CLEAR GLASS lens forthe WORK LIGHT - IR Light housing

Post by DDTrustee » Sat Sep 11, 2021 8:54 am

The IR light housing is used in Chenowth Fast Attack Vehicles for a headlight housings.....BUT when you use an IRA light and remove the IR lens there ia large gap....I need to know where to obtain a CLEAR LENS cover that would replace the IR lens cover.....
I know these housing are also used as WORK LIGHTS...anyone have info on how to make that FIX????
Or where to buy a lens cover that will fit the 4 1/2" lights?????
You will know what I am looking for from the picture.....a clear one of the black IRA lens cover.

There is a similar part number for the lamp that comes with both clear and IR lens. I can't find it right now. You could PM 86humv on here and see if he has any. The bulb inside is a sealed beam, but it doesn't look good with that gap. I don't know how well these will work for headlights. The housings wobble quite a bit due to the rubber in the mount.

The housing for the clear and IR lens is the same...the glass is the same size on both types.

Could also use an oil filter gasket (mil standard Jr size) or old diesel truck stop where they change oil filters out...? or "O" ring from hardware store plumbing assortment box (I bought a soft rubber toilet plunger once to cut the edge out and make a ring to fit my sand blaster pressure tank once) to fill the gap and use the old rim.
Thoughts.

Isn't the 4440 a 12v bulb?
Is your FAV 12v or 24v ?If you need the 24v number, I can pop one out tomorrow.

11589477-1 is the entire lamp with clear lens.
11589477-2 is the entire lamp with IR lens.

24v bulb is 4811 .It is $13 shipped on epay.

But it looks like Greg has you covered for the clear lenses.

I got 4440 lamps for 12 volts - for the Chenowth FAV headlights.....found out the IR lens cover is great for watching the solar eclipse!!!!!
Painting all my headlight buckets "sand"; my FAVs were that color coming out of the military..... Sandia Army Base. Green is a 'hot' color in the southwest -will burn you at 2 p.m. on a sunny summer day in the desert.
