Purelux Road Curve C790 - Curved / 79 cm / 180W / Ref. 40

The Purelux Road Curve C790 is the long-awaited, larger and more powerful version of the Road Curve auxiliary light panel that has made Purelux famous, and its features are the best in its class! In addition to its stylish, dark-toned appearance, the C790's features include a frameless lens, a two-color (white and orange) parking light, and two different power modes. The panel can be switched to either the power mode approved for road traffic, or alternatively the Purelux PowerBoost® mode intended for off-road driving, which harnesses the panel's unlimited light output. In PowerBoost mode, the C790 is capable of producing, according to the manufacturer, a staggering 16,500 lumens of light output and a measured range of well over half a kilometer (1 @ lux)! The light beam, which is strictly limited in the vertical direction and evenly spread laterally, directs the entire light output of the panel to exactly the right place, and no light is lost, for example, in the treetops.

Note! The difference between Purelux PowerBoost® and road mode is clearly noticeable in use - PowerBoost mode is significantly more efficient and should not be used when driving in normal road traffic, only off-road.

Road Curve C790 is an additional light panel designed specifically for the dark and winding roads of the Nordic countries, and its features have been honed with the long and dark winter in mind. The panel has a strictly vertically limited and evenly distributed light pattern in the lateral direction, which does not emit unnecessary scattered light into the sky or directly onto the ground in front of the car. The C790's precise light beam improves visibility and significantly increases traffic safety even in poor weather conditions, as the light does not target snow drifts from the sky or reflect wet asphalt whipped by rain into the driver's eyes, and it also does not form a dazzling "ball of light" directly in front. This means that the panel can also be installed low, for example under a license plate, making the additional light a neat and unobtrusive part of the whole. High light output combined with a precise light beam provide an impressive measured range of 635 m @ 1 lux, which gives the driver significantly more time to react to events on the road. This panel is suitable for both ordinary road users and professional drivers!
