A new LED headlamp with advanced retroflective LED technology engineered to emit a wider, brighter beam for increased visibility and safety, has been introduced by Optronics International. The Opti-Brite LED Headlamps also have a centralized LED cluster that enhances the lamp’s appearance.
Optronics (www.optronicsinc.com) is a manufacturer and supplier of heavy duty LED vehicle lighting.
The new headlamps have a centralized lens element that houses rear-facing LEDs and a supplemental LED lamp array. The rear-oriented LEDs interact with precision-engineered metallic parabolic reflectors to create a beam pattern that “is ultra-bright, with broad, smooth photometric characteristics that approximate the color temperature of natural sunlight, improving visibility and reducing eye fatigue,” company officials say.
The design is called retroflective because the LEDs producing the headlamp beam face backward, while the advanced reflector geometry does all the work of projecting the beam forward.
UPGRADES
The headlamps are designed to allow users to easily upgrade their headlamps from standard halogen and HID sealed beam to a higher-performing, longer-lasting LED light source.
Engineered to accommodate both 12V and 24V electrical systems, the lamps use standard H4 three-blade connectors.
It takes minutes to convert any vehicle with compatible headlamps to the new LED technology, say the company officials. The lamps have an expected service life of 30,000 hours.
Like all LED products from Optronics, the new lamps come with its no-hassle, one-diode lifetime warranty protection that will replace the lamp if even one diode fails.
