I just noticed there is no way to order anything from him directly via the internet (no shop) just a contact page where they redirect you to another dealer.

Is that intentional or is a shop coming?

Woot in before Biggles :runyay :runyay

Post by: saaz on March 30, 2015, 03:27:53 PM: Clearwater are definitely at the quality end of the market, with high performance to match the prices. The post TJ put up is well worth a read, as it has a link to a very interesting document on lighting. http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=8819.0 (http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=8819.0) as well as comment on different approaches to setting up lights

I have been using the Ericas for nearly a year, and Lionel has had them on a bit longer with much more night time use than I have been able to. Other FarRiders like Fatman have been using them for a while as well. And yes, I can confirm the Ericas resist water ingress, as they went under along with Lionel's ST1300, but still work great. In fact the Ericas were the first thing Lionel thought to take off the ST1300 when in was lying in state - as you know Lionel loves his lights!

Unless you see them in action, it is hard to describe how much light they put out (6000 lumens each). On the ST1100 I am running the 55W HID setup that everyone is familiar with. This is still a great setup, but the Ericas are a step well above them. The advantage that I can remember are: Ericas have less glare back from signs than the HIDs, which is interesting given how much more light they put out; Ericas come on instantly; the reach down the road and spread are awesome; one set of lights is all I can really put on the Trophy (hmm...perhaps...) so the Ericas are the all in one solution (STs have more mounting options above and below the mirrors); relatively compact at 4" so don't stand out too much.

The first time I used them for a few hours was out Deniliquin way en route to the Lake Cargellico FarRide. At first I thought something was weird, and I realised that I could see so much further in the distance, plus the beam spread was lighting up the sides of the roads that you never see with the HIDs. In the flat country this seems a bit strange to start with, as usually a tunnel of light is all you see.In wooded areas you can easily see all the trees going way out to the side, as well as the tops of the trees. It makes previously familiar roads at night seem totally different.

So I recommend that you give the Clearwaters a serious look. Since I bought mine the $A has gone backwards against the $US (the Clearwaters are made wholly in the US), but I would buy them again even at the current prices.

Post by: Yorkie on March 30, 2015, 08:56:58 PM: I will 2nd what Saaz says, I have the Erica's, for that reason when doing FarRides I am selected to lead at night, the other's only have HID's.

Post by: Cerebral Knievel on April 05, 2015, 10:11:47 AM: Looking at getting a set of Erica's but am unsure of what bracket to use under the mirrors.
I really don't like the idea of chopping the mirror housings up to use a seng type mount.
Suggestions ?

Post by: tj189 on April 05, 2015, 10:36:36 AM: You do not see the cutout when it is all together, you will not even notice it.
Title: Re: XenonOz - Clearwater LED & XenonOz HID Lighting solutions
Post by: ST2UP on April 05, 2015, 12:19:34 PM: As Trev said you will never notice the small cut out you will make.....MCL supply the template required. The Over mirror brackets are a little more "in ya face" than the MCL under mirror.

There is another option that look really tidy on the 1300 out of Europe :think1 There name escapes me :|||| But they are a pain for faring removal etc....the bracket comes forward out through the air intake in front of the mirror housing. ;-*

Don't forget your 10% discount :p

Post by: Lionel on April 05, 2015, 04:02:51 PM: I had the over the mirror brackets and they worked well. No cut outs and easy to install.

I just spoke with Frank From Xenonoz about the Separation from Clearwater in America.

While it was mutually agreeable he and the other couple of dealers around the world didn't really have a choice, Clearwater in the U.S have elected to return to being the only supplier of these magnificent lights.

Frank has been in the premier end of the Automotive lighting industry for over 30 years and advises that he has new lighting products about to be released in Australia.......so watch this space :thumbs
