subject: Strobe Led Lights And The Value They Offer To Emergency Vehicles [print this page] The biggest service offered by strobe lights is their versatility which gives you plenty of options. Emergency vehicles need as much versatility as possible given that the requirements could be different in various situations. Given the criticality of the situations dealt with by emergency vehicles and their crew, these strobe LED lights come as a godsend, especially with the latest advancements in technology that further enhance their effectiveness. The strobes make use of strobe tubes in different colors giving you the option of flashing multi-colored beams in every direction possible. You can also go for LED strobes which make use of light emitting diodes for maximum effectiveness and energy efficiency. Given that LEDs are rated for an operational life in excess of 50,000 hours, such strobes can come highly handy during emergency missions.
The strobe lights can be used for flashing at high rates and for also providing bright intense lighting. There are hideaway strobe kits for example, where the strobes are compact, concealable and yet ideal for complementing the brightness of composite head and tail lights. The strobe LED lighting equipment sometimes includes wide angle domes encapsulating the 1W LEDs for brighter and wider coverage, while also making the strobes vibration, corrosion and moisture resistant. A combination of Fresnel domes and lenses can enhance the effectiveness of the strobes to a great extent. Clear as well as colored lenses can be used with the strobes, depending upon the requirement.
Strobe lights come with built in flash patterns so that there isn't any need for an external flasher at all. Moreover, the strobe LED lights can be effortlessly flipped from bright solid steady lighting mode to flashing mode as per your requirement. You can choose between the two options during emergencies with a flip of the switch. There are some full length, 60 or 72 inch light bars which have corner strobes too, in order to get maximum lighting in all directions. A very interesting aspect of these lights is that their orientation, height and angle can be varied. Standalone strobes can be used for providing narrow but intensely focused beams. Similarly, they can be made to flash in different colors if you need a high visibility warning signal during adverse conditions such as foggy surroundings.
You can also make use of strobe lights for smaller vehicles, mounting the strobes through 1 inch mounting holes in the front or rear end of the vehicle. There are strobe LED lights with domes that can be temporarily mounted on the roof of vehicles as beacons for 360-degree lighting. Strobes offer value because of their ability to provide solid and flashy lighting and that too at high rates in different colors. They also offer value through additional flexibility in the form of gyratory features which provide better visibility in all the directions. Multiple strobes can also be connected using a sync wire so that the flashing of the strobes can be synchronized to create a more visible and powerful warning signal.
