After months of anticipation since their unveiling at SEMA 2024, the all-new Diode Dynamics Stage Series LED Lightbars are officially here. Reengineered from the ground up, these LED lightbars deliver more power, more control, and more configurability than ever before. Designed, engineered, and assembled in the USA, they set a new benchmark for LED lightbar performance in off-road and utility applications.

Reengineered for Maximum Performance
The new Stage Series LED lightbars were built from scratch with one goal: to outperform other LED lightbars on the market in real-world use. At their core are our patented Total Internal Reflection (TIR) optics, designed to capture and focus nearly all the light from each LED, projecting usable output exactly where it is needed with minimal glare or wasted light.
Every component has been upgraded for higher output and sustained performance. From automotive-grade LED emitters to copper circuit boards on Pro and Max models, each Stage Series LED lightbar is engineered to deliver consistent brightness, efficiency, and long-term reliability.
The result is massive real-world output. The flagship SS50 Pro Spot LED lightbar produces over 1 million candela, projecting light more than 1.25 miles downrange at 0.25 lux. Combined with efficient optics and direct thermal management, Stage Series LED lightbars deliver both intensity and durability for serious off-road use.
SmartSelect and Backlight Functionality
The Stage Series LED lightbar lineup is available in two versions: Standard and SmartSelect. Both versions share the same high-output optics and rugged construction, but SmartSelect adds advanced control features.
SmartSelect LED lightbars feature a selectable multicolor backlight with eight color options, including a dedicated true amber LED, along with a dynamic startup sequence when powered on. On SS30 and larger models, SmartSelect also enables main beam section control, allowing you to activate inner sections, outer sections, or the full LED lightbar without additional wiring or switches.
The Standard LED lightbar option offers a clean, amber-only backlight for a streamlined OEM+ appearance. Whether you want simple functionality or advanced control, there is a Stage Series LED lightbar built to match your setup.
Configurable, Linkable, and Fully Modular
Stage Series LED lightbars are designed for flexibility across a wide range of vehicles and mounting locations. SS10 and SS20 models are linkable using CrossLink technology, allowing multiple LED lightbars to be combined into one seamless system, including curved configurations. For custom builds, these LED lightbars can also link with C2 2.0 and C2R LED pods to create fully integrated lighting solutions.
All Stage Series LED lightbars use 6000K white emitters, with final output color controlled entirely by the lens. Switching from white to selective yellow is as simple as changing the lens, with no need to replace LEDs.
Snap-on lens covers are also available for added protection and quick visual changes. Offered in multiple colors including True Amber, these covers install without tools and make it easy to adapt your LED lightbar to different conditions.
Power Levels and Options
Each Stage Series LED lightbar is available in multiple power levels: Sport, Pro, and Max, with Max offered on the SS10.
Sport delivers strong LED lightbar performance with excellent efficiency for daily-driven and weekend builds.
Pro increases output with copper PCBs for improved thermal performance and sustained brightness.
Max uses the same Osram HX Boost LEDs found in our highest-output Stage Series pods, delivering extreme intensity from a compact LED lightbar.
Every Stage Series LED lightbar operates on a 9–30V electrical system, ensuring compatibility with everything from daily drivers to off-road vehicles and work trucks.
Built to Handle Anything
Durability is central to every Diode Dynamics LED lightbar. Each housing features aluminum construction, pin-fin heatsinks for effective cooling, and a rugged ASTM-standard powdercoat finish, providing long-term protection in demanding environments.
Every LED lightbar is sealed to an IP69K waterproof rating, capable of withstanding high-pressure washing, mud, dust, and rain. From high-speed desert runs to slow technical trails, Stage Series LED lightbars are built to perform.
All Diode Dynamics LED lightbars are backed by a limited lifetime warranty and supported by a U.S.-based team in St. Louis, Missouri.
Beam Patterns for Every Application
Stage Series LED lightbars are available in multiple beam patterns to match different driving environments:
Spot: A focused 8-degree beam for maximum distance and long-range visibility.
SAE Driving: A balanced 20×12 beam that provides strong forward output with added width.
Flood: A wide 70×60 beam for illuminating campsites, work areas, or close-range terrain.
Combo/Driving: A uniform beam pattern combining width and distance for versatile LED lightbar performance.
On SS30 and larger models, SmartSelect functionality allows control of inner and outer beam sections, making it easy to adapt LED lightbar output to changing conditions.
The New Standard in Off-Road Lighting
With higher output, smarter control, and unmatched flexibility, Stage Series LED lightbars set a new standard for what an LED lightbar can deliver.
Whether you are racing across open desert, navigating technical trails, or lighting up a job site, these LED lightbars provide the power and control needed for real-world use, engineered, assembled, and tested in the USA.
The wait is over. Power and control are here.
