What are LED Light Bars?

An LED light bar is an auxiliary light that can be used for off-road, motor-cycle, truck, and ATV lighting. Pitted against some traditional forms of lighting like LED driving lights, light bars have a double or single row of LED lights and can accommodate anywhere between one to 48 LEDs. You can mount an LED light bar above the windscreen, on the bull bar, or anywhere else with a mounting bracket.

Why Are LED Light Bars Better?

1. New rectangular shape - new light bars have a rectangular shape compared to the older HID and halogen lights that use one globe in a round casing. This means that a single light can only do one thing properly, be it flood or spot lighting. Light bars, which use numerous small LEDs offer engineers more options during designing. It is possible to make a light bar that functions as a spotlight and flood light, which means fewer dark spots in the driver's field of vision.

2. Compactness -LED light bars are far more compact than their round counterparts, which means that they can fit into more spaces. For instance, you can install a light bar on the roof lines without altering the height of your vehicle in a significant way.

3. Durability - LED light bars are longer lasting than HID or halogen lights which use tungsten electrodes or glass bulbs. LEDs are resistant to shock and vibration, making them ideal for your off-roading experience.

Why You Need a High Quality LED Light Bar

A cheap light bar is vastly different from a high quality one. If you are looking at light bars, you should take the following into account:

1. Quality of materials - high quality light bars will have higher quality materials than their cheaper counterparts. Using high quality materials such as stainless steel screws and aluminum housing has numerous advantages: the bar will have high resistance to vibration and impact, it will also be pressure resistant and waterproof.

2. Genuine LED manufacturers - high quality light bar is made by genuine LED manufacturers who ensure a longer lifespan in addition to maximum light output. Cheaper light bars, on the other hand, use low quality LEDs, meaning you pay more in the end.

3. Reflectors are high quality light bars have good reflectors, which result in extended travel and even distribution of light. However, knockoff light bars are of inferior quality they have a shorter lifespan and poor beam pattern.
