At Lenco, mission success isn’t just about armor—it’s about awareness. Whether it’s rolling into a chaotic scene or maintaining visibility during low-light operations, proper lighting can be the difference between safety and vulnerability. That’s why our BearCat platforms offer customizable exterior and interior lighting options, engineered to give teams unmatched control, visibility, and confidence in any environment.
Here’s a look at how Lenco’s exterior lighting options are built to support tactical readiness, officer safety, and operational flexibility:
- High Intensity Driving Lights (BCHIDL) are seamlessly built into the front bumper and allow the operator to black out the vehicle while still maintaining directional visibility—ideal for covert or low-profile night operations.
- Intersection Lights—available in both Front Bumper (BCBIL) and Fender (BCFIL) configurations—provide critical side illumination and warning light coverage during response. These lights alert pedestrians and traffic at intersections or during approach, and are fully customizable in color based on department specifications.
- The VSP Low Profile & Scene Lighting (BCVSPL) setup features a combination of emergency and scene lights above the windshield and on the sides of the vehicle. These provide widespread illumination without compromising the BearCat’s low-profile design.
- Integrated Side Area Lights (BCSAL) include 4 lights on each side of the BearCat that are color configurable. Controlled independently from the driver’s panel, they’re perfect for area scanning, nighttime activity, or perimeter lighting.
- Roof-Mounted Remote Control Spotlights (BCSLLED) allow up to four individually rotatable LED units, capable of 370° horizontal and 135° vertical movement—controlled from inside the cab using a joystick. For added durability, the Go Light Protective Cage (BCGLC) ensures these spotlights stay protected in the field.
- Roof-Mounted Alley Lighting (BCRMAL) can be positioned on all four sides of the truck—front, rear, driver, and passenger sides—giving operators flexible lighting configurations based on the mission.
- Take Down Lights (BCTDL) and Take Down Lights with Infrared (BCTDL–IR) mount directly on the front bumper. While the standard LED setup provides intense forward-facing illumination, the IR option integrates white light and infrared technology to detect movement in low-light environments.
Built to Your Specs, Controlled from the Cab
Each lighting system is operable from within the BearCat’s cab, using intuitive rocker switch panels or joystick control. Many features can be customized to agency needs—from light colors and mounting locations to infrared capabilities—ensuring the lighting setup is as mission-specific as the vehicle itself.
