The Baja Designs LP6 and XL80 are both high-output pods — but they're aimed at different builds. The LP6 is a 6” round with integrated position lighting; the XL80 is a compact-but-powerful pod popular on motorcycles and electric dirt bikes. Here's how to choose.
Quick verdict
- LP6 — big output plus an integrated amber/white position light; ideal for trucks, UTVs and overland rigs where the round look and peripheral light fit.
- XL80 — maximum output in a pod that suits motorcycles and electric dirt bikes (Sur-Ron, Talaria, E-Ride Pro), as well as auxiliary roles.
