highly interested in the high end set.

These are awesome updates! Really great to see a company keep the customers in the loop during the design process.We completed some final testing on the lights today. This is a light tunnel we normally use for testing headlight output but it serves a purpose for testing reverse lights as well. The test was set up to measure Lux from 5' this is much shorter distance than we normally measure headlights but reverse lights have different optics which spread light in a wider pattern so this range gave best results for accurate readings. We tested the factory halogen reverse light, factory LED revere light, and the new LED bumper light.
On the opposite wall we have a Lux meter set up to measure the brightness of each light. The Lux meter is set to Max to record the highest reading the and lamp is articulated back and forth then up and down to read the hottest part of the projection.
First up the factory Halogen light- Brightness of 6 Lux Max.
Next up the factory LED Tail light- Brightness of 7 Lux Max.
Last up is the new LED Bumper Light Prototype- Brightness of 122 Lux Max.
Good question. For the LED tail lights the colors are close since they are both neutral color LEDs. For the halogen tail lights the halogen bulb looks yellow and dingy when compared to the LED but we do have a solution for that. We offer a LED bulb upgrade for the halogen tail lights that matches and we will have a package for the group buy to get a discount on both of you want to upgrade your halogen bulbs to LED at the same time.Does the color temperature match?
Do you have a Group buy code so we can start placing our orders?Good question. For the LED tail lights the colors are close since they are both neutral color LEDs.

Here is the same tail light with the ORACLE 5133-001 LED bulb installed:
The 5133-001 LED Replacement Bulbs actually make the factory tail lights brighter than the factory LED reverse lights.
We have our prototype parts made up and are in the process of initial testing now. Here are some photos. More info coming soon!
Current control is on the board no separate LED driver to deal with.@ORACLElights
Are you using a LED driver with this setup or just direct wire?
What is the proposed amp draw on each of these units?
