With international travel expected to remain restricted by COVID-19 for much of this year, many New Zealanders are seizing the opportunity to explore the great outdoors.
Ensuring that the vehicle is well set up for such adventures is essential and upgrading the lighting is a good place to start. Automotive lighting specialist, NARVA, has made it easy to select the right lighting package with its Explora line up of L.E.D driving lights and light bars, which strike the perfect balance between cost, performance and reliability.
Whilst NARVA’s flagship Ultima 215 light is designed for dedicated off-road and transport vehicles in need of immense amounts of light, NARVA says the Explora range will appeal to people whose vehicles spend most of their time on bitumen with the occasional weekend away, wanting powerful lights in a compact design.
“Explora lights are designed for easy fitment to any SUV, passenger vehicle, work ute or small car whilst further enhancing the look of the vehicle,” says Tim Paterson, National Sales Manager for Griffiths Equipment, which distributes NARVA products throughout New Zealand.
“Our 175mm lights have a slim profile that will fit within almost any bull bar, whilst our 14” light bar comes with a number plate bracket, so installation is a breeze on any registered vehicle and the bar is very subtle in appearance”.
Drivers can expect high levels of performance from the whole Explora range, adds Mr Paterson: “A pair of Explora 175’s put out 3,800 lumens of 5000k light, for 1 lux at 535 metres. What that means is, from 535 metres away, you’d have enough light to read a newspaper”.
The 175mm driving lights are the latest addition to the Explora family, aimed at those who enjoy the traditional look of spotlights. With an L.E.D light pipe position indicator, the classic round appearance takes on a modern look without overstating their presence when switched off.
The Explora light bars are equally impressive in performance; with the number plate mounted 14” bar pushing out 6,000 lumens and the 22” double row bar an enormous 18,000 lumens. NARVA credits this punch-above-their-weight performance of Explora lights to “Optic Drive Technology”, which the company employs across the range. Utilising a specially designed reflector, this technology allows Explora lights to produce 20% more light output compared to more traditional free-form L.E.D driving lights and light bars of a similar size.
“The Explora range is proof you don’t need to spend a fortune to get solid performance from a top quality product, supported by local stockists and backed by a local warranty, from a trusted name in automotive lighting”, says Mr Paterson.
NARVA’s Explora driving lights and light bars can be purchased from leading automotive accessory outlets throughout New Zealand.
