I installed the 32" double row hybrid almost a year ago and have had no issues with it. I use it about 3-4x a week on late night trips back home once I hit the country highways. I'm not too concerned about the high beam triggers as I often just use them instead of my high beams. They have a much better throw to spot deer on the sides of the road, especially if my fogs are running in combination with the low beams.

I have this installed and us the XB Bluetooth dongle that reads the CAN signals and kicks on the lightbar when I activate the high beams. You can add power units as well for other lights. It read things like backup lights, break lights, hazards, etc.

I appreciate the tip, but it appears that device costs as much or more than the light bar by itself, and seems to have limited availability/utility for US vehicles.

I have the Supernova, and it's a nice light bar. Fit was good, install was relatively easy.

But...

Altiq told me they thought the bar would work with a high beam trigger, which was an important feature for me, but it does not for N. American manufactured RRs. I was suspicious from the outset that the NA trucks' AUX switches wouldn't work that way, due to a bit of google rumor, so I bought their pigtail relay harness for an extra $60, which they assured me would work, but it did not either. There's no 12V trigger signal in the pigtail that goes into the RR head lights.

I'm a little miffed at their customer service, which was a bit frustrating with communications. They were initially fairly responsive, but ended up ghosting me, and I still haven't figured out a way to slave the light to the high beams. Without that, I feel like I've wasted $360 on something I'll almost never use, due to poor/misleading info from Altiq.

That said, for those that don't care about high beam sync, it seems like a good light for the price.
High beam sync as in it the bar is on for low beam and off on high or vice versa

They've been good at answering my emails however after digging deeper the pro rock lights they have will not plug and play with the OEM RR pigtails so I'll be buying different lighting. Budget is an issue so it may take me some time but I don't wanna be cutting and splicing and testing wires.

Ended up doing a little "customization" and was able to get my Diode Dynamics light to fit which was very satisfying as I didn't have to lay out more money and got the amber I wanted to go with the amber around the headlights.

Install is easy, just follow the video on their website. You will need to route the cord around the radiator lovers. I also worked the cord through the openings in the radiator support. The wiring is straight forward per their video.
