Truck-Lite has released three new products, a 5 in. by 7 in. LED headlamp, a 7 in. round LED headlamp and a wiring adapter.
Truck-Lite says its LED headlamp, Part #27450C, was designed to utilize two LED arrays and complex reflector, creating smooth, even light output and streamlined appearance.
The 5 in. by 7 in. LED headlamp system is said to meet and exceed FMVSS-108 and CMVSS-108 DOT requirements for both low and high beam performance. New LED technology has enabled Truck-Lite to engineer LED headlamp products that produce light far closer to the actual color temperature of natural sunlight (6,000K) than conventional incandescent or halogen lamps, the company says. The lamps multi-volt design works with both 12v and 24v systems.
Truck-Lite says its 7 in. LED Headlamp, Part #27270C, utilizes a new light delivery method, adopting parabolic reflector technology to create a smooth, even light output. The use of metalized reflector optics provides a clean and homogeneous spread of light, more uniform than other options, without any targeted or focused beams or projector-type color artifacts, the company says.
The 7 in. headlamp also is said to meet and exceed FMVSS-108 and CMVSS-108 DOT requirements for both low and high beam performance. The lamp is designed with Omni-Volt technology to accommodate both 12v and 24v headlamp applications, the company says, providing crisper and whiter light output than halogen alternatives while extending product life and adding dependability.
The company says its wiring adapter has been designed to work together with select Truck-Lite LED marker lamps to manage the amount of light the lamps deliver, adding a second, brighter function to the lamps.
During normal driving, Truck-Lite says the pigtail operates the lamps at standard marker light output levels, until a brake function is made. When the brake is applied, the pigtail increases the light output, providing an increased level identification to those tailing the vehicle. By providing a second function to the marker lamp application, Truck-Lite says typical marker lamp installations now can assist with stop and turn awareness. The pigtails install directly into traditional harness connections, making use of existing brake functions.
