Stage Series

Introducing STAGE SERIES LED lighting! Inspired by the needs of a professional rally driver, these light bars have been designed for maximum functionality, with compact size, custom-engineered TIR optics, and a useful beam pattern, all in a highly durable package.

Compact. The lightbar is based on a narrow-profile extruded housing, to allow fitment in small and tight areas. At less than 42mm tall, they'll fit in many places a traditional dual-row light bar won't, while cutting total weight as well. The heatsink design also drastically reduces wind noise, and does not whistle in the wind like many generic housings.

Focused. The compact size doesn't mean they're short on power! Thanks to the high-intensity Lumileds LED chips, coupled with our U.S. PATENT PENDING total internal reflection (TIR) optic, the total intensity of the Stage Series is far higher than a standard, generic light bar using basic optics or reflectors. Standard optics lose light internally, and to glare, spreading a little bit of light in every direction. Instead, the TIR optic in the Stage Series collects all of the light from the LED, and directs it only where you need it, drastically reducing glare and improving total efficiency.

Functional Patterns. All Stage Series beam pattern options were designed with optical simulation modeling, to shape the output in a highly-functional beam pattern. No matter what your auxiliary lighting needs are, there is a Stage Series optic for you! 

The Driving pattern was designed to supplement your high beams. Rather than a simple "spot" pattern, the Stage Series Driving pattern has a rectangular 20Wx8H degree pattern that is far more useful for directing light downrange at high speeds.

The Flood pattern was designed to provide uniform, even illumination and a full 80Wx50H degree spread of light. Unlike generic "flood" light optics that are simply a heavily diffused spot, our flood optic is a true optically designed spread, resulting in the biggest spread in the industry! It is perfect for lighting up anything at low speeds, a backup or reverse light, or to light up a worksite.

The Combo pattern combines both the Driving and Flood optics. It shines light downrange in a focused, rectangular 20Wx8H degree pattern while also illuminating area around it in a full 80Wx50H degree spread. The Stage Series 42" Combo Light Bar features five driving lenses in the middle with two flood lenses on the outer edges. 

Not just off road. In six-inch size, when installed as a pair and aimed in accordance with your state's regulations, the Driving pattern meets SAE J581 as a Driving/Auxiliary High Beam Light, and the Wide pattern meets SAE J583 as a Foglamp, for legal on-road use. Please check your local laws and regulations for aiming, installation, and applicability.

White or Amber. All Stage Series light bars are available in a cool white or amber color. The white is a 6000K color temperature, which is a true white output, without any blue. The amber is a brilliant deep yellow color, perfect for hazards or high contrast in poor weather. The SS42 Stage Series 42" White Light Bar can be found here

Change it up. Each lightbar is based on 6-inch segments. Each segment is sealed with an individual lens and a double-wall seal. This makes them more weather tight than a large, single seal, and it also allows you to change up the outer lens to suit your needs. With just a few screws, you can replace the outer lens with a new one to change the beam pattern or color. Replacement lenses can be found here.

Simple connections. All Stage Series LED lighting products use a standard DT type Deutsch-style connector, and come with a 6-inch pigtail, with bare leads. You can wire yourself, use an off-the-shelf Deutsch wire harness, or select an optional Diode Dynamics wire harness. If you choose to use a Diode Dynamics wire harness on a 24V system, you will need to replace the relay on the harness with a 24V relay.

Proven Reliability. Stage Series lighting has been tested for long-term operation from -40 to 185 degrees F, vibration, moisture intrusion, and corrosion. All of these tests are completed to SAE/DOT standards, just like factory components. They've also been put to the test on-road, and are in-use by dozens of rally and endurance racing teams for nighttime stages and laps.

Experience. After over a decade in business, Diode Dynamics is one of the most trusted names in automotive LED lighting. We directly assemble and engineer our own products in the United States, allowing for higher quality and performance, with the newest and brightest LED technology. No matter what you're driving, we pride ourselves in offering only the best possible LED solutions. Please contact us if you'd like to discuss your lighting project!

Comfortable Water‑Repellent Summer Shorts That Still Look Casual and Neat
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dark Grey
I find these TACVASEN 7 Inch Casual Twill Shorts very comfortable to wear for warm weather. The polyester twill fabric feels light against the skin and does not trap heat, which makes them a good option for summer days or humid climates. The material also behaves like a water‑repellent, quick‑dry fabric, so light splashes or a bit of sweat do not linger long, and the shorts dry fairly fast instead of staying damp. The overall look is more refined than basic athletic shorts, which I appreciate. The 7‑inch inseam, flat front style, and elastic waistband with drawstring give them a casual, everyday look that can still pass for more polished casual wear if you pair them with a polo or a clean t‑shirt. They do not look sloppy, so they work for running errands, casual outings, or relaxed social situations, not just for the beach or lounging. In terms of construction, the stitching on my pair is nicely done, with no loose threads or obvious defects on the seams or hems. The shorts include two slant pockets and one back pocket, and one of the front pockets has a hidden zipper pocket inside, which is handy for keeping small items like cards or coins more secure without changing the outside look of the shorts. The elastic waistband and drawstring make it easy to dial in the fit without feeling tight. Based on my experience, these shorts would be suitable for a variety of uses such as casual walks, light outdoor activities, beach days, or as comfortable everyday summer shorts that still look presentable enough for casual gatherings. If you want something breathable, quick drying, and a bit more polished than pure gym shorts, these are a solid option. I received this item for free through the Amazon Vine program and I personally evaluate what I receive. I also pay taxes, Social Security and Medicare so I do not treat this as mindless ordering of products I will not use or fully test.

Perfect Summer Shorts for Everyday Wear
Size: Large, Color: Dark Grey
These turned out to be one of those purchases that will become part of the regular summer rotation. The fit is excellent, the fabric feels lightweight without feeling cheap, and they’re extremely comfortable in warm weather. What I like most is that they strike a really nice balance between casual and polished. They don’t look like gym shorts, but they’re just as comfortable. The dark grey color looks clean and versatile, and the 7-inch length feels modern without being overly short. The fabric has a smooth, cool feel and dries quickly, which is great for hot days or even light water exposure. The elastic waistband and drawstring are comfortable without looking sloppy, and the hidden zipper pocket is actually very useful for keys or cards. Another thing I noticed is their durability that they hold their shape well and the material doesn’t wrinkle easily. They work equally well for relaxing, walking around town, travel, or casual dinners outside during summer. Overall, these feel more expensive than they are. Comfortable, lightweight material, practical, and surprisingly stylish.

Fast drying polyester short for casual wear or to use at the beach
Size: Small, Color: Army Green, Size: Small, Color: Army Green
The TACVASEN men's 7" casual beach shorts are lightweight stretchy polyester shorts featuring an elastic waist band for added comfort. These shorts are nicely constructed and durable with no visible signs of defects out of the package. These shorts wear and feel comfortable for all types of activities or for just casual wear if you just want to lounge around. There are two average sized pockets one on each side and one zippered side pocket for added security and a rear pocket suitable for a normal sized wallet. I'm a 5'10" man and these shorts reach to the top of my knee. These shorts also have an average sized drawstring for added tightness if desired. The polyester material allows for fast drying. Overall these shorts offer a good value for wearing to most occasions.

Great casual shorts
Size: Small, Color: Blue Gray
These men’s water-resistant beach shorts have been a great purchase. I got them for my son, and he says they’re extremely comfortable. He especially loves how soft the material feels, which makes them easy to wear all day at the beach, pool, or just casually around town. The water-resistant fabric works well and dries quickly, which is a huge plus for swimwear. They fit nicely and allow for plenty of movement without feeling stiff or heavy. Overall, these are comfortable, well-made shorts with great material, and my son has been really happy with them.

Nice shorts but no fly
Size: Medium, Color: Blue Gray, Size: Medium, Color: Blue Gray
These shorts are well made with three pockets on the sides, 2 standard and one zippered, along with one pocket on the back. They are made of a polyester fabric and do feel as though they will be waterproof. They are well constructed and should hold up well. My issue with these shorts is that they have no fly, just fake stiching on the front. Yes, they say they are for the beach, but that is no reason not to have a fly. Swim trunks are one thing, no one expects a fly on them, but on shorts, yes I do. I always like to include a picture of the laundry instructions,, I hate getting something and discovering it takes special care.
