TowMate 22 Lime Light Wireless Tow Light Bar - Bright, Simple Safety

In this review the TowMate 22 Lime Light Wireless Tow Light Bar is judged as a straightforward, no-frills tow lighting solution for DIYers and occasional haulers who need bright, plug-free signals. The reviewer found the single biggest reason to buy is its clear, visible LED output combined with a reliable wireless transmitter system that removes the need to splice into vehicle wiring. It is best suited to users who want quick setup, magnetic mounting, and long wireless range without complicated accessories.

Key Features

• Wireless operation: The included 7 pin round transmitter sends stop, turn and tail signals to the light bar so there is no vehicle wiring to install.
• Bright LED array: Fourteen LEDs across the 22 in bar provide high visibility for following drivers day or night.
• Strong mounts: The light bar includes 90LB pull magnets with rubber boots that hold the bar to steel surfaces for simple temporary mounting.
• Long range and run time: The system offers up to a 1000 ft wireless range and about 10 hours between charges for extended use away from power.
• Complete kit: Systems ship with transmitter, light, charge cord, foot covers and instructions so you have everything needed to operate out of the box.
• Lifetime electronics warranty: TowMate covers the electronics and LEDs for life, which reduces ownership risk compared with short warranties.

Who It's For

The TowMate 22 Lime Light is ideal for casual tow users, landscapers, and small-business operators who need a portable, bright tow light they can move between trailers and vehicles without rewiring. Its magnetic mounting and included transmitter make it easy for one-person setups and occasional towing tasks.

It is less suited to users who need an upgradeable system or integration with reminder systems like iMON, or those who require non-magnetic permanent mounts since suction cups are sold separately and the unit is non-upgradeable.
