A conventional portable light tower, typically covers
As one 12000W HMI Lunar Light Tower can replace
Lunar Light systems use a different technology
Lunar lights reduce shadowing caused by directional beams.
Lunar lights have significantly lower running costs
Lunar has a light for every purpose – towed and non-
Dependable in harsh conditions such as mining
Can be changed from 360° to 180° in minutes if there
