2010-08-06T19:27:00.000-07:00

How many times have you been out in the woods, enjoying your Polaris ATV, having the time of your life, and then your day is interrupted by a sudden surprise rain shower? Do you really want to stop riding to tug on rain gear overtop of what you're already wearing? Or what if you don't usually bother to carry rain gear around with you on top of everything else you need? Even if you don't mind the rain on your face, no one enjoys walking around for hours in wet clothes while waiting for them to dry.

There are other advantages as well. Everyone gets tired of getting a mouthful of bugs or a branch snapping across their face, legs, or arms. Hunters would want to keep their valued firearms and ammunition safe from falls and perfectly dry. It's always nice to be able to get out of the wind when it's really blowing hard.

Polaris has the perfect solution for you. The Polaris RZR Cab is the perfect accessory for being able to ride all day no matter what the weather conditions and remain dry and comfortable. This easy to install modular system can protect you from whatever the environment throws at you.

The Polaris RZR Cab uses revolutionary Lock & Ride technology that makes installation a snap. Removal is just as easy. The entire Cab system can be installed easily and quickly. Each part weighs less than twenty five pounds making it easy for the smallest person to use. The doors open to the side and the windows easily pop right out if you want to feel the wind blowing on your face without the rain or sun pounding on your head. The Polaris RZR cab also features a convenient rear sliding window.

This useful modular system can also be installed in parts. You can purchase or install each individual piece or use the whole Polaris RZR Cab system together. Parts include the roof, the front windshield, the back windshield, as well as the side doors. The parts install by connecting to the cab frame cage that is the one absolutely necessary part.

The Polaris RZR Cab fits the Polaris Ranger RZR for model years 2008 through 2010. Other accessories such as a cargo box, cargo bag, or hunting accessories can also be installed in seconds using the Lock & Ride system without any additional tools.

LED Light Bars

2010-08-06T19:23:00.000-07:00

The most common application of LED light bars is on emergency services vehicles such as police, fire, and ambulance. However, they can also be useful in a home, office, or workshop environment as a great source of lighting. They are a very powerful, durable, and versatile source of light.

How Are LED Light Bars Used?

Light-Emitting Diodes (LED) are a semiconductor light source that can be seen at extremely long distances. LED light bars are the ideal choice for emergency vehicle lighting for several reasons. They can be made into light bars which can be manufactured very thin and flat. This will cut down wind resistance when traveling at high speeds. Also, in order for these types of vehicles to get to their destination safely, other motorists must be able to see them easily. Bad weather, mainly fog, can cause problems with visibility and a very powerful source of light must be used to avoid disaster. LED light bars are extremely bright, and more types of flash patterns can be programmed into them than traditional strobe lights. These patterns are tested to see which are the most attention grabbing to other motorists.

Emergency vehicles are not the only use for Led light bars though. Many people use this awesome lighting source in their home to save space as well as provide a great source of light. Because of their size, they can be easily installed under cabinets or other areas where space is at a premium. For these types of applications, LED light bars are available in white to give the most light in dark spaces. Some motorists will install them on the grill of their vehicle, which can offer a very powerful source of additional lighting. This can be ideal for the person who drives at night in low visibility areas. However, care must be taken when other vehicles are present because these light are extremely bright and distracting.
