Optronics’ High-style, Low-profile, Multifunction, Surface-mount LED Taillight Replaces Four Lamps, Sets the Stage for Future Combo Lamp Offering

NEW STL02/03 LED TAILLIGHT PERFORMS SIDE MARKER, REAR CLEARANCE, LICENSE PLATE ILLUMINATION FUNCTIONS, SERVES AS A REAR AND SIDE REFLECTOR

Optronics International, a manufacturer of vehicle harnesses, electronic control systems, and LED lighting for the global transportation industry, introduced its new STL02/03 LED taillight. The low-profile, surface-mount lamps function as stop, tail, and turn as well as rear and side clearance and marker lamps. They also serve as rear and side reflectors and come with a license plate light. Though they fit within the footprint for taillights, their shape and styling makes them as attractive as they are functional.

The lamps are also the first in a new series of lamps that combine even more functionalities, including backup lighting. Optronics engineered the STL02/03 LED taillight’s modular design so that it can be configured into novel lighting assemblies that can easily be customized to meet the preferences of OEMs and fleets alike.

“The low-profile, multi-function, surface-mount STL02/03 LED taillight is just the latest in a long line of intelligently designed lighting that consolidate the functionality of multiple lamps into just one,” Marcus Hester, chief marketing officer for Optronics International, says. “The result is a high-value lighting package that is less expensive than the sum of its functional parts.”

The thin, surface-mount lamps measure just 1.25 inches in depth and can be mounted virtually anywhere regulations allow. The lamps are available with stud mounts enabling installation from the rear; owners can also mount the lights from the front using screws or other fastener methods.

Further, the lamps are compatible with a wide range of vehicle types, including: box trucks; bulk haulers; CNG transports; concrete mixers; cranes; dump bodies; fire and rescue; flatbeds; food and beverage; service bodies; and utility and telecom vehicles. Optronics also expects the burgeoning recreational vehicle industry to take note of the new lamp.

“With the introduction of the STL02/03 LED taillight, Optronics continues its mission to deliver better value, better options, and better lighting to the commercial vehicle industry,” Hester says. “Please stay tuned for updates on how this trendsetting modular lamp will keep setting the pace in new configurations in 2022.”

Optronics made the lamp’s lens and housing from sealed and waterproof polycarbonate material. The lamp employs a solid-state, surface-mount device (SMD) design that protects its electronics against moisture, shock, and vibration. These lamps come with a no-hassle, one-diode lifetime warranty protection that will replace the lamp if even one diode fails.

Finally, the new low-profile, multi-function, surface-mount STL02/03 LED taillights are in stock and available for shipping now. The upcoming modular iterations with backup functions and additional lens options are expected in the first quarter of 2022.
