ARB HAS TAKEN NOTE OF ALL LESSONS LEARNED FROM ITS ORIGINAL INTENSITY LED LIGHT RANGE, TO COME UP WITH THE UPGRADED AND VERY CLEVER INTENSITY SOLIS.

SMART LIGHTS

WHETHER you’re a ‘fresh out the gate’ 4x4 beginner or an experienced overlander, when listing your modification wish list one of the initial items is usually the brightest auxiliary lighting you can bolt on. Let’s face it, the OEM lighting offered by vehicle manufacturers today is a little on the underwhelming side, given the speeds achievable by both 4x4s and our intrepid Australian fauna. Being able to cast your vision well ahead can mean the difference between getting to your after-dark destination, or wearing Sonny’s best mate deep into the grille.

ARB has more than 45 years of experience manufacturing 4x4 quipment under its belt, and after releasing the original Intensity LED light range, listened to customer feedback to develop lights with better design and operation. The ability to alter the output of the lights rated highly with customers, but why would you want to bring down the punch of your spotties?

Well, some of that feedback ARB received were that its lights were just too bright when encountering reflective road signs. The bounce-back in some cases blinding the driver, completely defeating the purpose of the spotties in the first place. Sure you could take the spotlights offline, but the real-time return of the driver’s night vision wouldn’t be ideal.
