Vinh (the crazy flashlight guru) wanted something different---something crazy---he got it, and now you can have one too! 28x XHP35 HI LEDs underneath LEDIL 10 degree optics gives you a ton of output with a good mid-range beam with a smooth transition. If you want a mid-range cool/neutral monster, this light is the hot ticket. Approximately 15% more output than the standard 18" LITEbar.

FAQ:

Q: What makes the V54 Special Edition light bar different than the normal 18" MTN LITEbar?
There are two primary differences between the standard 18" bar the V54 Special Edition:

1. LEDs: The standard bars use Nichia 219C 5000K LEDs, while the V54 Edition uses XHP35 HI LEDs. The XHP35 LEDs are capable of a bit more output, but they are also much more expensive. You gain around 15% more lumens and 10% more spot intensity than the standard version (which is already more than twice as much as any other 18" bar has).

2. Optics: The V54 Edition uses LEDIL TIR 10 degree spot optics instead of the combination smooth/orange-peel reflectors that are used in the other lights. The hotspot is a little bigger on the V54 edition, with a little less spill width. Overall, the beams are fairly similar, but the standard bar gives you a little smaller spot and a bit wider spill.

Because this is a build-to-order light that we do not normally stock, it will take 2-5 business days for us to build and test this light before shipment.

FAQ:

What is involved in installation? What tools do I need? Beyond custom brackets, pretty much everything else you need to install the LITEbar is included. You need some common tools, like wrenches and a drill. Please see the Owner's Manual PDF for more information.
How do I know what length extension cable to order? To measure the length of extension cord you will need (or if you need an extension cord at all),
Figure out where you will place your converter, then figure out where you will mount it. The Owner's Manual may be helpful in deciding which location would be best.
Figure out the route that your cable will have to take from the converter to the LITEbar.
Using a wire or string, trace the route of the cable.
Measure the length of the wire/string, then subtract 18". Most converter & LITEbar assemblies have ~18"-24" of combined cable already installed, so if your run is 18" or less you will not need an extension cable.
Select the appropriate cable length (length of run minus 18").
