Overview
Transform your Traxxas Mini Maxx into a show-stopping RC car with the complete LED light kit from Traxxas. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast running your Mini Maxx at night or a weekend basher looking to add genuine street-style lighting to your vehicle, this professional-grade lighting system delivers authentic automotive-style illumination with factory-quality fit and finish. The Traxxas LED light kit for Mini Maxx is engineered to the same exacting standards that make Traxxas the most recognised and trusted name in RC vehicles across the UK and worldwide. If you're serious about your RC car UK setup and want lighting that matches the quality of your vehicle, this is the accessory you've been searching for.
Built with Traxxas Tough™ engineering principles, this complete lighting kit isn't just about aesthetics—it's about extending your RC driving sessions into the evening hours with reliable, consistent illumination. The system features a sophisticated approach to LED lighting that includes both forward-facing white lights and rear-facing red lights, mirroring the design language of real vehicles. This isn't a cheap add-on; it's a premium accessory designed by the engineers who built your Mini Maxx, ensuring perfect integration and reliable operation whether you're bashing in your garden or running at a local RC track.
Installation is straightforward thanks to factory-fitted bumpers and skid plates that attach securely to your Mini Maxx chassis. The included 3-volt regulated power supply ensures your lights stay bright and flicker-free from the moment you start your first run until the battery is exhausted. With full waterproof protection, you can take your illuminated Mini Maxx through wet grass, puddles, and challenging terrain without worrying about electrical failures.
Key Features
- Front and rear bumpers with pre-installed white LED light bars — These replacement bumpers come with white forward-facing LEDs already integrated, providing bright forward illumination that cuts through darkness and makes your RC car visible to others. The bumpers are engineered for perfect fit and finish on your Mini Maxx, replacing the standard bumpers to create an integrated lighting design.
- Rear-facing red LED lights on bumpers — The rear bumper incorporates red LEDs that face backwards, following real-world automotive lighting conventions and improving safety by making your RC car visible from behind. This is particularly important when running at dusk or in low-light conditions where other users or spectators might be nearby.
- Roof skid plate with dual-colour LED lighting — The included roof-mounted skid plate features white lights in the front section and red lights in the rear, significantly enhancing rear visibility from elevated angles. This elevated lighting position ensures your Mini Maxx is visible from above and from further distances, perfect for nighttime RC bashing sessions.
- 3-volt tightly-regulated power supply — The included power supply delivers consistent voltage that prevents the flickering and dimming issues common with cheaper lighting kits. This regulated system maintains steady, bright illumination throughout your entire driving session, from start to finish, without fluctuation as your battery voltage naturally decreases.
- Fully waterproof system design — Every component of this lighting kit is engineered to withstand water exposure, allowing you to keep pace with your wildest adventures without concern. Whether you're crossing wet grass, driving through rain, or splashing through puddles, the waterproof construction keeps your lights functioning reliably.
- Factory fit and finish installation — The bumpers and skid plate come pre-fitted with all LED components and are designed to integrate seamlessly with your Mini Maxx chassis, requiring no soldering or complex modifications. This factory-quality approach means you get professional results without needing advanced technical skills or specialist tools.
- Complete installation hardware included — Everything you need to install the kit comes in the box, from brackets to fasteners to the power tap connector with cable. Traxxas provides a complete solution so you're not hunting through your spares box or making additional purchases to get your lights working.
- Power tap connector with cable included — The kit features a dedicated power tap connector with integrated cable that connects cleanly to your Mini Maxx's accessory power system, providing a professional installation without messy splicing or improvised connections.
- Traxxas Tough™ engineering standards — Built to the same durability and reliability standards as Traxxas vehicles themselves, this lighting kit won't fail after a few runs. The components use quality materials and engineering design that delivers longevity even with heavy use and demanding driving conditions.
Technical Performance
The Mini Maxx LED light kit represents Traxxas's commitment to bringing genuine automotive design language to RC vehicles. The dual-colour LED system uses white LEDs for forward illumination and red LEDs for rear visibility, exactly mirroring the lighting strategy of full-size vehicles. The 3-volt regulated power supply is engineered to maintain constant voltage output, eliminating the common problem of LEDs dimming as battery voltage drops during a run. This tightly-regulated design keeps your lights bright and consistent from the moment you hit the throttle until your battery is fully depleted. The system achieves full waterproof protection, meaning the entire electrical pathway—from the power supply through the LED bars to the roof skid lights—is sealed against water ingress. This waterproofing allows you to use your illuminated Mini Maxx in genuine off-road conditions, crossing water features and driving in wet environments without electrical failure. The bumpers and skid plate are constructed with the same attention to fit and finish as OEM Traxxas parts, ensuring they align perfectly with your Mini Maxx chassis and integrate visually with the overall vehicle design. The included power tap connector features a dedicated cable that connects directly to your vehicle's accessory power system, providing a clean installation without modifications to your chassis or wiring loom. Materials throughout the kit are selected for durability under the stresses of off-road bashing, with secure mounting hardware that prevents vibration-induced loosening during aggressive driving.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this LED light kit fit my Traxxas Mini Maxx? — Yes, this kit is specifically designed for the Traxxas Mini Maxx and fits the #10711 body. The bumpers and roof skid are engineered with factory precision to align perfectly with your Mini Maxx chassis, requiring no modifications or adapter plates.
- How bright are the LEDs and will they work in daylight? — The LED system provides strong illumination suitable for nighttime and low-light conditions. In daylight, the lights are visible but less dramatic than in darkness. The system is optimised for evening and night-time RC driving sessions when their brightness advantage is most apparent.
- Is the lighting system fully waterproof? — Yes, the entire system is engineered to be fully waterproof. You can use your illuminated Mini Maxx in wet conditions, through water features, and in rain without concern for electrical failure. The waterproof design allows you to maintain performance in challenging off-road environments.
- What colour LEDs does the system include? — The kit features white forward-facing LEDs on both the front bumper and the front section of the roof skid plate for forward illumination. The rear bumper and rear section of the roof skid incorporate red LEDs for rear visibility, following standard automotive lighting conventions.
- How does the power supply prevent flickering and dimming? — The included 3-volt power supply features tight voltage regulation that maintains constant output regardless of your vehicle battery's state of charge. This regulated design prevents the voltage fluctuations that cause cheaper lighting systems to flicker and dim as your battery discharges during a run.
- Do I need to solder or modify my Mini Maxx to install this kit? — No, the kit features factory fit and finish with a power tap connector and cable that connects directly to your vehicle's accessory power system. Installation requires no soldering, chassis modifications, or special tools—just secure the bumpers and skid plate using the included hardware.
- What battery does the lighting system use? — The lighting system draws power from your Mini Maxx's main battery through the accessory power system via the included power tap connector. The 3-volt regulated supply ensures compatible operation with your vehicle's power delivery system.
- Will the LEDs drain my battery quickly? — The LED system is designed for efficiency, but like all accessories, it does draw a small amount of power from your main battery. The impact on overall runtime is minimal compared to your vehicle's motor current draw, so you'll maintain most of your normal driving duration.
- Can I use this kit with other Traxxas models? — This kit is specifically engineered for the Mini Maxx #10711 body. Compatibility with other Traxxas models is not confirmed in the technical specifications. Check with an authorised Traxxas dealer in the UK if you're considering use with a different vehicle model.
- Is this suitable for competitive track use? — The LED light kit is primarily designed for evening bashing and casual driving where nighttime illumination is desired. Whilst fully waterproof, check with your local RC track regulations before bringing an illuminated vehicle to competitive events, as some venues have restrictions on lighting systems.
