Hey all,
My new 8070 is in need of a few work lights. the originals went bad and they swapped to a different housing and it doesn't look very good. our old project 305 is missing a few too.
Im on a low budget, so was hoping to find some usable takeoff units that people had kicking around after a LED swap.
Let me know what you have.
Thanks!

I definitely understand cheapness - it runs in my family too, but your attempt to be cheap can end up costing you more in the long term. You are looking to buy 35 year old lights. They do not get better with age and they do not like being jostled about in someone's barn. Eventually you find some. You drive to pick them up. You spend time to hook them up. Then you find that most could not make it through your planting season. Where do you go from there? Trying to track down more used ones and go through the same process (several times over)?
Instead of that aggravation, why not buy new ones, put them on once and get many years of good service out of them? Yes, they will cost more now, but they will be cheaper in the long run, rather than having to search, buy, install and repeat every few years. Just my 2 cents.

Last new ones from Agco that I bought were $60 a piece. Not really outrageous but not super cheap either. I haven't ever checked but Napa might be able to get them. They are Hobbs lights.
