Lighting FAQ

Yes, our LED lights are designed with dual voltage capability, meaning they can operate seamlessly on both 12V and 24V systems. This makes them versatile and suitable for a wide range of vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, emergency vehicles, and more.

Our LED lights are built to last, constructed with high-quality, weather-resistant materials that ensure they perform reliably in extreme temperatures, heavy rain, and other challenging environmental conditions. They are specifically designed to withstand the demands of tough operating environments.

No, our LED lights are engineered for energy efficiency. Despite their powerful output, they are designed to minimize power consumption, reducing the load on your vehicle’s electrical system while providing consistent, high-intensity illumination.

Our LED lighting products are designed for easy installation. They come with all necessary hardware and clear instructions, allowing for a straightforward setup process. Additionally, they require minimal maintenance, ensuring long-lasting performance with little effort.

Our LED lights are versatile and can be used on both personal and commercial vehicles. Whether you need them for emergency response, construction, or even personal safety on the road, they are designed to meet a variety of needs with high performance and reliability.

Yes, our LED lights are fully compliant with international regulations, including SAE J845 Class 1 and ECE R65 standards. We ensure that our products meet the highest safety and performance requirements, making them suitable for use in a wide range of industries and environments worldwide.

SAE Class 1 Warning Lights SAE Class 1 Warning Lights are most often used for emergency response vehicles such as police, fire and ambulance. Lights in this class have a candela value greater than 8100, with some reaching close to 18,000 cd-s/m when used to clear traffic in emergencies. SAE Class 1 lights are 4 times more intense than SAE Class 2 lights and 10 times more intense than SAE Class 3 lights. 

SAE Class 2 Warning Lights SAE Class 2 Warning Lights are commonly used on utility and service vehicles moving at or below the speed of traffic. Candela values in this class range from 1981 cd to 8099 cd-s/m. Vehicles that are slow-moving or blocking traffic typically have warning lights with a candela value close to 4,500. SAE Class 2 lights are approximately 2.5 times as bright as SAE Class 3 lights.

SAE Class 3 Warning Lights Because SAE Class 3 Warning Lights have the lowest light intensity of the three SAE classes, they are typically used inside of buildings where there is little or no ambient sunlight. Class 3 warning lamps may be used on forklifts, specialized machinery, or for an attention-grabbing effect at trade shows and indoor events. 

This mark is a self-certification, rather than a test mark and confirms that the product meets the requirements of the applicable EC directives and regulations. The mark may be placed on the product itself or anywhere on the packaging to indicate conformance. All of our products carry CE markings.

These marks confirm that the lamp has been tested against ECE Regulations and complies. The first mark shows the lamp has been tested and complies to the rules on electro-magnetic compatibility.  These tests used to be carried out against either EC Directive 2004/104/EC or 2006/28/EC but now are only covered by ECE Regulation 10. All warning lights along with other vehicle electrical equipment require it, else it could invalidate your insurance and MOT. This is through the Road Vehicle (Construction & Use) Regulations and is enforceable by the DVSA. The second mark (round) shows that the lamp meets the requirements of ECE Regulation 65. These exacting tests cover the flash rate, flash intensity and dispersion as well as the reliability and water resistance of the product. For more technical information on this certification, contact us. All vehicles working on the highway that need to conform to ‘Chapter 8’ must carry at least two beacons, or a lightbar with two sources of light that are approved to ECE Regulation 65. The majority of our warning products are R65 approved!
