25th Anniversary Video Released
ORACLE Lighting is proud to release a special video that takes viewers on a journey through its history—from its humble beginnings in a small garage in Metairie, Louisiana, to becoming a global leader in automotive lighting innovation. This exclusive video captures the challenges, triumphs, and relentless pursuit of excellence that have defined ORACLE Lighting over the past 25 years.
Founded in 1999 by Justin Hartenstein and led alongside his wife and CEO, Tiffanie Hartenstein, ORACLE Lighting was built on a passion for cars and a vision to revolutionize vehicle lighting. The turning point came after Hurricane Katrina, which displaced both Justin and Tiffanie, yet they refused to let adversity define their future. Instead, they channeled their resilience into growing ORACLE Lighting into an internationally recognized brand. "The transition from hobby to full-time business was after Hurricane Katrina," shares Tiffanie in the video. "We had to rebuild, but we saw it as an opportunity to create something bigger than ourselves."
The video highlights ORACLE Lighting’s commitment to innovation, showcasing groundbreaking advancements such as LED headlight bulbs, ColorSHIFT technology, and smart controllers. "Innovation being at our core is always part of what we are looking for with our new products," says Tiffanie. "Justin has an incredible ability to anticipate what’s next and bring groundbreaking ideas to life. His relentless drive for innovation continues to set new standards in the industry."
Justin emphasizes that ORACLE Lighting’s success stems from its deep-rooted connection to the automotive enthusiast community. "Since the beginning, we have always been enthusiasts ourselves, building products for enthusiasts," he explains. This dedication to quality and creativity has earned ORACLE Lighting numerous industry awards and a loyal customer base.
As the company looks ahead, the video also explores ORACLE Lighting’s future vision—embracing new technologies, sustainability, and ever-evolving lighting solutions. "We are going to evolve with technology. It's all opportunities—opportunities give us chances to innovate and provide something to the market that no one has seen before," says Justin.
This video is more than just a look back; it is a tribute to the team, the customers, and the relentless drive that made ORACLE Lighting what it is today.
