I've had cheap and not so cheap (PIIA, Denali) LEDs aux lights and then I got the Clearwater Darlas.
They all work as they should. They're all either bright, extra-bright or way too bright. A dimmer is strongly recommended.
The cheap ones I had to make/adapt the harness. One pair didn't last more than a few months due to moisture.
One cheap set would not work with a PWM dimmer. Sold that set before I got to use them.
The PIIAs came with a good harness but failed after two years, also due to moisture.
The Denali I've installed on my wife's bike. The attachment is not very well thought out and gets loose after a while, even with loctite.
No issues with the Darlas. Install was a breeze, no splicing or cutting required. You control them with the wonder wheel.
