subject: Bar Led Lights With Built In Strobes And Traffic Advisors [print this page] There is a reason why bar lights are so popular especially amongst those who operate emergency vehicles. The bar LED lights are so useful because they can be altered or configured to suit the exact nature of the requirements. For example, the length itself of these light bars can reach drastic extremes to fit the requirement perfectly. There are mini bars which are as small as 16 inches and slimmer than 2 inches to be mounted internally or externally on smaller cop vehicles, highway patrol cars and volunteer vehicles for rescue missions. On the other end of the spectrum, there are gigantic light bars which are more than 72 to 80 inches in length, 12 inches in width and around 3 inches in height that are used on bigger vehicles like heavy construction equipment carriers, personnel carriers, inflammatory material carriers, towing vehicles and fire engines.
The bar lights can come with any of a dozen features which have been developed to make them more effective. The most advanced bar LED lights have almost all these features, although they are far more expensive than the ordinary emergency vehicle lighting fixtures. For example, some light bars come with impressive traffic advisor panels, where the LEDs on the light bar will flash only like a directional arrow pointing in one way or the other. These arrows flashing in red, amber or green colors can prove to be extremely useful during chaotic traffic situations where the vehicles have to be redirected before a chain collision gets initiated.
The bar lights with traffic advisors are capable of getting the attention of motorists from a long distance giving them sufficient warning and advance notice for them to react. In fact, this is one of the biggest strengths of the bar LED lighting equipment which warrants their use in emergency vehicles that have to flash a cautionary or warning signal. Such emergency lights prove to be useful to alert approaching vehicles of wreckage, a highway repair site, construction site or of the movement of a fleet of heavy vehicles or vehicles carrying inflammatory substances like petrol. In areas, prone to forest fires, landslides, oil spillage or other such disasters, these emergency lights prove to be very useful to warn the motorists in all directions.
The bar LED lights also come with built in light heads that provide various functionalities. For example, full-fledged 72 inch light bars have alley lights, work lamps, takedowns, corner strobes and highly powerful LED modules all capable of being controlled independently or synchronously depending upon the need of the hour. The strobes in particular prove to be very important in bar lights given their capability to throw steady bright light that can go a very long distance. Moreover, these lights are also capable of flashing brightly at high rates to enhance the visibility of the lighting further. Gyratory strobes mounted on bigger light bars provide high utility with their ability to flash a powerful warning signal in all the 4 directions.
