KC Lights the Way with New FLEX ERA 4

February 12, 2021

WILLIAMS, Ariz. (February 12, 2021) KC, one of the pioneering names in off-road adventure, is pleased to introduce the FLEX ERA 4, a brighter, tougher and stronger compact light pod featuring four high-density CREE LED’s emitting nearly 8,000 lumens with a unique internal amber backlight.

Maintaining the design aesthetic that made the FLEX series a favorite among off-roaders, the FLEX ERA 4 features a multi-slide, die-cast aluminum construction that improves thermal efficiency while reducing weight. The FLEX ERA 4 has interchangeable bezels, offers a spot and a combo beam pattern, and comes with both clear and amber covers. The light also includes a unique amber backlight, which can be independently engaged outside of the main light. With an IP68 water and dustproof rating, and backed by the KC Adventure Further Guarantee, the FLEX ERA 4 is ready to take on any adventure.

“We’re using over 50 years of experience to create this FLEX ERA line,” said KC CEO, Alan Wang. “The FLEX ERA 4 features the uncompromising and forward-thinking design approach KC is known for. I’m really excited about the future of KC and this is just the start of much more to come.”

In the midst of the pandemic, rather than reducing resources or pulling back, KC has doubled down on an aggressive product roadmap to ensure its relevancy and continued growth for years to come.

“We are definitely not the same lighting company your father may remember, but we still have the same heart and family-based approach that makes KC the choice of some of the baddest off-road racers in the world”, said Ali Sedaghat, Director of Brand Marketing for KC. “Pushing the limits of LED technology KC has produced some well-known industry firsts such as the first truly linkable PRO-6 lightbar with the infinity ring system, the original interchangeable and linkable FLEX series, and our beloved line of Cyclone accessory lights.”
