The next generation of LED beacons

Hella’s K-LED Rebelution is a game changer in the warning lights sector. It emits a 360 degree yellow warning light from a flat and shallow domeless design, making the K-LED Rebelution a high-visibility yet low-profile vehicle beacon. The LED technology, materials, and design ensure durability and reliability, even in continuous operation. Find a distributor at hella.co.nz. See chicanetools.co.nz for stockists and pricing.

Go trilobular

The trilobular shape of Narva’s new AeroTech LED strobe lights is more aerodynamic, and also increases the visible surface area. Add the power of LEDs, and AeroTech warning lamps are up to six times brighter than the required SAE standard. The light but durable polycarbonate lenses and bases are sealed from water and dust (IP67), and solid state circuitry means no moving parts, enabling a seven-year warranty. They operate on voltages from 10-33V and have three power outputs — 36, 45, and 90 watts. Flashing can be synchronised for up to six units. For more information, see www.griffithsequipment.co.nz.
