LED bar Purelux Black Boost C1300 Gen3 127 cm 480 W Ref. 45

Purelux Black Boost C1300 — LED bar, 127 cm, 480 W, Ref. 45

Two power modes in one bar: off the road PowerBoost gives 30 038 lm and 601 m of reach at 1 lux, while the approved mode runs at 12 912 lm and 401 m. A button on the housing switches between them, with no wiring to change.

Purelux publishes the catalogue figures and Valostore adds its own laboratory measurements, separately for both modes. You do not have to take one number on the box on trust: both sets are below, side by side.

Key benefits

• Two power modes - 406.8 W @ 24 V in PowerBoost and 205.9 W @ 24 V in road mode. One bar covers public roads and work off them.
• 601 m of reach at 1 lux - the level at which the eye still picks out an obstacle. Road mode gives 401 m.
• Measured, not just declared - the maker states 40 320 lm, the Valostore measurement is 30 038 lm.
• Osram LEDs - a calculated rating of 480 W.
• 10-30 V DC supply - one version for 12 V and 24 V systems.
• IP69K - rated for high-pressure, high-temperature washing, not just rain.
• bare wires, no connector connector with a 50 cm lead.
• Reference number 45 - the lower it is, the more lamps fit within the permitted total for the vehicle.
• 24 months manufacturer warranty.

Two modes, two sets of figures

The manufacturer states plainly that road approval does not cover PowerBoost mode. Treat it as an off-road mode and check the rules where you drive.

Who it is for

For 4x4s, pickups and expedition builds where the bar has to work every day. At 127.2 cm wide and 5 000 g it fits a typical bull bar or roof bar. Reference number 45 decides how many lamps fit within the permitted total for the vehicle - tell us what is already on the front and we will add it up. Fitting, loom routing and aiming are jobs our workshop in Warsaw does routinely.

Why it is worth it

• One bar for public roads and off them, with no covers to swap.
• Measured figures next to catalogue ones, so comparison is honest.
• IP69K sealing and a bare wires, no connector connector - built for daily use.

Not sure it fits your bull bar? Tell us the vehicle and we will check.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this bar on public roads?

Yes, in the approved mode. The manufacturer states ECE: R10, R148, R149 approval and reference number 45. PowerBoost mode is explicitly outside the road approval.

What is the difference between PowerBoost and road mode?

Power, flux and reach: 406.8 W @ 24 V and 601 m against 205.9 W @ 24 V and 401 m. Everything else stays the same.

Does it work on a 24 V system?

Yes, the supply range is 10-30 V DC.

What connector does the cable use?

Bare wires, no connector, with a 50 cm lead.

What is the warranty?

The manufacturer states 24 months.
