FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Medium Intensity Type B provides significantly higher light intensity (>2000 cd) with flashing operation, making it suitable for taller structures (typically 45m to 150m). Low Intensity Type A/B are steady burning and meant for shorter obstacles.
No. It is completely autonomous. The large solar panel charges the battery during daylight hours, and the light operates automatically from dusk to dawn using the built-in LDR sensor.
The light flashes red at a rate of 20 to 40 flashes per minute as per ICAO requirements for Medium Intensity Type B obstruction lighting.
