Lightforce Lights GO THE DISTANCE!
Aug 31, 2010

These lights have done approximately 334,000 KM on 3 separate vehicles, have hit 1 kangaroo, 3 ducks, 1 wedge tailed eagle and a multitude of birds and are still looking as good as new and have not even required a new bulb....

Genesis Passes the Simpson Desert Test
Aug 20, 2010

We had a fabulous trip across the desert a few weeks ago with the 4WD Action team. The Pajero went like a dream and we can't wait to get back out there again.

The Genesis HID lights attracted a lot of interest from all participants, one commented that it was like being followed by the Sydney Football Stadium lights. I found them to be an exceptional light to drive behind, the clarity and brightness is outstanding and the mounts did not move over the heavy corrugations on some of the tracks out there.

Spot the Spotlight!
Aug 11, 2010

A Lightforce devotee sent this image in to us recently - which other light can withstand an inferno?

"I just witnessed a road train burn to the ground and couldn't help but notice how the fantastic Lightforce spotlight was the last recognisable thing - virtually untouched."

Holy Cow!
Jul 28, 2010

Thought I would share this with you as you may want to use this as a testimonial for your Lightforce products.

I recently purchased two brand new Lightforce 240 Blitz driving lights for a road trip from Darwin to Broome. First, the difference they made at night on the open road was amazing. But when I was North of Broome, at a very unlikely time and unlikely place I somehow managed to hit a cow while I was travelling at approx 60km/hr. Here is the photo of the outcome of this collision. As you will see, damage was only obtained on one light. Both lights impacted on the cow, however the one on the right actually hit the cow full on.

I am amazed at how little damage was obtained, as I would have expected the entire fitting to snap, the reflector to shatter and would never have thought that I would have used it to get back home to Darwin as my standard headlights were obliterated from the force of the accident. Without the Lightforce 240 driving lights I would have had to wait in Broome for new headlights!

One big reason I chose Lightforce products was due to its reputation in toughness, and that was certainly proved and I will certainly share this with those in the 4X4 community.
Here are the photos of the accident and a close up of the damage obtained to the light.

Thanks very much,

Meet John Fairbrother - the newest addition to the Lightforce family!
Jun 18, 2010

It is with great pleasure, that we announce the appointment of our Sales & Marketing Director, John Fairbrother.

With a background in international sales and marketing (Business Degree and Diploma in Marketing), John was born in England & has worked in many countries for a variety of companies but mainly in the packaging B2B sector. Most recent positions held were with Detpak and Carl Zeiss Vision.

John and his family (wife Sue and daughter Nuala) migrated to Australia in 2006 and now live in Stirling, in the Adelaide Hills. John and his family are embracing Australia and all it has to offer, with one of their favourite family past times - the great Aussie Family Camping Holiday! Although they have already seen many places, they are rapidly gaining an appreciation of how big Australia is and the diversity it has to offer, when John heard about the opportunity to join Lightforce, he jumped at the offer to mix his passions.

Since joining Lightforce in early June, John is on a rapid learning curve to understand the philosophies of the company, the people and the products. One of the first things John learnt is that Lightforce products are not ordinary. Which he sensed is due to the passion and commitment the staff have to product quality and performance. He feels fortunate that he has an opportunity to combine his passion of the outdoors with some of the best products designed and produced for the outdoors. In addition to this, John is working in a company alongside people whose expectations match his own in ensuring high standard of quality, innovation and providing exceptional customer service. Even in these early days, John has begun to realise that it is no accident that Lightforce has become the best in the world. The passionate attention of Lightforce staff to the quality of the products, the focus on research and development and the complete commitment to building strong, rewarding and lasting relationships with business partners is evident and the whole organisation. John’s career has only just begun and he is relishing the challenge ahead of him.

Welcome!

Roo Strike
Sep 2, 2009

"Hit a roo last night at 120kph, the upper body came in direct contact with the lights, both lights were hit with such force that they rolled back so far they dented the bonnet and yet survived, only one globe blew, lucky I had a spare in the glove box cause as you can see I lost all 4 headlights so all that got me the remaining 600kms was my driving lights, cant think off any other light that would have survived that !!!! "

Thought this email was worth sharing!

If you have a similar story - we'd love to hear from you!
