    Truck-Lite recently added heated 5-inch-by-7-inch rectangular LED headlights to its LED forward lighting product line.

    The company, which specializes in LED lighting, telematics, engine protection, and safety and visibility systems, claims it introduced the world’s first LED headlight with the launch of its 7-inch round version in 2014. This technology was modified and improved for the new headlight’s rectangular footprint.

    Like its round counterpart, the new 5x7 heated headlight consistently warms the lens when temperatures dip below 50°F/10°C, Truck-Lite said.

    “After years of popular demand, Truck-Lite is pleased to offer our 5x7 headlight with a heated lens,” said John Hoover, vice president of aftermarket sales for Truck-Lite. “This latest advancement rounds out our forward lighting portfolio and allows this technology to reach a broader customer base.”

    The heated 5x7 LED headlights are available under the part number 27455C and as part of a snowplow kit, part number 80985. The 27455C is constructed of military-grade, die-cast aluminum with a non-yellowing, polycarbonate lens to protect against damage from impact, roadside debris and other hazards, and comes equipped with Truck-Lite’s three-year limited warranty.
