The X6 is a compact LED warning light head built around a specially designed TIR (total internal reflection) lens, giving a 180 degree viewing angle from a very slim housing. Six 3W CREE LEDs (18W total) sit behind the lens. It suits traffic control, civil, utility and fleet vehicles, plant and machinery, and is supplied as a single fixed colour per unit: amber, white, red or blue, selected at purchase.

The X6 surface-mounts through two fixing holes in the base and is commonly fitted to wing mirror housings, guards, bull bars and headboard rails on flat or curved surfaces. It fixes to a metal mounting bracket for standard front mounting; the bracket can be removed to mount from the rear instead, using the rear screw points this exposes, where front access isn't practical. Confirm mounting hardware and wiring with your auto electrician for your specific vehicle and application.

Output runs across 19 flash patterns through the TIR lens, and the head accepts 10 to 30V DC, covering 12V and 24V vehicles and plant with the one part.

Wiring runs on four cores: red for +12-24V DC power, black for ground, yellow for synchronisation and pattern selection, and white for simultaneous or alternating flash. Two X6 heads can be wired together through the yellow and white wires to flash in sync or alternate against each other, useful for matched pairs such as left and right mirror mounts. Wiring should be carried out by a qualified auto electrician.

The housing is rugged and sealed to IP67 for exposed mounting and washdown conditions, with a breathable membrane behind the lens to help manage internal pressure and moisture.

Supplied product data lists SAE J845 Class 1 and ECE R65 XA XB1 for the X6. Vehicle lighting requirements vary by vehicle type, registration category and jurisdiction, so confirm the requirements that apply to your vehicle and use.

The X6 is a related product to the F3 9W mini LED warning light head, also from 911 Signal - the F3 is the smaller 3-LED, 9W version for tighter mounting spaces such as grilles and rear windows, while the X6 is the larger 6-LED, 18W version for a wider viewing angle.

For a head that can switch between two colours from the one unit, see the U32-3AW dual colour warning light head. For UAGS-branded single colour heads with a wider mounting face, see the U30-6, U30-12A and U31 light heads.

X6 Warning Light Head FAQs

Will it run on my 24V truck?

Yes. The 10 to 30V DC input covers 12V and 24V vehicles and plant with the same unit.

Can one head show more than one colour?

No. Each X6 is a single fixed colour, chosen at purchase from amber, white, red or blue. For a head that switches between two colours from the one unit, see the U32-3AW dual colour warning light head.

Is this suitable for mounting on a mirror or guard?

Yes. The compact base is designed for surface mounting on flat or curved surfaces such as wing mirror housings, bull bars, guards and headboard rails, fixed through the two mounting holes in the base.

Can this be mounted from the rear?

Yes. The X6 fixes to a metal mounting bracket for standard front mounting, but the bracket can be removed to mount from the rear instead, using the rear screw points this exposes, where front access isn't practical.

Can I wire two X6 heads to flash together?

Yes. The X6 uses a 4-wire setup: red and black for power and ground, plus yellow and white. Connecting the yellow wires between two heads syncs their flash pattern, and the white wires set them to flash simultaneously or alternately, useful for matched pairs such as left and right mirror mounts. Wiring should be carried out by a qualified auto electrician.

How do I reset the flash pattern back to default?

Hold the yellow wire against the red wire for more than 3 seconds. This resets the unit back to its default Random pattern.

What does the TIR lens do?

The specially designed TIR lens spreads output across a 180 degree viewing angle from the compact housing, rather than a narrow beam.

How is this different from the F3 head?

The F3 is the smaller head in the same 911 Signal range: 3 LEDs, 9W and an ultra-thin 13mm profile built for tight spaces such as grilles and rear windows. The X6 is the larger 6-LED, 18W version with a wider viewing angle.

How is this different from the U30 and U31 heads?

The X6 is a smaller, 90mm micro-profile head from 911 Signal, available in four individual colours. The U30-6, U30-12A and U31 are UAGS-branded heads with a wider mounting face and their own colour and pattern options.

Does fitting this light make my vehicle compliant?

The light itself meets SAE J845 Class 1 performance criteria with ECE R65 XA XB1 as supplied. Vehicle lighting requirements vary by vehicle type, registration category and jurisdiction, so confirm the requirements that apply to your vehicle and use.
