Truck-Lite鈥檚 custom LED forward lighting headlamps offer improved driver visibility through its more natural light spectrum, leading to improved object recognition at night. Truck-Lite鈥檚 LED beam pattern also reduces eye-strain for drivers and reduces harsh headlight glare to oncoming traffic. An additional benefit is a significant reduction in amperage draw on the vehicle鈥檚 electrical system, freeing up power for other uses and resulting in a 50-times longer lighting system life than conventional halogen technology.
