Denali Electronics: The company was founded in 2012 with the introduction of an innovative LED lighting kit, purpose-built for the then under-served powersports market.

In the years since, our passion for innovation and vehicle integration enabled us to develop best-in-class LED lights, horns and smart controllers with proprietary features and seamless integration into ATVs, Side X Sides and motorcycles." In 2022, Denali officially joined forces with U.S. manufacturer Vison X Lighting and parent company Brown & Watson International with its manufacturing in USA, Australia and Korea.
