Technical tidbits

From LED lighting technology, to male pin lighting/harness applications, to multiplexing issues - today’s technology means that the end user should be able to design lower costs and longer life and product quality into all lighting and harness uses. However, most fleets state that electrical and lighting problems are the source of their most constant problems, and costly. Regardless of an end user’s size, vehicle safety lighting, wiring, and electrical system can be major sources of frequent failure and high maintenance costs.

Part of our mission and customer goal is to provide problem solutions and not simply product. Together the industry, lead by Grote, has collaborated over the last decade to reposition the future in industry lighting and help control costs and downtime for end users. There is a general identification of eight basic causes of those system failures of safety lighting products, and below you will find them defined.

Given our mission of solving problems in the market, it is key to have an understanding of these causes in general terms and the keys to solving the problems and offering a total vehicle system solution.

It is about saving time, money and providing industry solutions that will lead systems design into the next century.
