LED Emergency Lights – what all emergency vehicles need
Firefighters, EMT and police all need some form of emergency lighting on their vehicles. LED emergency lights are now becoming the most popular choice for a number of reasons.
LED lights are not a recent invention, but you would be forgiven for thinking they are as they were not in any kind of common use until recently. LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, and they were invented in the 1920’s in Russia by a radio technician called Oleg Vladimirovich Losey (although there is some controversy over this). An LED light is a semi-conductor device that converts electricity to light by using the movement of electrons. I don’t know about you but that sounds very high tech to me. LED emergency lights are now the lights of choice for emergency vehicles.
LED emergency lights are popular now for several reasons. LED lights are cheap to run, they give relatively low drain on a vehicles battery, which is crucial to emergency vehicles. LED lights are very bright. New generations of lights are being produced all of the time, which gives very high visibility. LED emergency lights are virtually maintenance free and the units themselves can be made to be low profile, thereby reducing drag on a vehicle and making fuel go further. LED emergency lights are now the most common form of lighting on police, fire and medical vehicles.
LED lighting does not have any mercury or other toxins. They don’t emit ultra violet light, which means they don’t attract bugs. LED emergency lights don’t generate heat, and this makes the units cool to touch. Another benefit of emergency LED lights is they don’t generate radio frequency waves. So that means they don’t interfere with radio or TV broadcasts. LED emergency lights are very resistant to shocks and vibration, making them ideal for emergency vehicles and construction vehicles. In other words, LED lighting is the lighting of the future in our world now.
The main thing emergency vehicles and the personnel in them need is high visibility. LED emergency lights are super bright, come in various colors and flash patterns, so they are ideally suited for any emergency vehicle. All emergency vehicles need an audible warning system and a visible warning system. The siren and the LED emergency lights fulfill these requirements and you will find at least one of each on any emergency vehicle. Emergency vehicles depending on what they are, need different types of lighting, for instance a police cruiser may need a takedown light, alley lights and traffic advisors.
Whatever the requirements for LED emergency lights there will be suppliers out there that can deliver what you need. Checking online is the perfect way to start your search for your LED emergency lights. It’s always worth comparing prices for such items as they can vary widely in price. Cheap units are not always the bargain they seem, as some suppliers will have bought sub-standard imports, which will be unreliable and of poor build quality. Shop wisely and your emergency lighting needs will be met.
