NOx Sensors: A Breakdown to Help You Avoid Breakdowns
What is a NOx Sensor? NOx sensors are exactly what they sound like—sensors that detect NOx (harmful nitrogen oxide particles) in your truck’s exhaust stream. They’re a small but important part of a diesel aftertreatment system. What does a NOx sensor do in a commercial truck? There are two NOx sensors in an HD truck’s […]
Logging Trucks and Idling Issues
The logging industry is a profitable area, but recent years have seen profit margins shrinking and companies struggling with driver retention. One surprising way for companies to recoup profits is through idle reduction. The average long-haul truck loses $10,000-$12,000 USD in fuel every year while idling. These rates are often higher in logging trucks, as […]
Why Did Roadwarrior develop LightningVolt™?
As commercial trucking aftertreatment specialists, we like to be at the forefront of developments and technology improvements.

APU Batteries Reduce Regens Through Idle Reduction
For most commercial truck drivers, regens range from a minor inconvenience to a significant issue. But did you know cutting down on idling dramatically reduces the regularity of regens, extends the life of your DPF and DOC, and reduces fuel spending? Installing an electric APU with efficient lithium batteries is one of the easiest ways […]
The Upstream Issues Behind Your Aftertreatment Problems
Heavy-duty aftertreatment systems work with your diesel engine to reduce emissions and increase efficiency. The two systems are interlinked, allowing them to work much more effectively together. However, this also means that if there are issues with one system, they can affect the other. Untreated upstream issues can damage your aftertreatment devices, which in […]
