hi,
just wondering what lights other brigades use for scene lighting(not run off truck)e.g lighting up front of house for ba jobs, rcr....our brigade currently use the halogen lights 2x150W on each stand, but we find the bulbs blow all the time and they are now up for replacement (the whole light) do other brigades use LED? other lights? we run ours off a generator
Pipster:
We purchased a portable LED light, called a Smith light.
Only around $600, and won't light up the front of a house, but was useful for us for things like trees down, as you could easy carry the light to where you were working.
We have very little space left on the appliance to stow anything, and being at its weight limit already, adding gen sets etc was not going to work!

We have a set of 3 square lights that are flourescent, came with stands which are cumbersome to setup hence we dont use the stands but the lights can be setup on the ground can be setup on a car for rcr work, cost us 600 for 3 i believe from fire and rescue... and also believe we are looking at portable LED ones to add to that too
They are able to be setup in very good time compared to the halogen on stands and dont strain the generator because they use very little power

We have two Remote Area Lighting Systems (RALS) made by Pelican. Rechargable battery that gives up to 14 hours. They have a diffuser so you can use them as a spot or broad beam. Conveniently packed in a hard case on wheels. Easily stowed!
