Dialight to Provide LED Shelter Lighting for U.S Marine Corps
February 29, 2008
Dialight Corporation has received a major order for its newly developed, high-intensity LED lights for military shelters, which have been approved for use by the U.S. Marine Corps. Complying with MIL-STD-461E, RE102 and CE102 for EMI/RFI shielding, they can also be used for vehicle interior and shipboard lighting, as well as for general illumination requiring high light output.
"This new light and related contract are the result of our strategy to develop products for significant niche applications, in which we can use the unique properties of LEDs to offer an exceptional value proposition," said Gordon Routledge, vice president of Dialight's lighting products group. "This product provides a robust yet extremely slim-line lighting solution for a very demanding environment. Moving forward, we have identified many more potential applications beyond the military where this type of product will be useful."
