Good Lights Limited Customization
They’re nice and bright and they also work very well my only issue is that the cord coming from the light isn’t longer and doesn’t have a connector piece at the end on top of that you don’t have full customization of the patterns for example if it’s Christmas and I want too flash green and red I can’t some patterns also change colors when you turn the vehicle on

Nice lights for the price
These lights are well made, easy to install, and can be very bright (it is adjustable). I like that it came with a remote so I don't have to rely solely on an app to control them, as the only app that seems to work is absolute garbage (Led DMX). I keep the halo lights on at night with a mid brightness orange to match my signals. I use the red halo and flashing white center when running emergency calls with the fire department. So far, so good.

The lights themselves are cool, the mounting is dumb.
The units work and look great, the wiring couldn't have been simpler, but the mounting was dumb as hell. There's no way to get a 10MM wrench in there to hold the nut in place while you tighten the allen screws from the outside. I saw a guy in the reviews had to break the fins to get a wrench in there (I understand why now). I used a pair of needle nose pliers to hold the nut in place while I tighten it and its still "loose". It's held in place, but you can easily grab the light and move it up and down (not sure how it's gonna hold up to 75mph). Other than the mounting I really like them tho. Would buy again.

Great First Impression, Not Perfect for Great Value for the Money
This is an initial impression product review as I have not yet installed these on my Jeep and therefore cannot attest to durability while off-roading.The lights themselves appear to be well constructed in solid metal housings which look well sealed. Total length for each light wiring harness (end to end) is about nine and a half feet. This is the total length from battery point connection to the light. The on/off switch wire is about eight feet long.Connecting the lights are easy and stupid proof. There is literally no way to mess this up. Red to positive, black to ground and it does not matter which light connects to which controller connector. Just plug in the harnesses to the connector and then turn the round locking knob for each harness to keep the connection secure. That's it.There are two ways to control the brightness and color schemes for this light: (1) Use the supplied remote control (You will need to purchase a CR2025 battery for the remote as it does not come supplied with the product). (2) Use the Blue Tooth Feature via your smart device (You'll need to download the app to your phone). The manufacturer has made this easy for you as they have supplied instructions that show you how to scan the QR code on the controller. Once you scan that code, it will take you to the download page on your device and you can download from there. Super easy. I had no issues with my iphone XS Max connecting to the lights via the app but my personal preference is using the remote control.Important to note that if you choose to use the blue tooth app, you will need to give the app permission to access your itunes media files. This is one of those China designed apps so if privacy is a concern for you, you may want to stick to the remote control, but I think the app does give you a little more functionality for the color lights. I've not had a lot of time using the app yet, so can't opine much about it yet.Also important to note that no matter which option you choose, remote or blue tooth, you must ensure the power switch is selected to ON or else neither option will work. Sounds obvious, but given some of the reviews I've read from people who may be technology challenged, I thought it worth mentioning.Ok, as for the lights themselves, it appears there are actually two sets of lights within each light. The very outer ring of lights are color capable and brightness can be controlled via the remote or blue tooth app. The lights in the center inside the outer ring are white only and cannot change color, nor are they capable of being adjusted for increasing or decreasing brightness. The good news is that the remote control allows you to decide if you want just the color lights on, or just the white lights on, or both. I'm still playing with the blue tooth app and as of this writing I could only get the blue tooth app to control the color lights. The app does not appear to be able to control the white lights at all, to include turning them on or off. Might be operator error, there is no instruction manual for using the app so I'm learning as I go.I'm really impressed with how bright these lights are, brighter than I thought they would be as they are only rated at 18 watts. Both the remote and the app allow for brightness control for the outer ring (color lights). Oh, and even though I keep referring to the outer ring as color lights, they are also white light capable.The light mount design could be better and if you curse at all during the installation of these lights it will be due to attaching the mounts to the lights. The mounts are designed to slide inside the light housing and there is not much room to insert tools to tighten them. You probably do not have a wrench small enough to hold the locking nut in place. Also, there are no lock washers supplied for the bolts that attach the mount to the light. Here is what I did:1. Went to Home Depot and bought 4 quarter inch lock washers for nineteen cents each (two lock washers for each light). If you plan on mounting these lights on a vehicle, spend the eighty cents and get the lock washers or else you'll find yourself having to constantly tighten the bolts as they will loosen due to bumps, vibration, etc.2. Used a small needle nose pliers to position the lock washers onto the bolts. Repeated this for positioning the nuts onto the bolts.3. Inserted a flat head screwdriver between the light housing and the nut to prevent the nut from spinning as I tightened the bolt with an allen wrench.Using the needle nose pliers and flat head screwdriver while being patient and gentle, installation took about ten minutes without scratching the housing or breaking off cooling fins.Final note about the App installation: Once you scan the QR code and download the app, the app will have about 7 different options to select from. The only one that seems to work for this light set is the LED DMX one. I tried the other ones (LED BLE, LED SMART, LED STRIP, etc) and the lights did not respond to them. The single page instruction that comes with the lights will also tell you to use the LED DMX. So, save yourself time and confusion and just the the LED DMX option.Once I get these installed on my truck (Today) and get some off road time, I'll update my review. Bottom line, So for I'm happy. These lights are solidly built, bright, the remote control is easy to use and works well. The app could be better (or they could provide instructions for it) but for the price, I am more than satisfied.

Very bright and worth every cent
If you are looking for a bright light for off roading… this is the answer. It's like someone turned on the daylight. I am very pleased. Also Nicoko lights are very quick to respond if you do have problems. Excellent lights way beyond what I expected for the money.

Update, poor quality FIRE HAZARD *update*
UPDATE!!! Control box burst into flames!!!! DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!!Fair warning. The spotlight portion of nicoko’s LED’s seemingly are controlled by the remote only. There is no option for “led only” and “spotlight only” switches. They don’t throw the most spectacular amount of light but let’s be honest, if you’re putting these on your rig, you’re not doing it for serious off roading or crawling. If you’re looking to make a statement at jeep jam, this is a must have.UPDATE: within a month the led’s stopped working. I believe it’s due to the poor construction of the relay housing allowing water in. All other nicoko stuff has aluminum sealed housings but this one is plastic with huge gaps. Very very VERY poor construction and it doesn’t last!!!!!!! UPDATE: *Seller has refunded my initial payment and also offered to replace the items*. However I have removed all Nicoko products from my vehicle. Seller requested amend review further to state “problem is resolved” and to delete pictures.

Love It!
Install was pretty straight forward. Only wish the wiring harness was able to hide behind the light bar mount. The wiring harness is round and does not flatten out. Couple zip ties holds the harness in place. Seeing the harness is black and so are the pillars, it kind of blends in. The App took a couple try’s for it to sinc up, once it did I’ve had no issues with it. The amount of colors and light sequences is crazy. Adds a pretty unique look the JK.

Looks cool
I loved it for awhile now the Bluetooth doesn't work stays on bright can't turn the brightness down to see the lights very well

mounting brackets are no good
Light is extremely bright and the remote works really good as well, however the mounts are garbage and I couldn't get them to stay tight I could get them as tight as possible but they would work themselves loose again I tried washers and different angles but same thing
