Hella Black Magic LED light bar: Installation & review

The SUV's headlight cluster is a sealed unit with an LED setup and has no options for further upgrades.

BHPian Mathan1130 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

One pending modification was to improve the headlight throw in my Hyundai Tucson. The light throw is good for the city roads but for highway drive its inadequate. The headlight cluster is a sealed unit with an LED setup and has no options for further upgrades. So the search leads me to Hella light bar which was the only solution. Decided to get the black Magic series which was the slimmest light bar with the perfect fit/size for Tucson.

Features:

  • LED high-beam light bar
  • Full blackout appearance
  • Sleek design
  • Intense light output
  • Temperature Control System

Specifications

  • 21 High-intensity LEDs
  • IP 68, IP 69K
  • Die-cast aluminium housing
  • Color temperature: 5700 Kelvin
  • 105 W
  • Measured lumen: 6000 lm
  • Weight: 1400 g
  • Dimensions:20.6? W x 1.9? H x 2.1? D / 522 x 47 x 55 mm

Here are the pictures of the Hella Light Bar Unit.

Just the light bar

Note: There is no risk for oncoming traffic, the light is focused, pointed on the ground and does not scatter much. I don't use this in a city & this is only for highway runs. There is a separate switch to turn on/off the light bar!
