RIGID Industries Delivers Smart Lighting Technology for the Aftermarket

RIGID Industries is launching its A2Z for e-Mobility initiative to develop smarter, more efficient lighting technology optimized for electric vehicles (EVs).

A2Z for e-Mobility builds upon the technology innovations found in the RIGID Adapt E-Series LED light bar, among the first accessories in the aftermarket industry today, which can be installed on ICE-powered vehicles, but are optimized for EVs.

The RIGID Adapt E-Series has two layers of adaptive response for vehicle and driving conditions. The first layer of adaptive response is RIGID's Active Power Management (APM) system which continuously monitors input voltage to determine the status of the vehicle's electrical system. If the voltage is stable, the Adapt E-Series will continue to utilize all available power for the most output possible. If the available voltage to the light begins to drop due to insufficient power, RIGID's APM system will gradually reduce the light's power consumption until the vehicle's voltage stabilizes.

The second layer of adaptive response is RIGID's proven Active View Technology, which utilizes an internal GPS to monitor the vehicle's speed, allowing the Adapt E-Series to properly distribute power among three unique optic zones, creating an optimal beam pattern to suit the vehicle's speed. As the speed changes, power is dynamically routed through various optics (scene optics for low speed, driving optics for moderate speed and spot optics for high-speed driving). This allows for a seamless transition between beam patterns.
