Default Rear mounted LED light bar

So I have a patent pending for this so I'm not afraid to tell anyone anymore and wanted to show y'all. I know backing up in my jeep is a pain bc of the horrible taillights and reverse lights. At this hight on my jk I can fit a 37" spare of course, I run 35s so I'll stick to a 35" spare. This light is 10,000 lumens and 21" wide, I have a 7.5, 10 and 12" mount in the works.

Seems a little over kill for a reverse light. I'm trying to figure out a way to mount my Rigid SRM2 similar to that.

Make a mount for the SRM that shines between the spokes of the spare tire and I'll be your first customer

Looks awesome! If the price is right I would definitely buy one. What's the size you have in the first pic?

Probably not meant for a reserve light but rather being on the trail and needing that extra bit of light in the rear for another Jeep or doing work as some trails are tight and wont allow for a u turn.

To to burst your bubble or anything but.......
Lol just kidding I think is a great idea and is a great spot light as well as a buck up light and no is not overkill when is dark and you need a light in the back or backing up in the woods at night and need to see more than just next to your rear bumper.

1st pic is a 21" but I think 10" is more than enough.

lol no worries this is for the stock tire carrier. I like the way that one is set up th for sure. Isn't that AEV? They require bottom mounting.
