Our new 2015 catalogue marks our 25th year in business. This milestone demonstrates our on-going commitment to designing and manufacturing lighting solutions in-house - and to our customers. In this catalogue you’ll find an extensive range of portable lighting products including searchlights, floodlights, hazard lights, flashlights, tactical torches, head-torches, bike lights and safety approved lights. LED leaders We’re dedicated to developing LED lighting to extend running times, enhance performance and reduce energy usage. And the result? Innovative upgrades and improvements to our LED products. Instant and on-going benefits LED lighting is not only better value and environmentally-friendly, it emits less heat and clearer white light. It also gives longer running times, different modes, a 50,000 hour life and is more shock-resistant than traditional bulbs. Global innovation We’ve designed and manufactured the world’s most powerful portable LED floodlight, replacing inefficient halogen-based lights. So there’s less heat, weight, emissions, fuel and trailing cables. Want to know more? If you have a question or need help, please call (023) 9238 9774 or email [email protected] today.

    The old hunter’s adage “You can’t hit what you can’t see” also applies to any type of outdoor task that takes place in the gloom of night. From changing a flat tire on a lonely roadside to finding that downed buck just as evening closes in, having a reliable light is often the difference between your hunt being a great success or a total failure, or between having a memorable outing or a truly miserable experience. Make sure that you have reliable, powerful and affordable Browning flashlights and headlamps readily at hand. A Browning light should be part of your everyday carry (EDC) gear and be standard equipment in your backpack, glove box or purse. 216 LIGHT TECHNOLOGY HOW TO PICK THE RIGHT BROWNING LIGHT Browning leads the industry in portable battery-powered lighting for hunters and shooters with more than 40 styles in our product line.

  • Vibration Resistance of Headlamp Design with Light Emitting Diodes for Electric Locomotive
    Computer Optics and Nanophotonics Vibration resistance of headlamp design with light emitting diodes for electric locomotive Abulkhanov S.R., Skuratov D.L. Samara State Aerospace University Abstract. We determined the natural frequencies of the headlight structure with light emitting diodes (LEDs) for electric locomotive (VL series). We used the ANSYS software system of finite-element analysis for computations. The obtained values of the natural frequencies and the oscillation character of the design on every mode made it possible to determine the design activities that increase the vibration resistance of the design of a headlight. Keywords: a headlight of a locomotive, the natural frequencies of the structure, trouble-free service life, periodic vibration, light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Citation: Abulkhanov SR, Skuratov DL.

    Section 7.02 Lighting Standards Section 7.02 Lighting Standards Intent – The Lighting Standards contained in this Section are intended to provide for the erection, design, or placement of outdoor light fixtures which: provide for illumination levels on individual lots which are adequate for the safe and efficient movement of individuals or vehicles to and from a lot and within a lot (i.e., areas that are dangerous if unlit, such as stairs, intersections or changes in grade); provide for uniform and consistent site lighting in terms of style of outdoor light fixtures, type of light (white light sources such as metal halide or yellow light sources such as high pressure sodium), and light levels throughout a lot; are designed to protect against the spillover of light onto abutting properties which may negatively impact occupants of abutting properties; and, are designed to protect against objectionable glare onto public rights-of-way which may impair the vision of motorists. This section does not address Street Lighting on public or private streets – refer to Town Policy P-004 Street Lighting for requirements associated with lighting on streets. [Amended Ordinance #10-11] A. General Requirements. All outdoor light fixtures on a lot shall comply with the following regulations: 1. Minimum Setback – Notwithstanding anything in this UDO to the contrary for the Use of Required Yards for any district, an outdoor light fixture may be located within a required front yard, side yard, rear yard, front bufferyard, side bufferyard or rear bufferyard, provided that the outdoor light fixture is located adjacent to the interior edge of such yard or bufferyard.

INTRODUCTION The only two visual aids presently available to an aviator forced down at sea during the hours of darkness are a small, single-celled, flashlight, and a flare. The flare, of course, is expended after only one use, and the flashlight is visible for only a few hundred yards, even when its battery is fresh and the atmosphere is clear. Then too, both of these aids require that the man be alive and able to operate them. To be effective at all times a visual aid must function independently of any cooperation from the downed airman. There are a number of possible approaches to the solution of these problems, such as im- proved pyrotechnics or a better light for the pilot. Im- provements such as these would be helpful, but would still fall far short of providing effective visual aid in the variety of situations in which search and rescue operations must be carried out.

SPERRY HIGH INTENSITY SEARCHLIGHT. INTRODUCTION. 'TT^HE object of compiling this pamphlet is to give the instructions necessary for operating the Sperry High Intensity Searchlight, as well as to convey a general understanding of the fundamentals upon which it is based, and which account for the intense light output of which it is capable. This publication contains no description of the complete projectors made by this Company (this being contained in another publication), for it is realised that, with the advent of a lamp which gives seven to eleven times the light of a standard searchlight, there will be a natural tendency to convert the old type projectors to accommodate the Sperry Lamp, which can be done without difficulty, especially if the necessary projector accessories are supplied by us at the same time as the lamp. The subject is therefore divided as follows :— I. The Development of the Sperry High Intensity Arc. II. General Description of the Sperry Lamp. III. Instructions for Operation and Maintenance of the Lamp.
