Looking for a Left Handgrip Auxillary Light Multi-Purpose Switch

[npj1966]

I have searched high and low looking a Left Hand grip Auxiliary Light Multi-Purpose Switch that will compliment a Rigid 6" combo LED light (Rigid Industries 90631 SR-Series White 6" Spot/Flood Combo LED Light Bar). Looking for a switch that will 3 functions (4 if you include Off):

- flood
-spot
-combine both
-Off

This is my first post so please be gentle...

Does their wiring even support that?

There I go assuming again.... I assumed that it was a combo light and could be configured that way. Good heads up and I will contact Rigid.

Yea, I'm gonna take the bait and ask what you are doing, mine is either On or Off.

I am looking to be able to (1) use flood when night riding for more left to right field of view, (2) use spot when I want a longer range high beam and (3) use both flood/spot to light up a bocce game in my yard. I sent an email request to Rigid to see if it is wired up like this, I hope it is...

Just buy two sets of lights and run one from one pole and
the other from the other pole of the switch.

Hey PTER,

This is right up my alley... just waiting to hear from Rigid to see if the combo light has separate wires for flood and spot.

I understand that the Rigid Industries light bar you mention only has one lead (Rigid Industries 90631 SR-Series White 6" Spot/Flood Combo LED Light Bar).

So when switched on you can only get the combo.


Making up a gang of separate light pods like these 4 from Twisted Throttle (6 would fit) and would allow mixing and matching of spot and flood patterns though that would be with 2 switches.


I run 4 large LEDs on one switch and the 4 smaller Twisted Throttle LEDs on another switch, with both switches on the left bar.


All of the lights are run through the high beam only as is the law where I'm from, so I can have:
- low beam only
- high beam plus small LEDs (read FLOODS in your case)
- high beam plus large LEDs (read SPOTS)
- high beam plus all 8 LED lights (read FLOODS and SPOTS)

Just buy two sets of lights and run one from one pole and
the other from the other pole of the switch.

Do you mean a 3 position rocker switch: on/off/on.



That gives eg: flood/off/spot

No way to get flood and spot available both simultaneously and separately as OP requested with that kind of switch unless tricky diodes are used and even then it would be eg: flood/off/combo

Thanks for your input(s) on this endeavor. Rigid Industries never did get back to me on this so I thank you for the options. I think I may hold off at this point as I liked the compact design of the Rigid 6" bar and the look it has on the bike. And I think I found the Switch I would eventually use from PMR Components. Thanks again folks!
