Great White LED Light Bars

Taking a bite out of the LED Light Bar Market

Great Whites LED Driving Lights launched in March, receiving intense interest from OE manufacturers and Auto Electricians servicing Truck Drivers and Owners, 4×4 Enthusiasts, and more!

Various bull bar manufacturers are keen to start designing around the Great Whites Bar Driving Lights as their flexibility allows them the unique benefit of being able to be mounted at any angle. “The fact that these lights can be mounted vertically on bull bars opens up the opportunities available for truck & 4×4 drivers. No longer are they restricted to round lights placed in front of their radiator grills restricting air flow, they can now place their lights almost anywhere they please” explained Shayne Quaile, Marketing Manager.

“Due to the proliferation of LED work light bars being sold as driving lights, it’s created the perception that LED technology provides very little throw in comparison to HID & Halogen. We can’t stress enough that Great Whites are dedicated LED Driving Lights. This means that they’ve been designed specifically to be driving lights and not work lights.”

Steve Mitchell, Category Manager explains further “When we designed the Great Whites, we wanted to have mass volumes of light from the bumper bar to 400 metres down the road. This is the crucial distance where decisions need to be made to avoid potential hazards.

The perception has always been that driving lights need to throw light as far down the road as they can in order to be of most benefit to the driver. In order to gain this sought after distance effectively, light is concentrated and contained to a single pencil beam, as a result sacrificing the spread of light.

At one lux (the same brightness as a single candle) at 1km, the average person would struggle to identify anything at that distance. When you consider that even a fully loaded (64 tonne) B-Double at 100kph requires 127.1 metres breaking distance to pull up, it’s that immediate 300 – 400 metres that is most relevant for the driver. The kangaroo 1km down the road can hop away well before it is a hindrance to the driver, but the kangaroo 200 metres from the vehicle could easily hop onto the path of that vehicle, necessitating in the driver’s quick response to a potentially fatal obstacle.“
