A site light including a body, a handle assembly coupled to the body and including one or more handle portions, an arm having a first end fixedly coupled to the body and a second end opposite the first end to define an arm length therebetween, where the second end of the arm is movable relative to the body to adjust the arm length. The site light also includes a light assembly coupled to and movable together with the second end of the arm relative to the body where the arm defines an arm axis, and where the handle assembly surrounds the arm axis.

Site light

Stand light

A light including a housing having an upper portion, a lower portion, and a central axis. The lower portion defines a battery port. The upper portion acts as a lens. The light further includes a heat sink extending upward from the lower portion of the housing and including a body defining a central aperture. A plurality of light support surfaces are arranged around a perimeter of the body and a top support member is coupled to and oriented perpendicularly relative to the plurality of light support surfaces. The light further includes a first plurality of LEDs coupled to the plurality of light support surfaces and a second plurality of LEDs supported on the top support member. The light further includes a first battery pack and a second battery pack, both of which are electrically connected to the first and second pluralities of LEDs when received in the battery port.

Light

A stand light including a telescoping body defining a central longitudinal axis and including a main center shaft, an extension pole extendable out of the main center shaft, and a sleeve movably supported on the main center shaft. The stand light further includes a head assembly supported by the extension pole. The head assembly includes a light head, a support arm coupled to the light head, and a light source supported on a face of the light head. A plurality of legs are pivotally coupled to the body and movable with the sleeve. The light head is rotatable relative to the support arm about a first axis that is perpendicular to the central longitudinal axis. The light head is rotatable to a first position where the light source is directed toward the extension pole, and to a second position where the light source is directed away from the extension pole.

A portable light includes an elongate body having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a longitudinal axis extending through the first and second ends, and a locking recess between the first end and the second end. The portable light further includes a movable handle that is movable between a first position and a second position along the longitudinal axis of the elongate body, the movable handle defining a grip axis that is parallel to and offset from the longitudinal axis of the elongate body. The portable light further includes an actuator positioned on the movable handle, the actuator operatively coupled to a locking pin that selectively engages the locking recess.

A site light including a body, the body including a base, and a handle assembly spaced a distance from the base to at least partially define a housing volume therebetween. The site light also including an arm, the arm having a first end fixedly coupled to the body and a second end opposite the first end to define an arm length therebetween, where the second end of the arm is movable relative to the body to adjust the arm length, and the site light including a light assembly coupled to and movable together with the second end of the arm relative to the body, and where the light assembly is adjustable between a stowed position in which at least a portion of the light assembly is positioned within the housing volume, and a second position, in which the light assembly is positioned outside the housing volume.

A site light including a body, an arm coupled to the body having an adjustable arm length, a light assembly coupled to the arm opposite the body, and a drive assembly configured to alter the arm length. The drive assembly, in turn, includes a drive wheel mounted for rotation with respect to the body, an idle wheel mounted for rotation with respect to the body, and a biasing member configured to bias the idle wheel toward the drive wheel. The site light also includes a cable coupled to the arm where the cable is positioned between and engaged by both the drive wheel and the idle wheel.

A site light including a body, a power system with an AC input and battery terminal, and a telescopic arm assembly supported by the body, where the telescopic arm includes a first end fixed relative to the body and a second end opposite and movable with respect to the first end. The site light also includes a light assembly in operable communication with the power system and coupled to and movable together with the second end of the telescopic arm, where the light assembly is operable in a first light mode in which the light assembly outputs approximately 13,000 lumens of light, and a second light mode in which the light assembly outputs approximately 20,000 lumens of light.

A stand light includes a body having a main center shaft and a sleeve movably supported on the main center shaft. The stand light additionally includes a head assembly supported by the main body and including a light source, and a plurality of legs pivotally coupled to the body. The plurality of legs is movable with the sleeve from a collapsed position to an extended position, in which distal ends of the plurality of legs are moved away from the body. A first leg of the plurality of legs includes a first handle portion and a second leg of the plurality of legs includes a second handle portion. When the plurality of legs is in the collapsed position, the first handle portion and the second handle portion are positioned adjacent to each other to form a handle configured to be grasped by a user.

A method of operating a portable light including placing a base housing on a support surface, such that a plurality of legs are spaced away from the support surface and collapsed against an elongate body, grasping a portion of the portable light adjacent a light head with a first hand of a user and lifting the base housing away from the support surface, grasping the handle with a second hand of the user, depressing an actuator on the handle with the second hand, which removes a locking member from a locking recess of the elongate body to enable movement of the collar relative to the elongate body in a direction along a longitudinal axis, and sliding the collar along the elongate body away from the light head to move the plurality of legs to be obliquely angled relative to the elongate body.

An area light including a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a central axis extending between the first and second end, at least one handle that is mounted between the first and second end, a housing disposed adjacent to the first end, and a hook pivotably coupled to the housing and moveable between a stored position, in which the hook lies flat against the housing, and an active position, in which the hook extends away from the housing. The area light further includes a light assembly disposed between the housing and the second end, a battery receptacle that receives a battery along a path that is perpendicular to the central axis, and a diffuser surrounding the light assembly and coupled to the housing. The diffuser tapers circumferentially inward toward the central axis along a direction from the housing to the second end.

Area light

A spotlight and a method of controlling the spotlight with an external device. The spotlight having a first light source including a center spotlight, a second light source including area lights, a power supply, a transceiver configured to communicate wirelessly with the external device, and a processor. The processor is operable to receive a first input from the external device specifying a first amount of power to be provided to the first light source, and receive a second input from the external device specifying a second amount of power to be provided to the second light source. The processor is also operable to control the power supply to provide the first amount of power to the first light source in response to the first input, and control the power supply to provide the second amount of power to the second light source in response to the second input.
