    Question Which LED headlight is better?

    I am considering updating the headlights on my F3L to LED's from stock. I see that some of the conversions have cooling fans and others(specifically Lamonts) say that due to the design no fan is required. I know of one person I ride with occasionally had a fan fail and had to replace it when it started making a screeching noise. Would appreciate feedback from anyone who has either style with good or bad thoughts about with or without the fan.

    I had the Bulbs from Lamont in my ST and they were great.

    I'm of the opinion that the less moving parts the better.

    I got mine from TricLED and it was a snap, no pun intended.

    I did not have to do any trimming, cutting or anything at all, it was a breeze. I had them for about a year now and they have been a blessing.

    I also had the Lamonster Headlight replacement on my ST LTD. They worked great and I plan to get them put on my F3L also, especially now that I have the Fog lights and they are a different color.

    I have Lamonts LED headlights and foglights.
    I'm very happy with them. I can only imagine the F3 lights are equally as good.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    Default LED Headlights

    I have the Bulbs from Lamont in my 2013 ST and they work great.

    I agree the less moving parts the better.

    Thumbs up Lack of fan not a problem.

    I already have Lamont's fog lights installed and the lack of fan cooling on his bulbs doesn't seem to be a problem. Thanks for all your input. I'm leaning toward Lamont's headlight bulbs.

    +1 for TricLED. I can't say the install was easy, but I did get it done. Of course, the install has zero to do with the quality of the LED's. That's an accessibility issue depending on your model design.
