I have only had this a short time, so I can't speak to the longevity of this light. I don't doubt it will last, but that's my disclaimer. If you are worried about this light not being bright enough because it's not a "BD" or an "R" don't worry! It is bright! I have this in combination with the Cali side throw Ditch Lights. This is my first experience with offroad LED lights, but I seriously can't imagine it getting any better. I can see everything to the side and hundreds of feet in front for much less $ than those other brands. If you're wanting to get into LED offroad lights or want something better than the $20 Amazon lights and want bright, I think these fit that niche perfectly.
