Continental announced that the NightViu premium line of professional driving and working lights will be made available to consumer markets, including off-road enthusiasts, recreational vehicles (RVs) and marine.
Originally designed for use on construction, mining and off-highway equipment, “the NightViu lighting line provides a level of rugged design, durability and performance not normally seen in consumer-lighting products,” according to Continental.
Built to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration, dust and moisture, NightViu lights feature advanced LED technology that provides excellent lighting performance and exceptional energy efficiency, according to the company.
NightViu driving lights provide a focused beam of light for long-distance illumination. They’re ideal for applications such as desert/rally racing or any activity where maximum beam distance is required, Continental noted.
NightViu working lights provide beams that are shorter but wider. This makes them suitable for applications such as rock crawling, lighting up pickup beds and sport fishing boats.
“The NightViu line was created for some of the toughest applications you can imagine including mining, construction and agriculture,” said Edwin Betancourt Jr., product manager, Continental. “Some might consider them over-engineered for consumer applications, but we believe there are folks out there who simply want the best they can get for their lighting. That’s why we’ve decided to make NightViu available for off-road enthusiasts, RV owners, and others who want a professional level light source for their off-road activities. These lights can be used for ATVs, UTVs and SUVs, as well as Jeeps, snowmobiles, work trucks and even riding lawnmowers and go-karts. The build quality and housing seals make them suitable for marine applications as well including blue-water cruising and fishing.”
NightViu working lights are available in a choice of ultra-wide, wide, flood and spot beam patterns.
Each of the beam patterns is offered in a choice of 1,500, 2,500, 3,500 and 4,500 lumen performance for a total of 16 lights in the NightViu range of working lights.
NightViu driving lights are available in a variety of designs and configurations including five light bars, three multifunctional lights and two reversing lights. They provide up to 5,500 lumens and a beam field length of up to 440 meters. The lights feature free-form curved reflectors that direct the light beam exactly where it’s needed.
NightViu Lights are built to withstand temperatures ranging from minus 40 F to 194 F and are rated IP68 for ingress protection (IP) from dust and water. They produce approximately 100 lumens per watt and have been designed to ensure that they do not create electrical interference that could affect the vehicles existing electronics.
