Smaller LED headlamp introduced

Truck-Lite is adding  a new lamp to its LED headlamp line, which already includes a 7-in. round DOT  approved lamp. The new 5 in. x 7 in. LED headlamp was designed to utilize  cutting-edge 2
  LED arrays and complex reflector, creating a smooth, even  light output and clean streamlined appearance, the company said.

According to Truck-Lite, the new lamp meets and exceeds  FMVSS-108 and CMVSS-108 DOT requirements for both low and high beam  performance. The lamp works with both 12V and 24V systems and provides light  “far closer to the actual color temperature of natural sunlight (6,000K) than  conventional incandescent or halogen lamps,” the company said.

“We are a one-stop lighting manufacturer that can offer you  quality LED applications from the front of the truck to the rear of the  trailer,” said John Howells, vice president of sales. “Our existing as well as  new headlamp offering really speaks to high performance, durability and  increased visibility for forward lighting applications. Offering longer life  than comparable incandescent lamps, these LED headlamp products are worth the  upfront investment, saving the time and expense of replacing lamps multiple  times.”

All Truck-Lite LED headlamps feature a solid-state,  bulb-free system that is impervious to damage caused by shock and vibration  while a military grade, die-cast aluminum housing and non-yellowing  polycarbonate lens offer protection against damage from impact, roadside debris  and other hazards.
