subject: Strobe Led Lights And Accessories That Come With Them [print this page] Strobe LED lights are extremely powerful standalone emergency warning lights that can be used in two different ways. These lights can be mounted on the surface of the vehicles as strobe beacons which can be either mounted permanently or have gyratory capabilities for sending the warning signals and flashes in all directions. There are also unidirectional strobe units which are available in the form of strobe tubes in various colors. These can be mounted inside 1 inch or sometimes even 0.75 inch holes made in composite head lamps and tail lights for greater lighting and enhanced visibility through flash patterns and sequences. The strobe kit includes a wide variety of accessories that ensure that you have all the items you need to rely on the strobes during critical situations.
While there are 4-inch circular strobe LED lights with a split array arrangement of 1 Watt LEDs, you will also come across the hideaway lights which are quite small compared to other emergency lighting varieties. These lights prove to be extremely useful when unmarked vehicles are on covert missions and need a warning light source that is easily concealable when not turned on. At the same time, the hideaway lights can provide high intensity lighting in any color of your choice. Whether you need pure blasts of lighting with maximized output or flashing sequences that can make the warning signal even more visible, from a distance, you will be satisfied with the LED strobes. The strobe kit includes various mounting options, fixed and temporary along with cables and power supplies.
A good strobe kit has 3 different types of power supplies from which you can take a pick. There are 40 W, 2 outlet, 60 Watt, 4 outlet and 90 Watt, 6 outlet power supplies to support different kinds of emergency lighting arrangements. The strobe LED lights are reliable because of the spare slide in lenses which can enhance the brightness of the lighting. Similarly, chrome plated, aluminum parabolic reflectors or entire reflector assemblies are used along with strobe lights to ensure that the lighting is as bright as possible and spreads across as far and wide as possible. Clear, replaceable polycarbonate lenses and spare strobe tubes are also available as part of the kit.
Modern strobe LED lights don't really need a wig wag or external flasher with built-in flash patterns taking care of the special effects. However, high quality switches for turning the power supply on and off and pattern selection switches are important. There are proper controls to modulate the rotation rate and flashing rate of gyratory strobe beacons which are also impressive for their off axis visibility. The strobe kit includes shielded power connectors which are water-resistant and hence quite useful when the strobes are mounted externally and are used in adverse weather conditions. Other interesting components include the pre-wired cable, which is 8 to 10 feet in length, the in-line power module and LED drivers. The polycarbonate lens is also UV stabilized for additional efficiency.
