Freedom® V
The Freedom V Lightbar is designed to deliver next-level visibility and control for all types of fleet vehicles, including fire trucks, police vehicles, ambulances, tow trucks, DOT vehicles, and amber warning fleets. Featuring groundbreaking FocusBeam™ Technology, Freedom V transforms raw LED output into highly focused, precisely angled beams that cut through distance, weather, bright sunlight, and visual clutter, helping drivers recognize warning signals sooner. Its universal lightheads and configurable design allow fleets to mix SOLO™, DUO™, and TRIO™ lightheads to create custom 360° coverage, providing consistent high-intensity output across all colors and functions. Seamlessly integrated with Whelen Core® control systems, Freedom V offers fleets advanced lighting control, adaptability, and reliability, making it the ideal solution for enhancing visibility, safety, and operational efficiency in emergency response, law enforcement, roadway safety, and fleet management applications.
Features
- FocusBeam™ Technology: Whelen’s groundbreaking optic design that converts raw LED output into highly focused, precisely angled beams for maximum visibility in all environments
- High-Intensity Output: Powerful light that delivers consistent visibility across all colors and functions
- Universal Lightheads: Multi-purpose design eliminates the need for dedicated takedown or alley lights
- Customizable 360° Coverage: Mix SOLO™, DUO™, and TRIO™ lightheads to configure the bar for full-circle visibility across your fleet
