ORACLE Lighting to Unveil Groundbreaking Vega 7 Off-Road LED Pod Light at 2025 SEMA Show

Las Vegas, NV — [November 21st, 2025] — ORACLE Lighting, an award-winning leader in automotive LED solutions, is proud to announce the debut of its latest innovation: the Vega 7 High-Performance Off-Road LED Light, launching November 3rd at the 2025 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Designed to outperform industry benchmarks the Vega 7 offers cutting-edge technology, exceptional durability, and unmatched value. The product will be showcased at SEMA Booth #57147 in the West Hall, alongside ORACLE Lighting’s growing portfolio of high-performance lighting solutions.

Next-Generation Lighting Performance. The Vega 7 is available in two high performance configurations: LED+LED and LED+Laser. Engineered from the ground up, the Vega 7 Laser delivers over a staggering 676,900 candela, and a projection distance of 840 meters (2,755 Feet), outshining competitors such as the LP6 in both raw output and distance (by over 2 football fields) in lab tested performance.

“The goal with Vega wasn’t just to compete—it was to lead,” said Justin Hartenstein, Founder and Director of Product Development at ORACLE Lighting. “By pushing more current to the LEDs and integrating active thermal management, we’ve created a system that delivers massive light output without sacrificing reliability.”

Innovation That Performs. Unlike traditional designs that rely solely on passive heat dissipation, the Vega 7 features Active Cooling through an integrated high-efficiency fan, circulating air through specially designed rear cooling fins. This ensures that the LEDs operate within optimal temperature ranges even under sustained high-load conditions maximizing performance and extending component life.

Notable Features Include:

• OSRAM BOOST-HX LED chips for high-lumen output

• IP69K Ingress Protection Rating for extreme weather resistance

• Deutsch DT06-4S connectors for secure, OE-level connectivity

• Amber Side Position Lights for enhanced visibility and styling

Inspired by the Stars. Named after the luminous star Vega—one of the most important celestial references in modern astronomy—the Vega 7 light embodies performance, precision, and forward-looking design. “Just as the star Vega has helped navigators and scientists find their way, the Vega 7 is designed to light your path through the most challenging terrains,” Hartenstein added.

Built to Outshine, Priced to Win. With a focus on delivering the best value in the off-road lighting market, the Vega 7 offers premium-grade performance at a more accessible price point than comparable lights. It’s built for enthusiasts who demand the best—without paying more than they should.

The new Vega 7 will be on display at the ORACLE Lighting booth (#57147, West Hall) throughout the 2025 SEMA Show.

MJMERAM8D1V3 – Serious Bass For Ram Trucks

Memphis expanded its truck enclosure lineup with the introduction of the new MJMERAM8D1V3, a dual 8” Mini MOJO enclosure engineered specifically for 2002–2018 Ram Crew Cab trucks.
