New Whelen Duo Liberty

I thought its 12 led's per mod in both colors. The guy wrote its six in each color. Tomar is 12 per head.

they're not dual color LEDs like the axixtech chameleons; the whelen duo libby modules are just red LEDs interweaved with amber LEDs (aka 1/2 the modules = red and 1/2 the modules = amber)
 
Then I guess the Tomar Blade is the king. I think its the brightest low pro lightbar on the market today.
 
Actually the Axixtech Dual color lights were over under leds... red along the top and amber would have been just below them.
 
The Axixtech Duel colour Lightheads. Use LED's that can produce two colours, They don't use 2 separate leds for each colour.


The above lightbar is the Whelen Liberty 2010 which uses modules that contain 12 LED's. 6 in say Red and the Other 6 are blue. I think the corners have 24 LED's. So that probably why the whole lightbar cost's over 3000.


I was told a while ago that Tomar no longer makes the blade. I don't know if this is true tho.


For a true colour changing bar I say go for the Torrent unless you have quite a lot of cash then I would go for the new Fedsig V bar which i can't remember the name of.

The Federal Signal Vision SLR I believe it is?

Looks like the Responder LED is also getting the DUO effect according to the 2011 price list. Looks like around $629 street price. Not sure if they're going to do other colors besides the listed B/A. I'm sure you could get the others thru special order.

Just saw (according to the sales rep) the one and only code3 dual color lightbar in the country at the MEGA show this afternoon. Its going to be pricey but very nicely done. Much better looking than the liberty.

Was this the Defender or the RX 2700CC? I'm understanding that Code 3 is going to offer both lightbars with dual-color technology for sale this quarter.
 
A dual-color Responder makes a lot of sense for guys who are firefighters and who plow. The price will definitely affect the sales, though- you could buy two Responders from HPD and still have a little money left over.

I am not entirely sure this demographic is all that big... Nor is it relatively big enough to justify the MSRP of most/all dual-color bars.

Vision SLR is the one with quad-colour LEDs (red/amb/white/blue) and LED rotators. They are not interleaved - each LED can produce 4 colours.


The Valor is their new V shaped low profile bar. It also is available with Spectralux Technology LEDs that are quad colour.

A vid of the guts of the bar, showing the LED board, is here...

If you read the rest of my post, you would see that I mentioned that.
