subject: Led Police Lights With Temporary And Permanent Mounting Options [print this page] There are several different types of LED police lights which are being used these days. They vary based on their dimensions. They also vary based on whether they can be mounted on a temporary or permanent basis. Then there are lights which vary based on the use of colored optics for special effects. A good example of high utility LED police light equipment is the dual reflector model that can produce flashes at an impressive rate of 130 fpm. The mid-sized beacons can easily be mounted on any kind of vehicle both temporarily as well as permanently which is why they are also preferred for rescue vehicles. The beacons which are easy to install and uninstall come with parabolic reflectors.
The combination of a high rotating speed of over 60 RPM and a high flashing rate of over 120 FPM makes these LED police lights supremely effective. They come with non-corroding bases usually made of black polycarbonate. A permanent flat surface mounting and a 1 inch NPT pipe mounting are couple of options that are provided with this kind of an LED police light. Apart from their own small size, even their mounting can be easily concealed making them a good choice for unmarked vehicles. Some of these police lights come with domes that are made of high impact resistant polycarbonate and are sealed to the base for keeping them moisture resistant as well. Some police lights boast of an impressive motor assembly that includes double roller ball bearings that can offer great reliability.
The warranty on these LED police lights varies from 2 years to 5 years and may include servicing and maintenance. The lights are capable of blasting out great intensity which could also be controlled when bright intensity lighting isn't required. You can choose between police lights with tall or wide profiles for different uses. Apart from the mounting flexibility, the LED police light also boast of an O-ring gasket which provides weather resistance to the lights. The parabolic reflectors and domes covering the LEDs drastically increase the wide angle coverage of the lighting making the warning signal far more efficient. The police lights are compact and lightweight making it easy for them to be mounted using magnets.
Both the double and single reflector models come with an additional magnetic mounting kit. In spite of their small size a high performance LED police light can provide a beam candlepower of over 60,000. Weighing less than 5lbs they are highly portable and don't usually see more than 5 amperes of current in the circuit. There are other types of versatile LED police lights as well such as the dash, deck and bar lights. There are smaller compartment lights which can be surface mounted without any body cutouts required on the vehicle. Slimmer police light heads are used often these days as they are not only easy to carry but also because their narrow profile can snugly fit into corners where bulky lights cannot be installed or concealed easily.
