Larson Electronics Rechargeable Explosion Proof Flood Light Tower - Tripod Mounted - 20 Watt HID Light - C1D1 C2D1

Buy American CompliantThe Larson Electronics EPL-20W-TP1 Rechargeable Explosion Proof Floodlight Tower has a Class 1 Division 1 Groups A-D approval and contains an enhanced waterproof battery pack for longer run time on a single charge and greater protection against moisture intrusion. This HID light tower produces a brilliant light beam and features a removable light head, making it ideal for inspection and work activities where power sources are not available.This HID light tower features a 140 minute run time on a single charge of its waterproof 4800mAh Lithium Ion battery pack. A single 20 watt short arc Xenide HID bulb powered by an internal ballast produces a 1200 lumen beam is mounted to the collapsible aluminum tripod. The light head is IP68 rated waterproof, making it capable of withstanding submersion under pressure without damage. The beam on this light is a 12¡ spot configuration for handheld use, while the removable diffuser lense provides a flood beam for hands free illumination when mounted. The HID bulb in this unit provides high power and efficiency as well as a 6500k color temperature, producing a powerful beam that is a brilliant white-blue in color. The durable aluminum body has a black anodized coating to provide durable protection for this units` internal electronics and an aesthetically pleasing appearance. This light head has a single push button switch that allows easy one handed operation, which combined with its rugged construction and powerful beam, makes it a competent all around utility light capable of serving in industrial, commercial, tactical and private applications with equal effectiveness. This portable light tower includes a hard carrying case for the light head, waterproof battery and separate battery charging stand, AC charger (US/International compatible), Rubber lens/end cap protector, removable diffuser lens, collapsible tripod that adjusts from three to eight feet, and mounting bracket with wing nuts for quick mounting/dismounting. Tripod: The heavy duty aluminum tripod is durable, lightweight and adjustable to any length between 3 feet and 10 feet. A single mounting bracket holds the HID light and allows horizontal and vertical adjustments. The tripod legs can be collapsed and the light head bracket removed with the lights still on it for simple portability and deployment. The heavy duty construction of this tripod and the light weight of the aluminum HID fixture results in a portable yet very stable lighting platform that will hold its position, even in very windy conditions. The tripod weighs 8 pounds and the light head and attachment bracket weighs 4 pounds. The adjustable tripod is constructed of heavy duty aluminum with stainless steel hardware and provides secure height adjustment, leg positioning, and light mounting that will hold position even in windy conditions.A brief note about High Intensity Discharge (HID) flashlights:Incandescent flashlights have a bulb with a filament, much like the common household light bulb. A consistent amount of current is fed to the bulb. The filament glows and light and heat are produced. The filament glows because it is a poor conductor of electricity. Eventually the filament breaks due to vibration or diminished capacity. HID flashlights have a globe of gas that contains bounded by electrodes. A spark jumps across the electrodes igniting the gas. Initially, the amount of current required to ignite the gas is higher. Once the gas is lit, much less current is required to keep the gas burning. A device called a ballast controls the amount of current sent to the bulb. HID flashlights use about 50% less energy than incandescent bulbs, which means longer battery life than halogen incandescent bulbs. More importantly, HID lights have no filament to break. Thus, the HID bulb life is around 2500 hours, compared to several hundred hours of the filament based incandescent bulb. The HID bulb is more efficient, so it produces much more light with less energy over a long period of time. The trade off, however, is that the ballast that sends current to the bulb is an expensive addition, increasing the cost of the flashlight. The bulb itself is also significantly more expensive than halogen bulbs.)
