HOW AND WHO AND WHERE LENTRY SYSTEMS ARE USED:
Remote Area Lighting and Power

LENTRY units illuminate any outdoor scene, making flaggers and other crew easy to see, lighting roadwork and construction projects, and powering critical communication and computer systems during emergencies. They do not require batteries but can be used to charge batteries and battery-powered tools. For emergency preparedness, LENTRY Systems are must-haves.

LENTRY systems are currently in use by public utilities, airports, port authorities, hospitals, prisons, military, disaster services, towing companies, investigators, journalists, railroad companies, contractors, fire/rescue, law enforcement, and departments of transportation. We have received inquiries from many more fields as the potential of LENTRY Systems is discovered.

A Fire Department recently reported to us that their LENTRY unit is perfect for leaving on-scene with their fire marshall for investigations. It quietly lights the whole scene and is small enough he can simply bring it back with him when finished. Here are some examples of where the cordless light and backup electricity is being utilized. . .

  • Wrecker service - used to light accidents and wrecks on the roadway as towing company/tow truck loads.
  • Runway repair (crews told us of using a LENTRY on their truck as they make nighttime repairs to the runway on an AFB / military landing strip)
  • Sobriety stop / DUI check point lighting / DWI checkpoints
  • Fish traps! Often caught in the dark, fish and wildlife can use a small, portable LENTRY unit to light the entire area, greatly increasing safety and the ease with which they can finish the job.
  • Crime scene investigation (Coroners, sheriffs departments and other law enforcement...)
  • Safety lighting for highway flaggers, rescue personnel and recovery at accident scenes, traffic control lighting and more (extra tall XT models especially). Keep roadside workers safe and seen.
  • Used by prisons, airports and other facilities where power continuity and lighting is crucial.
  • Large-scale emergency scene lighting, for example triage incidents, mass casualty scenes.
  • Water rescue / swift-water rescue (riverbanks, hills and rocks are no obstacle)
  • Trenchwork (Water districts, public utilities are telling us lots of uses!)
  • Nighttime filming and videography
  • Homeland security and border patrol
  • U.S. Military at home and overseas
  • Utility maintenance
  • Disaster relief and recovery
  • Search and Rescue lights
  • Construction site lighting
  • Law enforcement (stows in trunk)
  • Trench rescue
  • Nighttime videography (light to film by)
  • Fire fighting
  • Emergency scene lighting
  • Truck-mounted lighting, thanks to mounting hardware (click here)
  • Road crews and highway projects
  • Cemeteries
  • Farming and agriculture
  • Provide power and light in unwired barns and outbuildings
  • Recreation - Use in your RV, Camper, 5th Wheel, Motorhome, Boat, Cabin
  • Boating - waterfront, dockside, at sea!
  • Shelter at home (backup power for your home during extended outages)

“We assembled the units and they look great. I am impressed with how sturdy the assemblies are, much more than I anticipated [...] I just wanted you to know what a pleasure it was working with you and I hope to do additional business with you in the future.” ~ Sergeant with the Crime Scene Unit of a County Sheriff's Office

Tip: No need to buy bigger and bigger generators. Two LENTRY units can be run in parallel for twice the power without getting a huge generator. Call for info!

light flaggers and hwy crews, emergency scenes and more

Choose the height of the LENTRY Light(s): standard or XT (extra tall).

For twice the light, choose Dual or 2-Headed XT lights.

LENTRY Units provide remote lighting AND make great margaritas.

Additional examples of uses we have heard:

  • Crime scene investigation (law enforcement, coroners, military...)
  • Energy companies and utility crews use them for remote maintenance and nighttime emergencies.
  • Swiftwater rescue team: used for nighttime scene lighting and can charge the other battery-powered suitcase-type telescoping lights they also use. LENTRY units replace having to run diesels wither inverters all day.
  • Utility companies and road crews also use them to light flaggers (XT lights are especially well-suited for this application)
  • Lighting up the Flagger at nighttime motor vehicle accident (MVAs) scenes. Imagine turning the scene from night to day - how much easier a flagger is to see and how much safer they become!
  • Cemetery lighting for grave sight preparation in the evening/night and illumination of evening graveside events
  • Heating an airplane hangar
  • Incident Command Post Emergency Power - lighting the communication center and running a few radios (EU2000i with a 750W light)
  • Calving light (lightweight EU1000i model)
  • Corn mazes, outdoor Halloween exhibits, other seasonal outdoor events
  • Hobbies - RC Aircraft enthusiasts use an EU1000i for remote power at airports.
  • Amateur videographers keep one in the trunk for light on-the-spot when events take place at night. Quietly running in the background.
  • Construction crews being able to work into the evening hours during winter (as shown in the photo gallery).

ANECDOTE: When James developed the first prototype, he took it to the fire station for ice training one winter evening. He started it up -- an EU1000i with single 650W light (we now use 750W lights) -- and set it off to the side to light the scene and keep the coffee pot going. At first he was a bit disappointed because as all the training went on, noone really seemed to notice as the LENTRY light filled in all the long, high-contrast shadows cast by the other trucks and equipment on scene. But luckly, James had not remembered to add much gas before the event and it ran out. The second the LENTRY stopped producing all that light -- THEN everyone noticed!

This is an essential safety product for people who work or respond in the dark to remote locations (and for those who like hot coffee, even when they’re “roughing it!”).
