Command Light FDIC 2024

Command Light, a leader in emergency lighting, is unveiling a new battery-powered mobile light at FDIC International 2024. The new battery-powered EOS-RDL (Rapid Deploy Light) weill be on display in booth #3505.

This compact, battery-powered light combines choice of non-proprietary battery (DeWalt® FLEXVOLT, Makita® XGT, or Milwaukee® REDLITHIUM) with high-powered LEDs from Akron, FireTech, FRC, Tomar, Whelen, or Vision X. The light can also be spec’ed with optional shore power, allowing the unit to operate on 115 VAC or 220 VAC power.

Depending on choice of LED, this compact 10.5” x 9.75” x 9” light packs up to 20,500 lumens in a lightweight design. The EOS weighs as little as 9 pounds and provides up to 4.5 hours of run time, depending on battery and fixture selections.

The EOS is the perfect partner to Command Light’s Trident Tripod, which is also powered by the same non-proprietary batteries (including HURST® EWXT/E3™ batteries), or can be spec’ed as an AC-powered tripod. Available in a 40- or 50-inch folding design, the Trident Tripod also can be paired with an arrow stick or message bar, converting this mobile light into a traffic advisor. Otherwise it can be spec’ed with an optional truck mount to secure the tripod to the back of an apparatus to provide easy storage and truck lighting.

Thanks to the EOS’ and Trident’s non-proprietary battery design, both lights were designed to complement you fire department’s other battery-powered tools. Look for the EOS-RDL’s official launch at the Command Light Booth (#3505)!
