Diode Dynamics SSC1 SAE/DOT Pods

Overview

Introducing the Stage Series C1 SAE/DOT Fog LED Pod! Featuring custom-engineered TIR optics combined with the newest LED chip technology, these pods deliver road-legal light output, in our most compact, versatile package yet. The SSC1 can be mounted virtually anywhere on your car, truck, motorcycle, or UTV, including spots where larger LED pods won’t fit. 

Focused. Traditional optics like reflectors or simple lenses lose light internally and to glare, so not all of the light shines on target. Instead, the custom-engineered TIR optic in the Stage Series C1 collects all of the light from the LED, and directs it only where you need it, drastically reducing glare and improving total efficiency.

From there, while other options on the market lose as much as 10% of the light output shining through an outer lens, the custom-molded TIR optic in the Stage Series C1 serves as both the optic and main lens for greater efficiency and light output (patent pending). Thanks to this innovative feature, when coupled with the brand new Osram HX Boost 20-watt LED chip, the total intensity of the SSC1 is much greater than other LED pods using basic optics or reflectors with a standard outer lens.

Functional Output. The SSC1 SAE Fog was designed with optical simulation modeling, to create a highly effective and road-legal fog light pattern. With just one LED, the SSC1 is the smallest aftermarket fog lamp on the market!

SAE Fog provides an extremely wide field of view, with high-intensity output over an entire 98-degree spread. It meets the SAE J583 standard as a Foglamp, for legal on-road use and will fully illuminate the area in front of your vehicle. Choose your output color of cool white or yellow, which is often said to help cut through inclement weather.

White or Yellow. All Stage Series LED pods are available in a cool white or selective yellow color. The white is a 6000K color temperature, which is a true cool white output, and matches most factory LED lighting. The selective yellow is a 3000K color temperature, great for high contrast in poor weather or a distinctive look on the road. 

Mount Anywhere. Put the C1 LED Pod anywhere you’d like, with Standard or Flush-mount configurations. You can even mount to any standard GoPro-style mounting point, with our mounting adapter kit!

Backlight Functionality. The Stage Series C1 LED Pod includes a distinctive backlight feature, in your choice of white or amber. The SSC1’s backlight fully illuminates the TIR optic, providing unique accent lighting that you won’t find in other single-LED pods on the market. This allows you to double the functionality of your setup, by adding an accent light as well as a main beam!

Interchangeable Lens. Need a different beam pattern or color? You can swap it yourself! We offer replacement lenses that allow you to change the color or optic of your Stage Series C1 Pods.

Simple connections. All Stage Series C1 LED pods feature a custom-molded DT type Deutsch-style connector on the back, and come with a 6-inch pigtail with bare leads. For installation, you can wire yourself, use an off-the-shelf Deutsch DT-sized wire harness, or select an optional Diode Dynamics wire harness. Our Light Duty Dual Output 4-Pin Harness can be used to power up to four SSC1 pods.

Proven Reliability. Stage Series LED lighting has been extensively tested for long-term operation from -40 to 185 degrees F, along with vibration, moisture intrusion, and corrosion testing. All of these tests are completed to SAE standards, just like factory components. They’ve also been put to the test on-road by racers and enthusiasts alike.

Snap-On Covers. We offer snap-on covers for your Stage Series C1 Pods. These covers are available in a variety of colors and keep your SSC1 Pod clean and protected from dirt, dust, or whatever else the road throws your way! Please check your local laws and regulations for aiming, installation, and applicability.
