Whelen M-Series® M9 Lighthead
The Whelen M9 is the largest lighthead in the M Series®, designed to provide high-output warning and scene illumination for fire apparatus, ambulances, rescue vehicles, commercial fleets, and other public-safety applications. Its large-profile design and Linear Super-LED® optics deliver broad, consistent light coverage suited for primary warning, vehicle perimeter lighting, and scene illumination.
The M9 is available in SOLO™, DUO™, Split-Color, V-Series®, and Scene Light configurations. Compatible warning models feature Dynamic Variable Intensity™ (DVI™) to gradually adjust light output for improved nighttime visibility, while SmartLED® electronics, Scan-Lock™, synchronization, and Steady-Lock® provide flexible control and integration with compatible Whelen systems.
Built for demanding operating environments, the M9 incorporates hard-coated polycarbonate lenses and E Block™ watertight protection on compatible models to help resist moisture, vibration, road chemicals, salt, sunlight, and other environmental exposure. The M9 family also includes dedicated Brake/Tail/Turn, turn-signal, back-up, scene-light, and EZ Scene Light™ models, allowing matching lightheads to be used throughout a complete vehicle build.
