GEAR GUIDE 50,000-HOUR-LIFE LED LAMP Grote's newest LED stop/tail/ turn lamp comes with an integrated flange, eliminating the need for additional mounting brackets. It has a 50,000-hour life, plus instant-on capability that alerts motorists faster in braking situations. Grote, grote.com, 800-628-0809. STAINLESS STEEL KITS RoadWorks Manufacturing produces stainless steel light kits for trucks and trailers. Many styles of LED lights are available in colored or clear lenses, including the Millennium series, and the company will customize kits to specific applications. RoadWorks Manufacturing, roadworksmfg.com, 800-448-8741. 8 REPLACEMENT HEADLAMPS The Wagner NightDefense replacement headlamp capsules feature a tricolor/trizone coating that disperses light in a bright beam and long pattern, the company says. It projects a white light straight ahead for a deeper view, as well as a horizontal beam pattern with yellow light for an easier view of signs and reduced glare from oncoming traffic. Wagner Lighting, federalmogul.com, 248-354-7700. PETERSON 701C LED Peterson's 701C 7-inch LED headlight replaces all standard PAR56 sealed beams. It exceeds DOT/FMVSS-108 requirements and SAE standards. Two high-output LED chips generate 1,100-1,650 lumens while consuming only 20-25 watts at 12.8V (17-22 watts at 28V). The color temperature closely mimics daylight, and the vacuum-metallized reflector provides a wide, even pattern. The lens is hard-coated polycarbonate. The light's standard H4 3-blade terminals are built into the cast housing, not wired as a separate pigtail. Peterson Manufacturing Co., pmlights.com, 770-433-2282. Lights.indd 8 TOMAHAWK HEADLIGHTS The 7-inch headlights have a snub-nose, billet aluminum housing with a traditional clamp ring and riveted pinch clamps and a curved convex lamp to offer a vintage look. They're available in bottom- or side-mounted options and in chrome, polished aluminum or any Headwinds finish. Headwinds, headwinds.com, 626-359-8044. 5/9/13 2:12 PM
