Is there any place that this is legal? I ran across this description of some light made for the rear of a vehicle. Maybe it's legal in China where they're made.

Each light has 10 PCS high-quality SMD LEDs to output super bright white light, high brightness for Reverse/Back Up light, low brightness for Taillight, improving visibility and ensuring you a safer night

Unless the truck is in reverse it's illegal here in Utah.

LED's can change color depending on the input signal.

I have white "turn signals" on my motorcycle that turn amber when the actual turn signal is engaged. They're basic white running lights until I hit the switch, then they flash amber.

Could be situation with these - hit the brakes, you get a brake light, hit reverse, bright white back up etc.

Federal law dictates vehicle lighting. Those would be illegal for driving lights. There's a guy around here who's headlights on his jeep have a red led ring around them. At dusk it appears from a distance that he's traveling away from you instead of towards you. Can't wait to see him get stopped by LE.

Looks like backup lights.

Read the quote in the OP. They're 2 stage, bright for backup, dim for tail lights.

I saw that. Guessing they are intended to have red lenses if tails.
