The Nightsearcher Solaris Maxi is a great choice of lighting for various uses & applications. An adaptation of the older MAXI 9000 model, the Solaris Maxi is the LED alternative to its older sibling. The Solaris uses the same polyethylene power pack & extendable pole as the 9000, but it couples them with an LED light head instead of a fluorescent one, so you get all the practicality of the 9000 with increased lighting performance & efficiency. The Solaris, thanks to its powerful battery & 18 Cree LEDs produces an impressive maximum light output of 3500 lumens which that equates to an excellent 100 metre beam spread, more than enough to illuminate large areas. The Solaris is used by fire & rescue teams, the police, utility groups & construction workers among others & is ideal for illuminating empty properties for DIY & repair work, providing portable lighting at events, lighting up pathways & much, much more.
