Youngman has redesigned the Ecolite with Green House Strategies, incorporating the newest in GHS LED technology. The superior performance of LED lighting results in a massive saving in fuel costs with the new enhanced Ecolite only using 0.7 litres of diesel an hour.

This equates to a saving of up to 65% against conventional light towers. Plus due to this exceptional fuel economy and the reliable Hatz engine, the Ecolite will run for up to 135 hours continuously on one tank of fuel.

The light produced is also a superior quality light with a more even spread of light, also with reduced glare and no flicker which makes it perfect for roadside use where the motorist’s and workforce safety is a prime consideration, mining and event applications LED’s provide instant on off and allow for use in a wider range of temperatures.

Greenhouse Strategies, produces a light fixture that is humidity sealed and incorporates a GE Lexan shield that is guaranteed against yellowing for 10 years, shatter proof and resistant to rocks and other projectiles.

Possibly the most important advance is that LED lights, when designed properly, don’t burn out or need replacing for up to 12 years. This greatly reduces the maintenance and/or downtime of the Ecolite tower. Also of note is that LED’s, upon disposal, pose no hazardous waste issue to the environment.

DOES YOUR LIGHT TOWER OFFER YOU ALL THIS?

Energy Efficient and Reduced emissions
Low energy lights with a fuel saving of up to 65% against standard mobile lighting towers.
Excellent fuel economy – only using 0.7ltr diesel an hour helping to offset carbon emissions
Fully bunded design – no fluids can leak from the unit in the unlikely event of an internal spillage
Time saving – Up to 135 hours continuous run time on one tank of fuel
Fully Hydraulic 9.1 metre mast – no hand winching required using bio-degradable fluids
Robust and sturdy – able to withstand winds of up to 80 kph
Safer working environment – LED lamps reduce glare and high CRI
Hatz Diesel Engine – complies with the latest emissions regulations
Easily transportable – can be towed behind a car.
AMOSS – Safety system preventing movement of the unit while the mast is raised thus avoiding potential safety hazards from overhead structures.
If not, then you should be considering the Ecolite-T L.E.D. The safe task lighting with reduced carbon emissions

Greenhouse Strategies LED lights for security save 80% in energy

NYC public schools began replacing inefficient security lighting with Greenhouse Strategies LED lights. The Staten Island school replaced 250 watt HPS lamps for new 70 watt LED fixtures.

The school will not only save over 75% in energy but will virtually eliminate expensive maintenance for a dozen years or more. Other benefits include a superior light color rendering for security cameras and an over all increase in light output.

The highly durable fixtures will be virtually “bullet proof” and can withstand  vandalism, flying baseballs and just about anything else a busy school yard can muster up. Greenhouse Strategies LED fixtures are also 100% environmentally safe and can be recycled after its extremely long life.

LED security lighting by Greenhouse Strategies

The Village of Rockville Centre incorporated a new type of light show to their fireworks on Saturday night. Greenhouse Strategies provided an industry first LED mobile light tower that operates silently on batteries to deliver crisp security lighting in a parking lot adjacent to the show that currently had no security lighting.

Onlookers were able to access the parking lot and walk through it to get closer to the show  when in previous years this would have been impossible. Current light towers run on diesel generators which are noisy and would interrupt the concert and master of ceremonies. The LED tower ran silently for up to 14 hours and little, if any, of the 5000 residents knew it was even there. Unlike current lighting towers, This LED tower was able to light up instantly and required no warm up time. This was key to providing the residents with instant light immediately following the final blast of the last firework.

Silent operating LED light tower with batteries

In an effort to provide lighting solutions for coastal areas likely to be utilized by sea turtles for nesting in surrounding areas,  US manufacturer, Greenhouse Strategies,  has begun to offer all of their LED lighting applications in the amber range of color that has been established as turtle safe. These LED lights even include their most popular seller, an LED light panel that replaces 1000 watt metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps that operate on just 230 watts and can last decades.

The amber lighting is just the start of keeping the environment safe. Greenhouse LED light fixtures are also 100% environmentally safe and contain no mercury or hazardous waste like MH and HPS bulbs. Another benefit to the globe would be the “dark sky” friendly design of the LED fixtures to eliminate light pollution to the night sky.

Turtle safe amber LED lighting

Guess who is entering the mobile stadium lighting market? Our LED technology will allow for up to 70% energy savings and lights that will last for decades. Custom optics will reduce light pollution and allow for dark sky operation at evening competitions. Greenhouse Strategies LED technology allows for silent operation on batteries that will eliminate noise from diesel generators powering current  mobile light towers. Let the games begin….

Greenhouse Strategies’ newest venture….the Oil and Gas industry. This ever expanding and challenging business sector will rely Greenhouse Strategies  industry leading efficiency, durability, safety and reliability to provide lighting in the most demanding environments on the planet.

Already a global leader in the mining industry, GHS LED looks to capitalize on it’s extremely durable yet highly efficient lighting solutions to work in a similarly hostile environment in oil and gas exploration projects.

DOT tests LED lighting fixtures

Last night, The Department of Transportation conducted a test of over a dozen different mobile light towers that are being evaluated for current and future use in construction zones for night time illumination. There were numerous technologies and configurations being examined by both the DOT and contractors in the construction and road paving industry.

The operation was conducted on a closed two lane street just outside Albany, New York. The evaluation included light output, glare, light color, efficiency and durability of the light fixtures. Greenhouse Strategies was the provider of LED light fixtures on a mobile light tower that seemed to really impress the crowd on all of the criteria. Aside from it being the brightest of the bunch, the extremely durable fixtures reduced power consumption by 80% over the typical light towers using metal halide lamps. Most contractors easily recognized the significant reduction in glare and were extremely excited about the virtual elimination of maintenance to the lights.

The official results of the survey and light measurement readings will be provided to the participants in the near future.

Youngman introduces LED lighting tower

Youngman Group has launched the Ecolite LED mobile lighting tower which joins the company’s existing mobile and stationary ceramic discharge lamp models.
Youngman says that the building industry has shown growing interest in LED lighting because of its lower power consumption, low heat output and long life.

The Youngman unit is equipped with an array of 400 individual LEDs mounted across four adjustable holders providing a total light output of 91,800 lumens.

Developed in partnership with US company Green House Strategies, the Ecolite LED offers an ultra-low fuel consumption of just 0.65 litre/hr giving a 145 hours of continuous use on a single tank of diesel.

Youngman says that Green House Strategies developed the lamps to US military specification. The LED panels have 100 individual prismatic lenses that dramatically reduce the level of glare that can be a problem with some LED light sources.
