Peterson Adds 10-diode Model to Line of Smart Lamps
Missouri-based Peterson Manufacturing has added a new 10-diode multi-function model to its line of Piranha LED Smart Lamps, the company's advanced warning light technology that combines strobing LEDs and automatic turn signal override functions

Missouri-based Peterson Manufacturing has added a new 10-diode multi-function model to its line of Piranha LED Smart Lamps, the company's advanced warning light technology that combines strobing LEDs and automatic turn signal override functions.
The new four-inch round lamp is SAE J845 class two compliant and DOT approved. The company has designed each unit with an electronic strobe and turn signal functions. In addition, the models are equipped with digital "synchro wire" technology, which keeps lamps in both dual and quad system installations synchronized. No external flasher or control box is required.
"The beauty of our Smart Lamp system is simplicity," said Mark Assenmacher, Peterson's director of marketing. "It's truly an integrated, hassle-free solution for refuse, maintenance and service vehicles-rugged, more compatible and easier to install than any other strobe system on the market."
The model also comes with a triple-flash strobe function that can be manually activated or configured for automatic strobing when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. Activating the turn signal automatically overrides the alternating strobe function.
The 10-diode models are available in two series-the 4344 with AMP-compatible main port plus hardwired Packard hardshell connector for sync wire connection, and the 8344, which accepts AMP SuperSeal 1.5 connectors for all functions. Both models fit standard four-inch mounting grommets.
