Living in Alaska I need quality lights. Winter is cold and harsh on lights, also the bumps on the road kill bars, I’ve destroyed multiple from road chatter. I’ve never had a rigid, Baja or my vision x bars fail.
For me, low team wins on this one. The 2000$ lights are only if you're really serious about off-roading at night. I've seen many 100 buck light setups being way more than adequate in situations where you can't see anything without them
I feel like KCs R&D department just cant keep up with all the LED tech coming out of China and Korea
I think thats a pretty fair assessment. I have a combination of dirt cheap and mildly cheap lights on my right. My light bar was about $500 and works perfectly fine for what I need it to do. The light pods I have were amazon specials and they work fine. My only complaint with the pods is the finish hasnt held up very well but my jeeps not a show rig so that doesnt bother me.
These guys were smoking crack to choose kc
@@sixpath Or were paid to choose them
I agree but I think they could have done better on the brackets for a more sleek look like a rough country roof mounts
Man they are BURNING UP the headlight fluid, unbelievable!
High trucks lights vibrated every bump. Low trucks was solid.
I prefer the low truck visibility at night personally, I'd run it on the grill/bumper tho so the hood wouldn't be bright as f, if you get good HID's or powerful offroad led's for the headlights you can get the distance of the KC's. That's how I run my set up now and it's bright as F.
Good vid
Yeah and they're going to get smashed...I'll take low because of the price to replace
They prolly made a mistake putting it too front cuz they kinda blinding themselves with the hood. But ye bumpers are definitely where they belong
it's supposed to be a little bit on the back so it doesn't create a huge glare on the hood. ChrisFix made a video on how to mount one years ago as well.

@@mal3762 yeah, they are not fan of chris fix haha.

I kinda want the teams to swap if you guys do a next season. Would love to see Nolan get to work on Hi-Car :)
Also, you can buy another lightbar and have more light if you wanted. For under $200 total
I also want to see the look on Jame's face getting low car.

Brooooo the katana sound effect when Nolan unsheathes the light bar😂😂😂😂

You guys should do cheap vs expensive spacers
You should do a rock light set up next
Based on those lux measurements, I'd still go with low truck's setup. It's only 25% of the light, sure, but it costs 5% of what hi truck got. That plus an easier install, I'm sold. Low truck really bangs my buck, if you know what I'm sayin'
Totally agree.
Adding separate switch, two more bumper mounted lights @$50? Add shorter rear mounted light bar. (Backing up, hooking up, easy)
I dont like how focused the kc lights are. With how bright they are they could have dispersed the light more and they'd still seem crazy bright.
I live in a remote part of Montana, where there is a lot of "in between" towns, lots of critters, and not many people. In the winter you can drive at night for hours and not see another car, and sometimes that's just the commute! Bright lights are worth every penny and everything from Honda Civics to semi trucks run extra lights. And mostly we're not criminals...
I live in a small-ish town up a mountain pass and at night, extra lights are pretty handy. Mostly for the critters, less for criminal activity lol
Had KCs on the jeep in Maine in 89-91. It was like daylight at night if there was snow on the ground. Felt bad if we went by a farm house. Sure the Farmers hated how bright it must get when we went by.
I understand the look but for the price a decent size light bar and led headlights are usually more then enough. I had a 42” bar 2 spots and led headlights in my old Jeep Liberty and went from AB to British Columbia at night in winter. It was like driving the sun!
"And we're mostly not criminals..."
that's an interesting way to put that huh...

Keep this series going guys. One thing I notice between the two is the light stability when driving, The LED light bar and pods were not shaky compare to the $2K KC light's shakes when driving.
That most likely is because low trucks brackets were screwed directly to the body while hi trucks lights were mounted on a roof rack. The roof rack is going to more vibrations and flex to get to the lights. If the KC lights were mounted to the chassis, the stability should have been about the same.
katana sfx, nailed it
Do old muscle cars next
"looks count for a lot" James sounds like he never leaves LA lol
When you put looks in a car that was meant to be a practical off road build, that just means he probably thought it wasn't worth that much money compared to low teams, not to mention as other people are saying, low team could have spent like another 90 dollars to put another light bar in the grill or something else as well.
No More Parties in LA
@@davidcazares7441 please baby no more parties in LA
Lol why does caring about your appearance have to be an LA thing? I know Americans generally have a terrible sense of style and aesthetics, but don't act like caring about appearance is the weird option of the two. Lol!
If looks count for a lot, then low team wins by a mile, those KCs look ugly and antiquated compared to the sleek modern light bar. That said, if I'm building an off-roader, looks count for nothing, because very few people will ever see it, the trails just aren't that packed. Function is what counts, and that extra $2000 can go a LONG way to better use than paying to have the KC brand stamped on the front.
The price when one of hi-trucks bulbs blows or gets smashed vs cost of replacing the whole light setup on low-truck?
It will still be cheaper. You can break the low team light bar 20 times over and it'll still be cheaper
@@ashutoshswain4342 Also KC will probably tell you that to get the light output from factory you need to buy a bulb which will probably cost at least half of what the whole light system of low truck was
The kc’s not worth 20 times the money than the LED bar
The lights are LED...what bulb is going to blow?
@@AveragePicker "or smashed" learn to read the whole thing and electronics fail. LEDs are in that category.

This was a comparison between apples and pears.
The narrow and far reaching beam of the KC is ment for racing while the cheapo bars wide and shorter beam is better suited for actual hard terrain where you have to see what's going on in front of your bumper instead of what's 50 meters in front of you.
Exept for if you participate at the Dakar ralley, the cheapo clearly winns in practicality only because the KC setup isn't 20 times better, it's not even 5 times better. And if you're just on a budget both in money and self esteem, just buy generic throwers and order some KC covers that fit.
That drone shot at 11:40 is amazing, you can see how bright the KCs are at a distance.
I love this series, but can we give Nolan hi-car next time?
This, I want so much
When daddy James says no, he means no.
Agreed!!
No.
No. Nolan still has his head on his shoulders. He’d be frugal with the money. James is going for top tier items.
Lux test was a game changer! Nice touch!
we have the low car lights on our forerunner, and teh two block lights on the back are at an uneven angle where one points down slightly "fuck you lights" as my dad put it. "someone sitting behind u with highs on? fuck you lights"
I think with the cheaper lights, you should've ordered 2 of the light bars, had one on the grille and one on the roof. Also, you could have just wired the spots and the bars into a different switch each. But for that amount of light, a 20x price increase seems a touch steep.
Up To Speed: Ford Australia when?
give it the beams!
Yall should throw on the Whelen RC spotlights
