Long Range LED Auxiliary lighting


These new Lights have just been released... They are not even on our site yet!

Long Range LED lights. LED's have long been known to be very bright but not to really give much as far as distance.

That changed last year with our new PENETRATOR series Led Light bars.

The new Long-Range out perform that mark greatly :face-icon-small-sho
This light has now won many Motorcycle races and have proved to be extremely reliable.

Now we are introducing the CYCLOPS OPTIMUS LONG RANGE LIGHTING in a 10 deg. beam they are good for 660 ft of true useable light with only a 10 watt power draw.

That is less than TWO amps for two lights!... Run them off the FUSED connector in your Polaris PRO-RIDE Accessory power wire and keep the safety of the factory installed fuse!

I am very impressed with these small 3 inch lights in quality and performance...

Truly an evolution of our LED lighting technology and available to the public.

I have not seen any LED light even come close to the distance these can throw light.

They are available in 10 and 20 degree beams with 40 deg coming in a few months.

For now, Black is the only available color but grey,white and chrome are coming soon.(additional cost for chrome)

This is by far the longest throw, lowest power usage Light available.

Don't be fooled with Lumen claims.. Lumen ratings really mean nothing in real world performance.

Lifetime warranty:bounce:

I can set you up now with a PM or phone call.

  • Only 3.5" Tall (about the same size as a typical "post-it" sticky-note)
  • 693' of Usable Light from 10-watt LED
  • Proprietary IRIS Reflector Technology
  • Prime Drive Technology Thermal Management
  • Dimming Capabilities
  • Narrow, Wide, and Flood Beams
  • IP-68 Waterproof
  • Single is 620 grams
  • Double is 1100 grams. (for ref. a pound is 454 gr)


    Note on weight: If a high performance LED does not have a bit of weight to it there will be an issue.
    1) Performance LED lights create a lot of heat.
    2) If a light does not have enough heat sink material (copper) it will eventually over heat and have thermal breakdown.
    This is very common with many low priced LED lights

Pricing:

Long Range Single - $139
Long Range Single KIT (2ea lights w/Wiring Harness) - $259

Long Range Dual - $239
Long Range Dual KIT (2ea lights w/Wiring Harness) - $459

So how do these compare to the solstice hid?I was planning on buying the battery powered hid this yr


They put out almost the same amount of light, the LR LED will not be a helmet mount. The Solstice is still King in helmet mounted lights.
Thanks for asking.

New photos

You say you need better light on your sled, truck or Adv Bike??

Here the markers are at 100 ft intervals. the trees are 350 ft...

Remember only a 10 watt draw!

All L.E.D.'s are not equal.

Good bye HID's

I think we need a bigger field. LOL.

The heck with putting them on my sled, I think they would work awesome on my combine!!!!! A few 40* lights for shining close and a double narrow beam for long distance. Or my tractor too. And not too horrible of a price either.

So, Pro guys, whats the weight savings here? :)

I wouldn't mind something like this to replace the stockers and open that area up for venting purposes.

Just not sure what kinda of mounting options are available once headlight is removed..

I'd prefer to mount it in the same location as the stock, vent/mesh the stock hole, and just hang this single LED behind the mesh/screen/vent. It should still provide plenty of visability and get you around at night for any trail/road riding I'd suspect?

The single is 1.37 lbs.
The stock must be a good 5-7 lbs?
~4 lbs loss? Better cooling.

Are these sleds finicky about electrical load like the older ones were? I haven't removed headlights from a 2 stroke in a while...

I'm not sure what the factory lights setup weighs on the pro?
I can tell you the Long range lights are far more distance than the stock lights or even stock cans with HIDs. I would recommend the 20 deg for a single light setup.
since the light only pulls 10 watts dc they can be ran from the DC aux plug

know anything about hooking up to an older sled? AC only???? Will the work?

All LEDs or HID lights will require dc power.
we do have other good LEds lights that will run from half wave rectified power and I can set you up with the rectifier and easy instructions on using your stock ac to power the NXG LED
The Long Range or Penetrator LEDs will not run from the mentioned rectifier.
:sorry:

This prob a stupid question, but I run headlight delete (for venting), can I just wire one of these(I'd only run single LED) into the high beam plug? That way when sled is on low beam light is off. I'd only want it on for that brief ride out. Would it be kosher on the electrical system? Thx guys

Not a stupid Q at all..
Unfortunately not.. DC power is required for any LED light.
you could easily tap into the dc power plug and wire that to a handle bar mounted switch.The long range LED requires very stable full wave DC power.
You can use one or two of the NXG LEDs and run a rectifier using the stock wiring system.

I should've added I run a turbo (w/ AFR gauge & oil pump) , so DC power is being used for oil pump, ACC power bring use for AFR. No headlights & no electric start.

Phatboy...

Regardless of what the turbo builder has told you.... I HIGHLY recommend Against using the red/yellow with a larger fuse (Acc pwr) red/white (DC TEST power, inapproprately labled "DC PWR" ) for ANYTHING but very low draw items.

Do not run anything into the "DC PWR" . This is a DC TEST port... unfused and also powers up vital components like the ECU etc...

I would recommend going with the twin light setup if you can. LED lights are very powerful but their downside is that the light is mainly projected totally forward with less peripheral light which is important to me when I'm out in the backcountry. These look like really good lights and I appreciate the 2 photos that were posted.

How would you go about mounting one of these up if you wanted to have it in addition to the stock lighting?

These look similar to the Rigid Industries lights that I have on my rock crawler. If they are anything like the RI lights, they are awesome and you won't be disappointed.

Is there anyone that has some succes with mounting LED lights from the DC plug in the headlight harness on the PRO-RMK.

I have done that install and the lights work but they are far away as bright as they should be.

so i guess there is some issues with the power, they are on 0,83 amps each witch is 1,66 combined and there is a 2 amp fuse on that DC plug.

Any suggestions?
