Hybrid light tower
National Signal LLC has introduced the LitePod Li+ hybrid light tower.
 |
| Featuring exceptional brightness and long runtimes, the LitePod Li+ delivers unparalleled performance while minimizing environmental impact. |
Designed with maximum efficiency and sustainability in mind, the LitePod Li+ is equipped with an intelligent energy management system that optimally balances Li-ion battery power and engine use, significantly reducing fuel consumption while extending engine lifespan.
Featuring exceptional brightness and long runtimes, the LitePod Li+ delivers unparalleled performance while minimizing environmental impact. It integrates cutting-edge Hatz PMGi technology and advanced LitePod Li+ Li-ion battery innovation, ensuring that users experience unmatched efficiency in their lighting needs.
The intelligent energy management system continuously monitors battery levels, automatically activating the engine only when necessary to initiate the charging cycle. Once the battery reaches optimal levels, the engine shuts off, allowing the lights to draw power directly from the battery. This efficient on-off charging cycle dramatically minimizes fuel consumption and prolongs engine longevity.
The LitePod Li+ is equipped with four high-brightness LED lamps, similar to those found in our top-tier solar light towers, offering exceptional brightness and energy-saving capabilities. The advanced dimming features enable the LitePod Li+ to operate for more than 1,200 hours on a single 39-gallon tank of fuel, significantly reducing the frequency of refueling trips.
In addition to reducing carbon emissions, the semi-permanent design of this long-runtime lighting system enhances security by minimizing the risk of theft.
"Our diesel and Li-ion hybrid light towers are a testament to National Signal’s commitment to the rental industry," says Mark Fernandez, president at National Signal. "After sharing the prototype of the LitePod Pro Li+ with our partners in the industry who buy our solar-powered light towers, they quickly recognized the need for this new hybrid technology and provided valuable insight and support. Our partners were instrumental in launching this winner into the rental industry.”
