How you doing and thanks for watching. This is George at Wicked Warnings, your number one
source for construction and emergency safety and strobe lighting equipment for cars, trucks, vans,
buses, SUVs, bicycles, tricycles, and everything else. As you can see here, we've got a real pretty
2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Now this is the upper trim level Lariat, so it does have the LED package. Not
all Lariats have this but this one does have the LED headlights, as well as the LED tail
lights. The LED tail lights are very common in the Lariat trim line but the headlights are not. So
this is a nice Lariat. As you can see here, we're running a couple of different products. We have
our Wicked Warnings Auto Flasher doing the C-Ring around the headlights and back by popular demand,
I've also used the Auto Flasher on the amber front signal light to get an alternating amber. You can
see there, we've got two of our Razor LED strobe lights in the grille right below the hood. We're
also running our Auto Flasher module on the white forward-facing mirror lights and the roof lights,
as well as some lighting around back. Now if you're interested in any of these products,
please look in the video description or at the little info graphic on the upper
right hand corner of this video, should probably be showing up right about here,
and you can click and get links to all of these products.
Just to give you an idea of what it will look like with the parking lights on, as you can see, those
C-rings have a lower intensity brightness for parking mode. So what you're going to get there
now is a bright-dim bright-dim flash. With any of the parking lights on the vehicle activated,
still very visible, very unique. There's a little bit better off-axis shot where you can really see
that headlight and now I'll turn off the parking lights and show you what that looks like. So there
you go. That's how you can get it without the parking lights. As you can see, we've alternated
the front turn signals with the C-Rings in the X-pattern everybody is so popularly choosing. You
can see a little reflection there in the badges, we have our Thin-X LIN series in each side badge.
Here you can see the side badge there. We elected a very fast alternating full flash amber-white
amber-white. That particular light head, the Thin-X LIN series, has a lot of flash patterns,
as well as many split patterns where the light will split the color in half on the light and
alternate colors back and forth. Another one of the features that many of our lights have,
including this Thin-X LIN series, is our flood mode. We have an additional wire
that anytime power is activated by it, and you can see, we also have used that feature
in our Auto Flasher module on the mirror lights, when you activate power to that additional wire,
the light will steady burn white. Here you can see we've also tied that flood wire from the Razors
into that same circuit. This truck is switched via two switches, one for flashing,
one for flood. Very simple and we didn't flood everything, only certain lights. Obviously, we
would have no need to flood the roof light and we elected to leave the C-Ring off of the flood mode
but if you like to flood the C-Ring, you could with the Auto Flasher module and it would steady
white the same as the Razor next to it. Now you do not need to have the flashing on to use flood.
As you can see, if you simply needed more light, you can turn on the flood mode and have none
of the flashing action happening either. Both features work independent of each other. However,
the flood will always override the flashing. Here you can see a little bit in the back.
We've got some flood mode going on back there I'll show you shortly and as I pan left,
you can see the flood mode in the mirror and the badge light right there as well.
Okay, let me spin it around and show you what we did around the back.
Alrighty, around the back, we've got quite a bit happening here but it is very
tastefully done. You can see our Thin-X LIN series in the badge there pointed backwards. Underneath
the tailgate, we're using the very same light, only we're only activating the amber warning.
With our Thin-X LIN series, you can choose to flash amber, flash white, flash amber and white,
as we're doing in the side badges, all while still having that flood mode. So because we have the
Auto Flasher module already flashing those white reverse lights, we wanted to add some amber only.
So what we've done is because this truck is not a dual rear wheel, it is not required to have those
three red lights that are normally mounted right above the rear license plate. So there's
a factory plastic blank there that every truck that's ever made in this series has,
and you can attach your Thin-X LIN right to that plastic and it's a very simple, very easy mount,
and allows you to get some good amber right there and
use an Auto Flasher if you happen to have the LED reverse tail lights like this truck.
Now to be more specific about what I mean by LED tail lights. Obviously, the headlights are very
easy to tell but we get asked a lot about the tail lights. As you can see on this taillight,
it has the LED ring around it that kind of matches the front headlight, where the non-LED
tail lights do not have that. Also, in this tail light, you cannot physically look in there and see
a light bulb and if you take the tail light off, there is no light bulb on the back but if you look
in the non-LED tail light, you can actually see the light bulb on the top and the bottom,
where this one, it is all reflector and LED panel. So that's an easy way to tell whether or not you have
the LED. The other way is to put simply, put the truck in reverse and you'll be able to see if you
have these crisp white reverse lights or if you have a more incandescent yellower-looking reverse
and you will need the LED tail lights to run this Auto Flasher module. Otherwise, you'll need to run
a hideaway. You can see we also have the Auto Flasher module running the cargo light circuit.
It is flashing the light above the bed, as well as the keyhole light on the tailgate.
You can grab that circuit very easily in the cab of the truck with our Auto Flasher module and
that's what you end up with. Now you can, if you wanted to get into the third brake light, split up
that third brake light because it does have a camera and I have more detailed videos about
this in our Auto Flasher section, but you can either wig-wag that third brake light left-right
left-right, or you can flash it simultaneous the way we do. We prefer to flash it simultaneously
because it has a better output and more- it is more visible this way. When you split it up,
it's not as visible. Now when flood is activated, as you can see, not only does it flood the
fender badge light up front as we showed earlier, but it's also hooked up to flood
the Auto Flasher module on the reverse lights, as well as those Thin-X LIN series amber-white
underneath the tailgate. We elected not to flood the cargo light because we didn't want to lose all
warning in the rear. So as I said, you can use flood independent. You can use it with or without
the warning but I didn't want to leave the vehicle completely warning-less when flood mode was on,
so we left the cargo light alone. That way, if he happens to be using flood and his flashers, he has
at least some coverage in the rear and as I showed you in the front, plenty of coverage in the front.
Here's a quick shot of our Thin-X in the badge there. Here's a shot of how
I mounted the Thin-X onto that plastic panel. As I said earlier, every truck has this panel
unless you're dual rear wheel, then you'll have three DOT red lights there and I don't believe
these will fit then. Inside, as I said, kept it very easy right here, Aux 1 flash, Aux 2 flood.
We could have used Aux 5 and 6 if we wanted key-off activation but this customer did not.
So thanks again for watching Wicked Warnings, your number one source for
construction and emergency safety strobe lighting and equipment. Make sure to check
