The Lifeline 421-100-0011 LED rain light has a light output of 3269 cd (more than 3.5x the competition), making this light intensely bright and extremely visible. The 4Hz flash mode meets the latest FIA standard, flashing between full power and 40% to ensure constant visibility. With a working voltage of 9 VDC to 14 VDC with a miniscule 700mA draw, this rain light has become the rain light of choice of racers with very small alternators or racers running off the battery alone.

Lifeline FIA LED Rain Light Benefits

• Extremely high brightness
• Lightweight
• Energy efficient
• Robust
• Submersible / Waterproof
• Vibration resistant
• Overheat protected
• Replaceable protective screen

The Lifeline LED Rain Light has an estimated 35,000 hour life – approximately 3.5 times more than the typical competitor. Made with an engineered aluminum heatsink base and 100% weatherproof connectors, this piece is designed to last in the most demanding conditions.

Flashing rain lights are now mandated by several North American racing series and are highly recommended when stalled on the grid, driving slowly with a misfire or puncture, or during a safety car or red flag period to aid in visibility and prevent impact.
