Skylord Exp 1500 mm LED warning light bar

Strands Skylord EXP LED Warning Light Bar 1500 mm - R65 Class 2 with 24 Warning Patterns and Bluetooth Control

Strands Skylord EXP LED Warning Light Bar 1500 mm is a wide, low-profile and technically advanced LED warning light bar for professional vehicles where high visibility and reliable warning performance are essential. With 24 different warning patterns, separate day and night modes, Cruise Mode and ECE R65 Class 2 approval, it provides a complete solution for larger service vehicles, recovery vehicles, vans, trucks, road maintenance vehicles and work machinery.

This version measures a full 1500 mm in length, providing a large warning surface across the vehicle roof. The size is particularly well suited to wider and larger vehicles where a shorter light bar may appear too small and where the warning signal needs to extend across a greater part of the vehicle width.

Skylord EXP is also much more than a conventional warning light bar. It is integrated into the Strands SKYN1 EXP system and communicates wirelessly via Bluetooth with the SKYN1 EXP controller inside the vehicle. This allows on/off control, warning patterns, steady light and day/night mode to be operated directly from the driver's position without conventional separate control wiring between the light bar and the control panel.

E-Approved According to ECE R65 Class 2

Skylord EXP Warning Light Bar 1500 mm is E-approved according to ECE R65 Class 2 and developed for professional warning lighting.

R65 Class 2 means the warning light features separate output levels for daytime and night-time use. In bright daylight, high output is required to keep the warning signal clearly visible, while a lower level can be used in darkness to maintain effective warning performance without unnecessarily intense light.

This makes the bar particularly suitable for vehicles used throughout the day and night where lighting conditions may change significantly during a working shift.

24 Different Warning Patterns

Skylord EXP offers no fewer than 24 different warning patterns. This provides extensive flexibility to adapt how the bar operates according to the vehicle, application and working environment.

Available patterns include:

• Single Flash
• Double Flash
• Quad Flash
• Fast Flash
• Random Flash
• Dynamic Flash
• SOS
• Alternating Single Flash
• Alternating Double Flash
• Alternating Quad Flash
• Alternating Fast Flash
• Multi-segment Sync & Async Flashing
• Clockwise Sequential
• Counter-clockwise Sequential
• Chase Left to Right
• Chase Right to Left
• Centre-out Sequential
• Edge-to-centre Sequential
• Sequential patterns combined with steady light
• Breath
• Centre-out Sequential with strobe

The large selection of patterns makes the same warning light bar suitable for many different professional applications, from roadside assistance and recovery to construction, transport and service work.

48 Possible Modes with Day and Night Function

The 24 warning patterns can be combined with separate day and night modes. This provides up to 48 different operating modes.

The driver can switch between day and night modes directly from the SKYN1 EXP controller without making any physical adjustment to the bar itself.

This makes the system particularly practical on vehicles used during long working days and continuing to operate after dark.

Cruise Mode and Steady Light

In addition to the various flash patterns, Skylord EXP also features Cruise Mode and a steady-light function.

Steady light can be activated directly from the SKYN1 EXP controller, providing additional flexibility in different working situations.

The functions and lighting modes permitted on public roads can vary between countries, vehicle types and applications. Always check local regulations for the specific installation.

SKYN1 EXP - Wireless Bluetooth Control

One of the biggest advantages of Skylord EXP is its integrated SKYN1 EXP Bluetooth communication. The light bar communicates wirelessly with the SKYN1 EXP Wireless Controller inside the vehicle.

Once the bar has been connected to power and paired, the system automatically recognises it as a warning light and assigns it to the correct function on the controller.

There is therefore no need to manually programme the controller to tell it which type of EXP product has been connected.

The SKYN1 EXP Wireless Controller, part number 907851S1, is required for the light bar to operate and is sold separately. The bar cannot be activated or function-tested until it has been paired with the controller.

Easy Control from the Driver's Position

Once paired, functions are controlled through simple commands from the SKYN1 EXP controller:

• Single press - switches the warning light bar on or off
• Double press - changes to the next warning pattern
• Triple press - activates steady light
• Hold for 3-5 seconds - switches between day and night modes
• Hold for more than 5 seconds - resets the bar to the first warning pattern and day mode

This provides fast access to the key functions from a physical controller inside the cabin without requiring a mobile phone during driving or work.

Memory Function Restores the Last Used Mode

SKYN1 EXP features a built-in memory function that remembers the last active warning mode.

On a work vehicle where the same pattern is used day after day, this means there is no need to cycle through every warning pattern each time the bar is used.

1500 mm for Large Service Vehicles and Trucks

With a length of 1500 mm, the bar provides a strong visual presence on the vehicle roof. This makes it particularly suitable for larger vehicles where a wider warning light bar provides both better proportions and a larger illuminated area.

The 1500 mm version is especially suitable for:

• Larger vans
• Service vehicles
• Recovery vehicles
• Roadside assistance vehicles
• Trucks
• Road maintenance vehicles
• Construction vehicles
• Special-purpose work vehicles

For smaller vehicles, Skylord EXP is also available in shorter versions, allowing the light bar size to be better matched to the vehicle width and application.

Amber LED Segments Provide a Clear Warning Signal

Skylord EXP uses powerful amber LED segments for its warning function. On the 1500 mm version, the light is distributed across a large area, creating a clear visual warning signal around the vehicle.

A wide roof-mounted warning light bar is particularly useful in environments where the vehicle must attract attention quickly, including:

• Road work
• Recovery operations
• Roadside assistance
• Road maintenance
• Loading and unloading
• Service work
• Construction work
• Work involving heavy vehicles and machinery

Extremely Low Profile - Only Approximately 34.2 mm

Despite the bar measuring a full 1500 mm in length, the light bar body is only approximately 34.2 mm high.

The low profile provides a modern and significantly more integrated appearance than many traditional warning light bars. This is particularly attractive on modern vans, trucks and service vehicles where a tall and bulky roof installation is undesirable.

The bar is approximately 150 mm deep, while total height including the mounting brackets is approximately 71.8 mm.

Dark Lens for a Discreet Appearance When Switched Off

Skylord EXP features a dark polycarbonate lens that gives the bar a discreet and modern appearance when the warning light is switched off.

When the bar is activated, the amber LED segments become clearly visible through the dark lens and create an effective warning signal.

The combination of a dark lens, low profile and aluminium construction gives the light bar a much more modern appearance than many conventional warning light bars.

227 W Power Consumption

The 1500 mm version has a power consumption of 227 W. The higher output compared with the shorter models reflects the larger bar's additional light segments and greater warning area.

The light bar power supply should therefore be correctly sized according to the vehicle electrical system and Strands' installation instructions.

Always use the correct cable size and fuse for the installation.

10-32 V - Compatible with Both 12 V and 24 V

Skylord EXP Warning Light Bar operates on 10-32 V DC. This means the same product can be used on both 12 V and 24 V vehicles.

The wide voltage range makes the 1500 mm version particularly useful for professional vehicle applications involving vans, trucks and work machinery.

2.5 Metre Connection Cable

The light bar is connected through a 2500 mm cable with separate positive and negative conductors. A fuse is included.

The generous cable length provides greater freedom during installation on larger vehicles and makes it easier to route power from the light bar to a suitable connection point.

Bluetooth Reduces the Need for Control Wiring

On conventional warning light bars, multiple control functions can require several separate wires between the bar and dashboard.

Skylord EXP instead uses Bluetooth communication between the light bar and controller. The bar still requires the correct power supply, but commands for:

• On and off
• Warning pattern selection
• Steady light
• Day and night modes

are transmitted wirelessly from the SKYN1 EXP controller.

This can make the installation significantly cleaner and reduce the amount of signal wiring that needs to be routed from the roof through the vehicle body and into the cabin.

Part of a Complete SKYN1 EXP Lighting System

Skylord EXP Warning Light Bar can be combined with other compatible products within the SKYN1 EXP system.

The system can automatically identify and separate several different types of lighting:

• Driving lights and LED light bars
• Position lights
• Work lights
• Warning lights

This means you can, for example, combine the 1500 mm wide warning light bar with Skylord EXP work lights and Skylord EXP driving lights and use the same control system for all functions.

Two Groups for Larger Installations

SKYN1 EXP Wireless Controller features two separate groups. This allows compatible EXP lights to be divided according to factors such as mounting position or application.

On larger service vehicles and trucks, this can be particularly useful when several work lights, warning lights and driving lights are installed around the complete vehicle.

The system can therefore develop from a simple installation with one warning light bar into a comprehensive and integrated vehicle lighting system.

Support for Up to 32 Compatible EXP Lights

The SKYN1 EXP system can manage up to 32 compatible lights across the controller's two groups.

This means the warning light bar can become part of a significantly larger installation on an advanced service vehicle, recovery truck or other specialist vehicle.

IP67 for Permanent External Installation

Skylord EXP is designed for external vehicle mounting and features an IP67 rating.

This provides a high level of protection against both dust and water, which is important for a product continuously exposed to rain, snow, dirt and changing weather conditions on the vehicle roof.

Electrical connections and cable entries should still be completed using suitable waterproof solutions according to the installation instructions.

Rugged Aluminium and Polycarbonate Construction

The light bar construction combines an aluminium base with an upper plastic section and a durable polycarbonate lens.

The aluminium base provides a stable foundation for the long 1500 mm construction, while the polycarbonate lens is well suited to a product exposed to weather, vibration and daily use on professional vehicles.

Designed for -35 °C to +65 °C

Skylord EXP has a specified operating temperature range from -35 °C to +65 °C.

This makes the bar well suited to year-round use even in environments with major temperature variations, from cold Nordic winter conditions to hot summer days.

R10.07, CE-RED and Bluetooth SIG

In addition to ECE R65 Class 2, Skylord EXP is approved according to ECE R10.07 for electromagnetic compatibility.

The wireless Bluetooth function is also covered by CE-RED and Bluetooth SIG.

This is particularly important in modern vehicles where warning lighting and other aftermarket electronic systems need to operate alongside the vehicle's existing electronics.

Mounting Brackets and Fuse Included

Skylord EXP is supplied with the basic mounting components required for the light bar. The package includes:

• 2 mounting brackets
• M8 screws
• M8 spacers
• M8 spring washers and nuts
• M6 screws
• M6 spring washers and nuts
• EVA protective pads
• Fuse

The exact mounting solution must be adapted to the vehicle construction and applicable requirements for warning light installation.

Service-Friendly Modular Design

The Skylord EXP range is designed with a modular construction that simplifies future servicing. If an individual light module needs to be replaced, the relevant module can be accessed through the upper section of the bar instead of automatically replacing the complete warning light bar.

This is an important advantage on professional vehicles where equipment may be used for many hours every day and long-term serviceability matters.

All disassembly and servicing should be carried out according to Strands' instructions to avoid damaging seals or other protective components.

SKYN1 EXP Controller Required - Pair Before Final Installation

Skylord EXP is designed to operate together with the SKYN1 EXP system and therefore cannot be tested like a conventional warning light bar simply by connecting positive and negative power.

All lighting functions remain locked until the bar has been paired with the SKYN1 EXP Wireless Controller 907851S1.

Strands therefore recommends first connecting the bar to power, pairing it with the controller and function-testing it before permanent installation.

This allows power supply, Bluetooth communication and all functions to be verified before the installation is completed.
