You&#8217;re there, you&#8217;re done, everything is ready to go once the sun comes up. But that means heading out in the inky blackness of the wilderness, where street lamps aren&#8217;t a thing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And while headlight technology for side-by-sides has come a long way from what could only be compared to old-fashioned gas lamps when they first hit the scene, accessory lighting is basically still required if you&#8217;re going to see anything past 35 yards. Which you want to do, especially given the rutted out off-road trails with sharp edge drops that litter western trails.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hell, even East Coast drivers benefit from them, as black bears and trees can sometimes jump out at you.

Don&#8217;t even get me started on how often folks hit those in the dark.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As such, there are a ton of accessory lighting options available to you, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rideapart.com\/news\/716482\/kc-hilites-gravity-titan-light-pod-lightbar\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"0\" data-params=\"%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22716482%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22kc-hilites-gravity-titan-light-pod-lightbar%22%7D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from a host of manufacturers<\/a>.

First and foremost, customers can choose between a\u00a05-inch Phoenix pod, a 7-inch Phoenix XL pod, as well as the modular Phoenix Connect, which basically turns them into a pre-wired lightbar spanning either 30, 40, or 50 inches. Perfect for either truck or side-by-side applications.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, you have the option for two different lumen intensities, with the standard Phoenix pods pushing 10,167 lumens, while the Phoenix XL&#8217;s throwing 14,290 lumens. That said, the pre-wired Phoenix Connect lightbar uses the 5-inch Phoenix pods as the base, not the XLs. But there&#8217;s even more adaptability built in.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"Rigid Industries Phoenix Off-Road Side-by-Side Lights\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Rigid Industries Phoenix Off-Road Side-by-Side Lights<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Rigid Industries<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"Rigid Industries Phoenix Off-Road Side-by-Side Lights\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Rigid Industries Phoenix Off-Road Side-by-Side Lights<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Rigid Industries<\/p>\n<p>Photos by: Rigid Industries<\/p>\n<p>The Phoenix lights are also introducing the brand&#8217;s first five-mode color system, which lets the driver switch the lights&#8217; color temperature with the push of a button, going from white to amber, and letting you cut through the dust and sand and dirt kicked up on the trail. Furthermore, you&#8217;ll have access to three different light power settings, so you can choose how much you illuminate the trail ahead, too. And while the standard lens is a spot beam, Rigid will offer an optional drive or combo lens.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, I don&#8217;t have much info to go on other than they&#8217;ll become available next year. What I do know is that based on the above information I got from Rigid, these look to be one of the most adaptable off-road lights around, and I really want to test their versatility sometime next year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"comfort-title-large flex gap-spacing-sm-base items-center\">\n<p>\t\tWe want your opinion!\n\t<\/p>\n<p>What would you like to see on Rideapart.com?<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rideapart.com\/survey\/2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tTake our 3 minute survey.\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"compact-body-medium\">&#8211; The RideApart Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Personally, when I&#8217;m taking my side-by-side camping, hunting, or off on a long weekend&#8217;s adventure, I like going&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":417483,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5131],"tags":[195568,5229,5643,1587,168252,195570,117077,195569,195567,1589,195565,4360,195564,195566,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-417482","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-phoenix","8":"tag-adjustable-lighting","9":"tag-america","10":"tag-arizona","11":"tag-az","12":"tag-b2c","13":"tag-color-temperature","14":"tag-gear-news","15":"tag-lumens","16":"tag-offroad-capable","17":"tag-phoenix","18":"tag-phoenix-lights","19":"tag-preview","20":"tag-rigid-industries","21":"tag-side-by-side","22":"tag-united-states","23":"tag-united-states-of-america","24":"tag-unitedstates","25":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","26":"tag-us","27":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115645077574535562","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/417482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=417482"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/417482\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/417483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=417482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=417482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=417482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
