Straight LED light bars almost exclusively project light forward, featuring a flat lens and straight housing. Alternatively, curved LED light bars often feature a wider beam due to their convex, curved housing and lens.

Aside from output, these profiles also offer different aesthetics. Straight LED light bars complement angular platforms with flat front ends, like a Jeep® Wrangler or Ford Bronco—alternatively, curved light bars best fit sweeping curves.

Modular: Offering exceptional output and unforgettable styling, modular LED bars chain together several smaller independent lights, allowing you to customize dimensions, output, and more.

Fog: Similar to flood beams, though positioned lower and angled toward the road. Fog beams help cut through fog, rain, and other inclement weather.

Flood: Projects a wide, diffused beam of light short distances. Flood beams are ideal for wide, up-close viewing, frequently employed as ditch lights to illuminate the sides of a trail.

So, what about beam patterns? LED light bars come in several, which directly impact light output. The most common beam patterns include:

LED chips offer some of the most efficient light output on the market, producing loads of light while drawing minimal power from your vehicle’s electrical system. LED light bars capitalize on this technology, stringing multiple LED chips in a single, compact housing. The resulting light bar significantly outperforms halogens and other incandescent bulbs—all while using approximately 80 percent less energy.

Spot: Projects a precise, focused beam of light long distances. Spot beams are ideal for long-distance viewing, though they offer little illumination of the immediate surroundings.

LED light bars come in several shapes and sizes, offering different aesthetics and characteristics. Which is right for you?

Driving: Similar to a flood beam, though with a sharper cutoff. Driving beams are ideal for use as auxiliary driving lights.

Double-row LED light bars offer potent performance and a slightly taller profile than their single-row counterparts. They feature double-stacked LED chips for double the output. Where space permits, double-row LED light bars are a significant upgrade over most single-row options.

Modular light bars string several smaller LED pods into a single light source. With robust brackets and linked harnesses, modular bars operate as a single light while allowing far more customization than other light bar styles.

Single Row: Slim, bright, and highly efficient, single-row LED bars feature a single row of LED chips in a high-output reflector housing.

Single-row LED light bars feature an ultra-compact design, utilizing a single row of LED chips. This slim housing lends itself to installation in tight places, like bumper cutouts and behind grilles.

Combo: Balances spot and floor patterns, projecting moderately far and wide. While combo beams cover more surface area, they offer less width than flood and less distance than spot beams.

Double Row: Offering potent performance with a slightly taller profile, double-row LED bars feature two layered rows of LED chips in a high-output reflector housing.
