Larson Electronics announced the release of an infrared (IR) LED light built to provide powerful and reliable IR illumination in a rugged and easy to mount design that is ideal for use as a covert military vehicle tail light and indicator. The LEDLB-1-IR-MTL Military Infrared LED Tail Light can withstand demanding conditions and is ideal for operators who want the ability to maintain covert operations without compromising the ability to identify the location of their own vehicles.

The military IR LED tail light gives operators in military and law enforcement covert applications the ability to supplement or replace their vehicles existing tail light and indicator lighting systems with an invisible IR light output visible only to night vision goggles and devices. This LED light is compact in size measuring 2 inches wide by 2 inches tall and has a single mounting stud with stainless steel hardware. This IR LED light allows professionals in covert operations to maintain the convenience and security of a vehicles stop and brake light indicators without compromising the stealth aspects of operating without traditional indicator lighting. The housing is IP68 rated waterproof to three meters of submersion, making this light also fully water and weatherproof. These lights include a host of features including built in heat and voltage managing circuitry for longevity and the ability to run from any voltage ranging from 9 to 42 VDC. These IR military lights can also be ordered in either spot or floodlight configurations, allowing users to apply them to a wide variety of applications including marine, vehicle, security, law enforcement, and just about anywhere a powerful yet compact and durable source of infrared illumination is desired.

“The military IR LED tail light is a powerful LED infrared emitter with a small form factor for use in covert operations,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com. “With a low profile and compact form, this IR emitter is ideal for concealed infrared vehicle lighting.”
