Adding an LED light bar or bars to your truck will give you the edge in seeing off-road obstacles in dark, unlit areas. They’re offered in spot configurations for a long, focused beam and flood configurations for short-range, wide-angle lighting, as well as combinations of both setups. If you’ve been searching for an LED light bar for your truck, you’ve probably encountered dozens of brands and hundreds of models with varying lengths, rows, and lighting power levels. To help you narrow down your choices, take a look at our list of the top five LED light bars for trucks.

Rigid Radiance Plus 30-Inch LED Light Bar

If you’re dipping your toes into the waters of LED lighting for the first time, the Rigid Radiance Plus is a great place to start. It employs a combination spot/flood light pattern and features durable, American-made construction with an aluminum housing and heatsink.

Choose from five different backlight colors to suit your truck’s unique aesthetic. When it’s time to perform, this bar’s GORE pressure equalizing vent and IP68 compliant rating make it able to withstand tons of punishment and thousands of hours of service.

Baja OnX6 50-Inch LED Light Bar

For a heavy-duty LED light bar that can withstand being submerged in up to 9 feet of water, take a look at the Baja OnX6.

Choose from spot, flood, or combo beam patterns and rest assured you’ll have one of the longest-lasting light bars available with almost 50,000 hours of life expectancy.

The light bar is IP69 rated for water resistance and IK10 compliant for mechanical impact resistance. Stainless steel hardware and bracket mounts are included.

Rigid E-Series PRO Black 20-Inch LED Light Bar

Featuring two rows of LEDs in a compact, 20-inch length, this version of the Rigid E-Series is ideal for applications where space is at a premium, including many aftermarket bumpers.

The light has integrated thermal management and a GORE pressure vent to keep it shining brightly even in rough conditions. It’s also RoHS compliant, which make it one of the eco-friendlier offerings among LED light bars.

Havoc Off-Road Black Out Series 50-Inch LED Light Bar

Efficiency is the name of the game with this LED light bar from Havoc. With a life expectancy of over 50,000 hours, you can rely on this light to perform when you need it most.

The blackout plate improves illumination over other designs by 15 percent and the combination spot/flood beam provides plenty of illumination both near your truck and further up the trail. The bar is IP68 rated and backed by a five-year warranty.

Rigid Adapt 40-Inch LED Light Bar

The Rigid Adapt series of LED light bars features some of the most impressive technology on the market today. Chief among these features is the available Active View Technology, which automatically alters your beam pattern to maximize visibility based on your vehicle’s speed.

Even if you don’t use the Active View Technology, you’ll still be able to choose from multiple colors at the touch of a button thanks to user-configurable RGB-W accent lighting and eight selectable beam patterns between 15 and 90 degrees.

The wiring harness is included as is the dash controller, dash module, and mounting hardware.
