Laydown Light Towers for Public Safety
WLT-PD
Wanco Light Towers for Public Safety provide an independent light source for public events, emergency response and more. The high-efficiency lights top a telescoping “laydown” tower that lies flat for travel and storage while rising up to 30 feet when deployed. Choose four LED or metal halide light fixtures, which can be aimed independently without the use of tools. Dual balloon lights are also available. The lights operate at any height and the mast can rotate 360 degrees, even while extended. Portable light towers are a proven tool for police, fire and rescue and more.
