Police dash lights are very handy for producing an effective warning signal without really occupying too much space. Normal dash light equipment is around 6 inches in length, 2 inches in depth and around 4.5 inches in height. These are extremely portable and can be temporarily mounted on several different vehicles depending upon where they are required. These dash lights vary in terms of the number of LEDs that they have. You could have as many as 48 5mm LEDs for a normal dash light. The number will go down for 10mm LEDs which are rated with higher power wattage. Similarly, a large number of LEDs can be accommodated if smaller LEDs are used.
Police dash lights make use of powerful Gen III LEDs which are small and yet highly effective because of their unidirectional lighting. The dash lights have a current draw as low as 0.5 Amperes and can be powered with a simple voltage of 12 – 24 V DC. The dash lights come with a 2 – 5 year no hassle warranty for service repairs, replacements, service and sometimes, spare parts too. The dash lights are useful in that they can be used with just a single colour of LEDs or LEDs of different colours depending upon the requirement. Some dash lights come with two individual sections with 2 arrays of 4 or 6 LEDs. Pairs of colours like red and blue, blue and amber or red and green are used in such scenarios.
A very important and fascinating feature often seen in police dash lights is their ability to be connected to other such dash and deck lights so that all of them could be made to flash in sync with each other to create an even more powerful warning signal. There is a sync harness which is usually provided to connect the light equipment. You can ensure that your dash, deck, visor and strobe light heads all flash in sync with each other. Generation IV LEDs used by dash and deck lights are ultra-bright but more importantly are energy efficient which is one of the strong points of LED dash and deck lights.
The good thing about police dash lights is that they are light weight and can be mounted easily with L brackets or double stack flange brackets which are usually available with the kit. The clear lenses are undetectable while the lights are not turned on. There are suction cup mounting brackets too, which can double up for permanent mounting. Some dash lights can be mounted in either direction providing greater flexibility. The kit also includes loop pads, adhesive hooks and flashback shield. The shield helps in keeping the flash away from those inside the vehicle. Dash lights come with a simple cigar plug adapter and can be operated very easily. Dash lights can provide solid steady lighting if required but the ability to provide split lighting in bright flashes is what makes them so effective, especially when the lights have a split array arrangement.
