About PROJECT X Offroad

PROJECT X is a California-based off-road accessories brand founded in 2020 and headquartered in Costa Mesa, California. PROJECT X entered the market with a clear mission: to break away from stale, conventional product design and introduce genuinely next-generation technology to the off-road world. Rather than simply building another lighting company, PROJECT X set out to architect a fully connected smart-vehicle ecosystem — one where lights, power management, and accessories communicate seamlessly through a single app-controlled platform.

Innovation at the Core

The brand is part of the Horizon Brands family, a global automotive technology group with over three decades of product design and manufacturing experience. That heritage shows in PROJECT X's engineering philosophy. Their proprietary Ghost Box wireless accessory control system lets enthusiasts add and manage up to 24 modules, creating a wirelessly controlled network of 12V accessories — from auxiliary lights and rock lights to portable refrigerators — all operated from a smartphone app. The Ghost Box also offers low-voltage cutoff protection and custom timer functions, keeping your battery healthy no matter how remote the trail gets.

At the heart of the PROJECT X lighting lineup is Osram LED technology, chosen for its exceptional output and longevity. The Series X HP auxiliary lights, for example, feature an integrated Active Thermal Management System (ATMS) that allows the lights to run at full power for extended periods without thermal throttling. Every PROJECT X driving light also carries a lifetime warranty on construction and workmanship — a testament to how seriously the brand stands behind its products in real-world extreme conditions.

Race-Proven Performance

PROJECT X wasted no time proving its products in competition. The brand partnered with the Fun-Haver Off-Road Team, putting its lighting and power systems on the race trucks of Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Loren Healy at events like King of the Hammers. That real-world feedback loop — from desert racing and rock crawling to high-speed chase truck duty — directly influences product development. PROJECT X has since been named the Official Lighting Partner of Ultra4 USA, further cementing its reputation in the world's most demanding off-road racing series.

A Complete Off-Road Ecosystem

PROJECT X products span a growing range of categories designed to work together. Their headlight sets, including the ELITE OPTX line with integrated cameras, redefine what a headlight can do — combining powerful LED illumination with onboard trail recording capability for 7-inch round headlight applications. Their battery power distribution boxes form the backbone of any smart wiring setup, allowing enthusiasts to cleanly and safely power multiple accessories without the rats-nest of traditional wiring. And for keeping gear organized on the trail, PROJECT X also offers carry bags sized to protect and transport their lighting hardware. Whether you're building a dedicated race truck or simply upgrading your weekend overlander, PROJECT X offers a coherent, technology-forward solution for the entire electrical and lighting system.
