For the high mileage or professional driver, who requires fewer bulb replacements, the Ring Long Life range offers the ideal solution with bulbs lasting typically up to three times that of a standard bulb, at a competitive price.

Vehicles that are driven off road or on poor roads would see a reduction in bulb replacement by switching to Ring’s Long Life range. A reinforced filament and special gas formulations help the bulb to resist the effects of vibration and shock, as might be felt driving over a pot hole.
