There are a number of uses for LED light bars and these can most typically be seen on the roof of emergency vehicles such as those used by the police or fire department. However this is not their only use and they can be placed on private vehicles such as tow trucks to indicate to other road users a potential hazard or wide load. These types of lights are typically used as a warning and are set to flash to enhance the warning.
In smaller format LED light bars can also be used for applications such as shelf lighting, interior lighting for cabinets or even installed in steps as guide lighting. In these cases they are not set to flash and are used as accent lighting to enhance the look of an area.
All these applications make them a useful product and there are a number of companies that sell this type of product. Some of the manufacturers that make LED light bars for vehicles include Best Warning Lights, Fleet Safety and Whacker Technologies. These companies produce roof mounted lights which come in a range of sizes from mini to full size. Typically costs for the full size lights can be upwards of $1,000 with an example of this being the Whelen Freedom Light Bar from Fleet Safety which retails for around $3,500.
