The
New X-Lite
|
- CNC
Billet Machined Aluminium Housing.
- Hardened
Clear Anodized corrosion resistant coating.
- Built
in lens hood to prevent light hitting bonnet and to protect
bulb from impacts.
- Clamp
directly to roll cage using off the shelf stainless clip.
- The
most effective and robust overhead lights available.
- Super
efficiency low power bulbs put less strain on your wiring /
battery.
- Ultra
Low Profile 60mm diameter face.

Lights
mounted above your head while driving illuminate more than you
can see over the crest of hills and into potholes enhancing off
road driving safety.
Traditionally designed overhead lights have a number of problems:
|
Regular
Overhead Lights
|
X-Eng
X-Lites
|
| The
aim of the lights is changed by wind resistance and impacts
with branches |
X-Lites
are very low profile, protruding as little as 10mm above your
cage. The light casings are exceptionally strong and the lights
are fully re-buildable using mostly off-the-shelf parts.
|
| Overhead
lights are often damaged by overhanging branches. |
| Larger
face lights increases aerodynamic drag using more fuel. |
| The
light shines on the bonnet and wings diminishing your night
vision and reducing the effectiveness of the lights. |
X-Lites
incorporate a 23mm 'hood' which stops light from shining on
the bonnet & wings. |
| Difficult
to fit to a roll cage without welding on brackets. |
X-Lites
attach to your roll cage with an off the shelf, adjustable,
stainless steel hose clip. Should you break one, you can pick
up a replacement from any hardware store for a few pence. |
| Bulbs
are expensive and reflectors or front glass lenses are impossible
to replace. Some lights use polycarbonate lenses & reflectors
which are very tough, but quickly become scratched. |
Bulb
and reflector are a single 'sealed' unit. When you change
a bulb, you replace the glass lens and reflector at the same
time. Yet, you can pick up a replacement bulb from a hardware
store for as little as £1.00. |
X-Lites
are only 60mm diameter and yet deliver more intense light in the
visual spectrum than the majority of commercial driving lights.
The bulbs are only 50w and yet will outshine most 100w and even
150w halogen lights.
How is this possible? The light is high temperature with most
of it's energy in the middle to top of your visual range where
your eyes are most sensitive. Most lights are biased toward the
red end of the spectrum and waste a lot of the light energy as
heat and infrared.
More efficient, lower power lights mean less strain on your wiring
and less drain on your battery - which you probably need for more
important things like winching!

We
have recessed the bulb, lens and reflector 23mm inside the body
of the light. This has a two fold advantage over traditional lights.
Firstly, the bulb is very well protected from branches and other
impacts. Secondly, and more importantly, it concentrates the light
in to a brighter cone and greatly reduces the amount which can
shine on the bonnet and wings.
The
less of the light is shining on your bonnet, the better your night
vision - further enhancing the efficiency of the X-Lite.

| Options |
|
X-Lites are available in two beam widths and two sizes for different
thicknesses of roll cage tube.
|
Spot
Best
suited to high speed driving where you need the maximum long distance
vision such as driving on motorways or across moorland.
|
|
Flood
Best in driving through tree cover and negotiating obstacles and
narrow lanes where Deer, foxes and BMW's are likely to leap out
into your path. |
We make two different sizes of enclosure to ensure a snug fit on
most types of cage.
46mm
Will clamp to tube up to and including 46 mm (1 3/4") in diameter
51mm
Will clamp to tube up to and including 51mm (2") in diameter
We reccommend you measure the thickness of your roll cage tube before
ordering. If you get it wrong, just send them back and we will supply
the other size for just the cost of the postage.

LOOK!
We have just taken delivery of genuine Carling Switches (Like the
ones used for ARB lockers) with X-Lite labels!
 |
Carling
offer probably the best switches available for off-road use.
They are waterproof, use LED lighting and are damn tough!
We now stock a range of switches for everything in your vehicle
including Fans and Winches plus a range of mounting panels.
See the full range here.
The X-Lite switch is of the SPST On/Off type and comes complete
with the label shown |
