Highly Visible Lights
Highly Visible Lights
(OP)
We have the need for several outdoor heavy duty lights that preferably need to be:
- Distguishable off or on from 100m away, during daylight.
- Visible from 360 degrees
- Ability to flash or remain solid.
- Green or Red colour
- not a rotating beacon (as the need to for it to appear 'solid')
Anyone have any ideas? Have exhausted electrical catalogues for something suitable.
Thanks in advance

I'm sure they'll have something like that.

www.hydrel.com can manufacture a custom fixture for you, but I would try to find a standard product first.

One possibility might be to use super-bright LED's such as those found in traffic lights, coupled with a convex parabolic mirror, such as the ones below, but used in reverse:

IRstuff, good question. Basically the lights general shape is to be the top half of a sphere.

I don't know who makes them but it shouldn't be too hard to find out.
