Wanco Diesel Laydown Light Towers have been the go-to light tower for more than 35 years. Featuring a telescoping tower that lies flat for low transport and storage height, the tower rises to 30 feet with two winches when deployed. State-of-the-art technology provides superior illumination with a choice of metal halide lights, LEDs or balloon lights. For fast job-site setup and less downtime, each light fixture can be aimed independently without the use of tools—and the fixtures stay in place once positioned.
