Optronics International, a manufacturer and supplier of heavy-duty LED vehicle lighting, has announced the release of its new 2016 lighting products catalog. The redesigned catalog features 400 new products and more than 3,400 total SKUs. The entire 308-page document also is available on the Optronics website as an interactive, searchable PDF.
The company also announced an expansion of its unique no-hassle, one-diode warranty policy that will now cover all LED lamps being sold by Optronics, including all LED headlamps, LED work lamps and its Panelite Millennium Series. The warranty guarantees that if even one diode fails during the course of a lamp’s operation, Optronics will replace that lamp with a new one.
Since its last product catalog was released in 2014, Optronics reports that it has been prolific with its introduction of new and innovative LED products. Among the company’s new offerings are the innovative, LampLock LED anti-theft stop, tail, turn and marker/clearance lamps; ONE LED single-diode line, high-style GloLight line; Fusion LED combination tail and backup lamps and Opti-Brite work lamps.
Optronics added that it continues to meet the needs of its industry with products like its LampLock LED stop, tail, turn and marker/clearance lamps, which are easy to install and impossible to steal, the company states. LampLock was inspired by the Lighting Theft and Avoidance Task Force of the Intermodal Association of North America (IANA), formed to address member concerns about the costs associated with lamp replacement, repairs, vehicle downtime and related CSA violations.
The catalog also includes 63 products within Optronics’ ONE LED single-diode line, including new tail, backup and RV lamp applications. Optronics’ ONE LED lamps cost just twice the price of inexpensive incandescent lamps, but provide the equivalent of 50 times the service life.
“Optronics continues to set the pace for innovation, diversity and choice within the vehicle lighting industry, and the marketplace is responding,” said Brett Johnson, president and CEO of Optronics International. “The new products we’ve introduced in just the past three years now represent 20 percent of our overall sales.”
In the 2016 catalog, Optronics also highlights expansions within a number of well-established product lines. The GloLight line features 10 new products, including an E-rated oval mid-ship turn and intermediate marker lamp. Unique GloLight pedestal lamps also are part of the standard lighting equipment package on the Kenworth Icon 900.
In addition, Optronics has expanded its line of Fusion LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamps. The original nine-inch oval combo lamp, introduced in 2014, is now available in four-inch round and six-inch oval formats and with grommet- and flange-mount models that will fit virtually any standard lighting application.
New white LED lighting products are also represented in abundance in the new catalog, the company says. Optronics broadened its price-competitive Opti-Brite work lamp line by eight products, including a new super-bright miniature work lamp. Twenty-nine other new white LED products ran the gambit across interior/exterior area lighting, as well as back-up and license plate lamps.
“The expansion of our no-hassle single-diode warranty policy significantly increases the value of every LED lighting product in our new catalog,” said Marcus Hester, vice president of sales and marketing for Optronics International. “There is not a better lighting company nor a better lighting value in the vehicle lighting marketplace.”
The new catalog is scheduled to begin shipping on or about Jan. 20, and is available now as an interactive, searchable PDF on the company’s website.
