The light

Bright, not blinding

Every Kingpin light has a thick, diffused lens. It spreads the light out into one smooth, even glow, and protects the light from hard knocks.

  • No bright hot spots. The whole bar glows evenly.
  • No harsh glare, so it's comfortable to look at, even up close.
  • Soft, even light on your gear, with fewer hard shadows.

Full product description

The F-Series 28" Light is a dual-color 12V LED light with bright 4000K white and red in one slim fixture. Use white to find gear or work late. Switch to red to keep your night vision or draw fewer bugs.

Built-in buttons turn it on and change the color, so you don't need a separate switch. It's weatherproof (IP54) and built for trucks, campers, trailers and vans, inside or out.

It comes with 3M VHB tape and screws, so you can mount it either way. Search Mounts (sold separately) let you turn it 360°.

It runs on 12V DC and draws 0.7 amps at full brightness. Add a Kingpin dimmer to set the brightness. One switch runs up to four 28" lights.

Size: 28" × 1.13" × 0.85". Designed & Engineered in Colorado.

Questions

Good questions, short answers

Up to 2× 40", 4× 28" or 8× 12" lights per switch. Each switch handles 3 amps, so add up the amps: F-40 is 1.1, F-28 is 0.7, F-12 is 0.3.

Yes. Kingpin lights are a universal fit, and they mount inside or outside (weatherproof, IP54). Each one comes with 3M VHB tape and screws. Measure the spot first. F-Series lights are true to length: the 28" light is 28" from end to end. The screw holes sit about ¼" to ⅜" in from each end. On Search Mounts, each bracket is 4" long, and the light is about 1" longer and 1.375" tall.

No. A thick, diffused lens spreads the light evenly, so there are no bright hot spots and no harsh glare. It's easy to work under and easy to be around at camp.

It's very efficient: 0.7 amps at full brightness. Run it for hours off your starting battery and still start up and leave.

Yes. It's weatherproof (IP54): dust-protected and splash-proof from any direction. Don't submerge it.

The light comes with 3M VHB tape and screws, so you can use either one. Search Mounts (360° rotation) are sold separately. Add them above.

No. Tape and screws come in the box. The 3M VHB tape holds on glass, topper doors and smooth panels if you prep the spot: clean it, scuff it lightly, wipe it with rubbing alcohol, then wipe on 3M Primer 94. Most toppers also have a reinforced ceiling for mounting lights. Carpet-lined caps have plywood under the carpet, so use the screws there.

No. On F-Series lights, color is set on the light. Turn the light on and pick white or red with its buttons. The dimmer then turns it on, off and dims it in that color. To switch colors, press the button on the light.

Any 12V DC source works, like a power station's 12V outlet. Most USB ports are 5V, so they won't run the light. Some higher-power USB ports may work, but we don't recommend it.

Love the lights. Went with 3 F-series 40” lights, rear hatch light on F-series search mounts, all on dimmer switches. Lights up the shell, & beyond when needed. Very happy.

This is an excellent addition to my new Overland Vehicle Systems Expedition topper. I got the F series specifically for my MTB practices and hunting so we can be loading or unloading with less bugs! I put 2 40" bars and 2 28" bars all wired into a 2 position switch. This let's me run just the 40s or all 4.

Love these lights. Installed a total of 4 on my truck one of which has magnets and a 15' extension cord and can be put almost anywhere. Plenty of light in both red and white for drone operations.

Man.. I was a little hesitant to drop such funds on rig lighting but then I remembered what a great man once said… “F*** IT” And, he was a great man. These lights are killer. Swivel adjustment brackets are crucial. Dimmer knobs are a must. Overall, after an afternoon of getting it fully dialed just how I wanted it (along with a custom Milwaukee drill bit box turned DIY junction box) I couldn’t be happier. For work or camping; these friggin rock!
