Different Types of ATV/UTV Lights and their Implications
Lights are an integral part of your ATV/UTV’s performance capabilities. They are necessary for night time driving and even extreme weather conditions such as snow or sleet. Because your ATV/UTV requires the best lighting solutions for increased visibility, we will outline some of the options available in the market.
Sealed Beam Headlights:
These are like the standard factory installed lights, Available For both front and rear lighting. There are a variety of manufacturers that design aftermarket headlights to replace your factory ATV/UTV headlights. These lights maintain the classic ATV/UTV look and do not require additional wiring to install. This makes them a convenient and easy to install lighting option. While they are very cost effective, they are mostly suitable for highway driving, as their brightness and adaptability are limited.
Projector Beam Headlights:
Projector beams provide brighter lighting with wider coverage. This makes them ideal for the adventurous ATV/UTV rider. However, they require higher electric input than the sealed beam light. This presents a few challenges, including battery drain and the potential of short circuiting the electric system.
To overcome this challenge, most kits come with an upgrade for the battery or charging wiring system. This makes their installation slightly more invasive or complex compared to the sealed beam headlights. They also tend to overheat, which can cause damage to your ATV/UTV’s plastic components. Getting a kit that includes mounting brackets solves this issue. The lights can then be mounted on the bumper or luggage rack which can withstand the heat. Their brighter and wider beams at an affordable price more than compensate for these challenges.
LED ATV/UTV Lights
LED lights are the most popular aftermarket
ATV/UTV lights
replacement for several good reasons. LED lights provide an array of lighting possibilities as they can be arranged to create, wider, longer or more intense beams. Their light beams are generally brighter than any other lighting solutions. Additionally, they are efficient in energy consumption, using up only a fraction of the current that ordinary headlamps utilize. They can be mounted on different locations on the ATV to suit varying functions, terrain and weather conditions.
They are also very durable and both water and impact resistant. This makes them a great choice for off road ATV/UTV lighting options. LED lights do not emit excessive heat and are therefore friendly to your vehicle’s components. They are easy to install and can utilize existing wiring. They also require less space, leaving room for other accessories. Though they are more expensive than halogen or HID headlamps, they more than make up for this with lower maintenance costs and outstanding performance.
From the above, it is easy to assess each type of ATV/UTV light and its implications on your vehicle’s night time performance. Ask 4wheelonline.com about how to improve your safety and visibility with functional, durable and effective ATV/UTV lights from a range of world-class manufacturers.
