Optronics International's Fusion Thinline surface-mounted LED combination is a stop, tail, turn, and backup lamp.

The lamp combines stop, tail, turn and backup functions into a common bar light format. Fusion lamps are already available in 4-inch round and 6-inch oval formats with grommet and flange mount versions.

At 20.5 inches long, 1 inch wide and 3/4-inch thick, the Fusion Thinline LED can be mounted nearly anywhere on a vehicle, including vehicle body panels, frame posts, docking plates, or gussets.

The low-profile design hugs the vehicle surface, and lets users avoid cutting large mounting holes that can reduce structural integrity and promote corrosion. Wiring for the Fusion Thinline requires only a 1/2-inch hole and two small mounting holes for either rivets or screws. Damaged lamps can be rewired and replaced easily, according to Optronics.

The lamps meet all FMVSS 108 photometric requirements for visibility and safety. Lenses and housings are made of a polycarbonate material that is sonically welded. The lamps employ a solid-state, surface-mount device design that protects the electronics against moisture, shock, and vibration.

All Fusion lamps come with one-diode lifetime warranty protection that will replace the lamp if even one diode fails. The new Fusion LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamps, part number STL264RB, are expected to begin shipping in early spring.
