Feniex Cobra 49'' and Apollo 49'' Lightbar

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

Feniex announced to their dealers today they will be releasing the Feniex Cobra 49'' and Apollo 49'' lightbars in 2015.

This bar will have a one piece molded top cover with an aluminum base.  It resembles the Apollo Mini bar that has been leaked already.  The solid molded top prevents the dome/lense from having any light blockage. It will have a black metal top molded in (that can be special ordered gray). The dome can also be completely colored, but not dual or multicolored as it is injection molded in the color of choice.

The bar can be depopulated for cost effectiveness.

They will eventually release a 60'' bar later in the 2015 year.

Pricing and pictures will come later.

Teaser gone

What happened to the teaser pic? I'm definitely curious to see what direction Feniex is moving. Will the introduction of these new lightbars mean the demise of the Avatar? I think it would benefit Feniex to move away from the Avatar and its nearly identical resemblence to 911 Signal's bar.

Why? 911ep doesn't provide them with any competition and the avatar doesn't have nearly as much complaints as 911ep bars like the galaxy. The avatar doesn't have much competition on the slim lightbar either b/c the tomar and whelen equivalents are not in the same price range for a fully-populated unit

Gotcha. Well, I don't think feniex has to worry about 911 signal KO bars dominating the market

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

Agreed. Usually only simple minded or those not familiar with the lighting brands confuse the avatar with the 911 signals. Build quality alone is light years apart

I'm not even sure how you got 911EP from 911 SIGNAL, but yeah, 911EP has been gone for years (though Sound Off owns them and some of their current bars have 911EP influence, So I suppose you can kind of say 911EP provides competition)

It sounds like the Avatar will remain in service until they see how the new bars handle in the market.  The Avatar has a place with the larger bars, too as the new bar will only initially be available in a 49" bar.

What's the difference between the Avatar and the Cobra Exterior Lightbar? Are they not using the same modules?

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

They will use the same modules. I'm assuming it will slightly thicker and utilize the dome over style instead of building the modules into an aluminum frame. Further technical info has not bee. Released as it's slated release is still far away
