Chasing Ambient Interior Lighting

Get ready for immaculate interior vibes with four new chasing ambient lighting expansion packs designed to seamlessly integrate into any vehicle’s interior.

Chasing LED 12V Power Injectors

Meet the HE-CHASE-PIH, a must-have for anyone looking to amp up their LED installations. This set of four 12-volt power injectors enables you to run Heise LED chasing lighting kits as a single continuous loop around your vehicle. By inserting one power injector every 15 feet or every 16 rock lights, you can enhance your setup while simplifying installation. Designed to work with the entire Heise lighting range - strip lights, rock lights, tube lights, and more - these injectors seamlessly integrate into the Heise Connect Universe (HCU).

Solder-On Adapters

Heise is also introducing new 4-packs of solder-on adapters that empower installers to tailor their LED setups. These adapters make it easy to expand or customize existing installations with your current controller. By simply cutting the connector at the end of an LED strip or in-line cable, soldering the adapter’s connectors, and adding wiring for Y adapters or rock lights, you can create a truly unique setup. Available options include:

Chasing Adapter for HE-CHASE-CB (HE-CHASE-4PT)
Low Voltage Chasing Adapter for HE-CHASELV-CB (HE-CHASELV-4PT)

Also on display are the new accent light covers available in black (HE-RLC-4B) and white (HE-RLC-4W). These 4-packs can be strategically positioned to cast light downward or diffuse brightness when needed. Constructed from high-impact plastic for durability and equipped with stainless steel mounting hardware, these covers easily attach over existing Heise LED rock lights, eliminating the need for extra drilling or modifications.
