Any Crew Working at Night Needs the Best Commercial Work Lights to Maximize Safety and Efficiency.

RLLD portable commercial work lights come equipped with 500-watt halogen lamps housed in weatherproof aluminum die-cast light heads.

Black powder coating finishes protect each and every one of our portable units, making these work lights resistant to inclement weather and occasional dropping and impact. This is important to outdoor crews working through all hours of the night who may occasionally and unexpectedly find themselves working in the rain, and who could not only suffer a loss of downtime from a shorted lamp, but also an electrical hazard. RLLD work lights offer the best protection against short circuiting with commercial grade, grounded electrical plugs fitted to a 15’ long 18/3 SJT 120volt cord set combining insulation and maneuverability. These lights are very easy to power on and off. The switch is located on the light head itself, and this makes it more accessible to a worker carrying materials that doesn’t have an extra hand, or even a moment to spare to fiddle around looking for a switch. Portable, commercial grade worklights can deliver more foot-candles per measured distances than cheaper retail work lights. RLLD commercial work lights produce a steady, solid 11,000 lumens with an expected bulb life of 2000 bulb hours in a widely varied range of working conditions.

In road crews and underground maintenance work, hands free operation is the rule of thumb for commercial work lights due to safety factors that require crewmembers to have both hands available at all times for tool and equipment operation.

RLLD tower work lights provide this security mounting on tripods with impeccable reliability. Porcelain sockets with spring-loaded contacts allow for shock absorption and simultaneous holding lamp fixtures firmly in place. The lamps themselves lie housed within tempered, shock resistant lenses that insulate the bulb itself with high temperature tubular silicone lens gaskets. This weatherproofs the fixture interior without compromising relamping convenience, as the halogen fixture that mounts on top of the tripod is a single unit in and of itself, included in the order, and requires no assembly of its own to function. The lamp unit features a 500-watt double-ended quartz halogen pre-packed in a protective cushion that makes installation quick and seamless and protects against inadvertent damage when workers have to setup lights in a hurry.

Our tripod-mounted commercial worklights are all UL listed as well, so companies and municipalities in humid areas like the American Gulf Coast can expect consistent and reliable illumination regardless of weather conditions.

For extreme conditions, we have dual lamp work lights mounted on towers that operate at 500 watts capable of lighting a 500 square foot area. Because commercial grade mounting offers great flexibility as well as firm and secure grip, worklights can be easily tilted up and down, sideways, and rotated 360 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically. This makes them ideal for any road construction or civil engineering work that might require both a wide field of illumination above ground and a tightly focused beam of light into an underground structure such as a storm sewer or manhole that requires light for workers to safely enter and clean.
