Applied LED lighting technology specialist Dialight Plc. today announced that an agreement has been signed with a second major US telecom tower operator, for its LED white strobe technology. The commitment from the operator is to use Dialight’s unique LED technology for all new towers, all light replacements and repairs. Initial shipments have already commenced and the agreement will continue through at least the end of 2010. Dialight had announced in June a contract with another major US operator, and it said the combined volumes of product expected from the two contracts represent only a small percentage of the installed base of towers that could be retrofitted with its products, illustrating this significant market opportunity.
Currently the only product in its class, Dialight’s LED dual strobe offers more than 10 years life expectancy and avoids the need for dangerous and expensive tower climbs to replace conventional light sources, according to the company.
