That LED lights provide superior illumination on machinery is testified to by the fact that most manufacturers are equipping their high-horsepower tractors, combines, self-propelled sprayers, and forage harvesters with this lighting either as standard or optional equipment.
The popularity of upgrading older machinery to LEDs is rapidly growing due to the myriad retrofit options now available on the market. LED retrofit options have proliferated in recent years, as will-fit plug-and-play replacements are available for many of the most popular tractor models going back to the early 1970s. When complete kits are not available, there is a wide variety of individual lights available.
What makes LEDs replacement-friendly is the fact that the bulbs draw fewer amps and volts than other sealed beam lights. As a result, you can convert all the older lights on a vehicle and triple or quadruple light output (measured in lumens). An upgrade does not threaten to overload a vehicle’s electrical system, which helps to preserve batteries and alternators.
