  Here is a great article from International Fire Fighter Magazine.  http://iffmag.mdmpublishing.com/ Warning lights on emergency services vehicles provide an essential safety function by warning road users of a hazard ahead, along with the need to move out of the way giving priority to the emergency vehicle, allowing for a safe and rapid response to an incident.

In this post, I will be talking about lightbars suitable for emergency vehicles. These lightbars are constructed normally (depending on the length) with an aluminium extrusion which is fitted to the plastic parts of the lightbar such as the lens or outer shell. The LED Emergency Light Bar will have an electronic
