PRODUCT SHOWCASE ENGO RW Series Warn 650F gases to produce a brilliant, almost blue-white light that's about three times brighter than a halogen bulb emits. Because there is no filament, HID lights are less prone to vibration damage and last much longer (about 4,000 hours of continuous use) than standard or halogen bulbs. One pays two to three times more for these bulbs. HIGHTECH LED JW Speaker Fog These 4.5-inchround LED fog lights by JW Speaker are the ideal upgrade for any PAR35 lamp to ensure brighter, whiter, longer lasting light. Speaker's fog lights are street legal and DOT compliant. Delivering 500 lumens, the lamps have a UV-resistant hard-coated polycarbonate lens (clear or black) and are protected by a diecast aluminum housing. www.jwspeaker.com; (262) 251-6660 Lightforce 140 Lance It may be small, but the 75W 140 Lance from Lightforce can be a wise choice if you need a high-performance fog light in a compact package. Ideal as fog, winch, work or backup lights with special dispersion filters. Available singly or in pairs, each light is powered by a 12V, 75-watt Xenophot 4,000-hour bulb (at maximum wattage). www.lightforce.com; (877) 510-9204 LIGHTS: FOG The most recent technology, though, revolves around LED fog lights. Although the LED (light-emitting diode) was invented in 1927 and first used commercially in 1969 (mostly for calculators and wrist watches), it has only been over the past few years that they have finally come into their own for use in automotive lighting. A few years ago such lights were prohibitively expensive. Now the marketability of these long-lasting, brighter and cooler burning lights has resulted in the prices coming way down, making them competitive against HIDs. The key to the brightness and light output is the size and At 6.5-inches in diameter, the Warn W650F fog lights cut through the fog with 55W H3 halogen bulbs and a 70-degree amber beam. Features include thin-profile powder-coated steel cases with O-ring seals for excellent water resistance. Kit includes wireless control switch, mounting hardware, transmitter, wiring harness, rock guards, and covers. www.warn.com; (800) 543-9276 The 4-inch RW-Series 24W LED Work Light from Engo are available in either round or square design with power ranging from 18W to 27W each. They come in either a 60-degree flood (can be used for fog light) or a 15-degree spot pattern. The RW-Series, which produce a bright 6,000-6,500K light, are made of lightweight diecast aluminum with heat sink extrusion and polycarbonate lenses. One-year warranty. www.engousa.com.; (360) 573-0882 VisionX Quad LED When two fog lights aren't enough for your Chevy Silverado, bolt in VisionX's Silverado Quad Fogs, which feature 10-watt LED bulbs with 50,000-hour lifespan. Each of the four lights is individually adjustable to provide optimum coverage. The bolt-on direct-to-factory mounting kit provides triple the light output of factory lights. www.visionxusa.com; (800) 994-4460 propickupmag.com PROPICKUP 71 ProPickup_2013BB_Lights Fog.indd 71 8/6/13 10:16 AM
