Longtime leader in commercial and industrial grade lighting equipment Larson Electronics has announced the release of a trailer hitch mounted light tower that comes complete with two IP67 rated 70 watt HID light heads that produce 12,600 lumens of light capable of illuminating an area 500’ in length by 500’ in width.
New Trailer Hitch Mounted HID Work Light from Larson Electronics
The HIDTH-66X2-70W work area light tower from Larson Electronics is multi-voltage capable and can be used with either 12 or 24 volts DC and is ideal for use as work area illumination, event lighting, emergency operations lighting, and is suitable for use on any vehicle that accepts a hitch mount. This light tower provides operators with a versatile lighting solution for operations where easily managed illumination of a large area is required. The 70 watt HID floodlights create a total of 12,600 lumens of light that provides coverage of an area 500’ long by 500’ wide. This unit is also available in a spotlight version that produces a beam 4200’ long by 180’ wide. The optional spotlight versions have 10° optics and produce a much longer and tighter spotlight beam. The tower extends from 3’ to 8’ and incorporates a trailer hitch mounting system that allows operators to easily secure the fixture to vehicles at any location. The mounting system provides secure placement of the tower in areas where high winds are commonly encountered as the weight of the vehicle removes the possibility of the unit swaying excessively or tipping over. There are several different power options provided for this light tower to accommodate any vehicle with a receiver hitch.
“Operators in the field generally have vehicles with trailer hitches available. Larson Electronics offers low cost telescoping light towers that take advantage of the trailer hitch and power supply available on most trucks and SUVs,” Rob Bresnahan with Larsonelectronics.com said. “The telescoping light assembly collapses to a small, lightweight form factor for storage and portability.”
Larson Electronics offers a wide selection of LED lights, LED light bars, explosion proof lights, flashlights, intrinsically safe lights and spotlights. You can visit www.larsonelectronics.com to learn more or call them at 1-800-369-6671 or 1-214-616-6180 for international inquiries.
