Lighting is the main source of utility that is required to accomplish any task in the world. Without any light, we are as blind as kohl. For outdoor projects especially, one needs to have a reliable and foolproof piece of equipment that will help finish a project with ease. Improper lighting conditions will not only hinder the speed of the project but can also potentially cause fatal injuries to workers.

Purchasing or renting a mobile lighting tower including several other factors needs to be taken count of before venturing into a night project. For lighting towers, the process although a little trick can be carried out swiftly. There are a few requirements and measurements one needs to process before renting or purchasing a mobile lighting tower. These attributes will help you choose the perfect mobile lighting tower for your application without being too expensive.

How much light do I need?

To identify how much light you need, you need to first take an accurate measurement of your working site. Make sure to consider whether it is outdoors or indoors. Also, take note of how long you need your mobile lighting tower to operate continuously for.

For longer durations, you can choose LED lights as they are more economical. For minimal to average durations, you can choose regular metal halide bulbs.

For an area measuring from 3000 to 5000 sq. m, LED bulbs will consume around 1000-1400 w of power. On the other hand, metal halide bulbs will require more than 4000 w of power to light up the same area. Since most of your investment depends upon these factors, choose your light bulb wisely.

What is my power source?

If your location is close to an electrical power source and has an ample and reliable abundance of power, then you may choose an electric-only lighting tower. They are simple and can be used plug n play. You can have multiple units connected together with each lighting tower being able to cover an area around 3000 sq. m.

If you are located in a remote area with meager power outlets or an unreliable source of energy, your best option would be a diesel/petrol powered lighting tower. When it comes to portability, such towers are usually the most ideal option since you can move them throughout your site. There is no hassle of requiring direct grid power at every corner. Also, keep in mind that a single diesel lighting tower will be able to light a greater amount of area than an electrical tower.

Make the right investment

If your application requires long hours of usage, choose LED bulbs. If your application requires a small number of hours, choose metal halide bulbs. Imperceptibly, you will need to pay a higher upfront cost to rent/purchase an LED lighting tower as compared to a metal halide lighting tower.

Also, it is important to determine whether your requirement needs you to permanently own lighting vs renting one. If you are going to use a mobile lighting tower in a single construction project or similar, it is best to rent. If you require a mobile lighting tower for a good amount of time, then it is recommended to purchase one.
