Prism Inflatable Light System

 
 
The Prism Light is a unique, inflatable, portable light that can be set up in a few minutes to illuminate a large area. One person can raise the PIL1000G with metal halide lamp (1000W equivalent to 95,000 lumens of brightness) to a height of 4.5 meters (15 feet) from ground level, without using a metallic structure, in order to provide illumination over a vast area as follows:

Prism can illuminate approximately 3,000 to 10,000 sq m (3,600 to 12,000 sq yards) - greater than the size of a football field.

From 35 feet: perform basic or advanced first aid: sort and identify medical supplies; prepare and serve food/water.

From 75 feet: identify tools in a tool box; assemble shelter (eg. Command post).

From 200 feet: read newspaper.

From 300 feet to 1,000 feet: avoid trip hazards; locate unconscious victims.

This results in a broadbased light covering the area rather than just a standard directional light that must be positioned and adjusted and will cover only a small specific area. A series of axial fans constantly inflates air into the supporting structure generating pressure to guarantee the necessary stability to the system and bring the light source up to the best operative level. The structure is enlarged vertically to operate even in narrow spaces. Ground anchorage of the structure by guy ropes allows the system to operate even with wind gusts up to 40 km per hour (25 mph). The system can be used with a portable generator if a power source is required. The Prism light can be inflated for maximum lighting in less than 5 minutes or deflated and taken down in a few minutes for putaway and storage. The PIL can even be transported in the back of a minivan.

The Prism Inflatable Light System has a wide range of applications: at roadside or other emergencies for use by first responders (fire, police, etc), power outages, civil protection, sports and entertainment events, field Hospitals, and many other unique applications. Multiple towers can be used to light up a large area.

Note: If a power source is required portable generators can be purchased through Healthmark or through Honda Generator Dealers. The 1000W version uses a Honda EU2000i (tank capacity 4.16lit/1.1 gallon).
