SCL Direct are proud to offer yet another Nightsearcher range of products, the Ecostar LED floodlights. These offer a high light output from a single LED chip and are available in 10, 30, 50 and 70 watt models.

Each offering an exceptional energy efficiency of 100 lumen’s per watt light output, with a total efficiency of over 90%. This far exceeds halogen and even fluorescent lamp floodlights. The 50 watt EcoStar floodlight has a light output equivalent to a 500 watt Halogen floodlight, using around 90% less power. A life expectancy of 50,000 hours ensures no lamps changes, minimising maintenance costs.

A clear white light (7,000 Kelvin) offers excellent colour rendering, almost turning night in to day. This is ideal for use with CCTV cameras or for excellent visibility when used as a work light. The LED light source has a 120 degree beam, which reduces the need for more floodlights when covering wider areas. A low surface temperature also improves safety, if used in close proximity.

The electronic control gear has an operating range of 90 to 240 volt 50Hz, which means the EcoStar range can be operated from either a 110 volt generator or 230 volt mains.

All models will shortly be available with an integrated PIR for even better control. LED floodlights are an instant light source, so are ideal for use with PIR’s as security lighting.

For work light applications, 1.7 metre and 3.5 metre tripods are available as optional extras.

Product range specification and prices (23/01/2012)

Securing your home or business property should be paramount at this time of year. It will not be long before the night starts in the late afternoon, and the long dark nights may also bring unwanted intruders. It is not very nice to have all you have worked hard and honestly for to be stolen by people who think they can take what is rightfully and legally yours.

A key factor in bringing to justice the people involved in the recent English riots was CCTV. This was used to identify the criminals for arrest and then have them swiftly dealt with in court. CCTV is no longer the big cameras that require professional installation; nor is it poor quality DIY cameras that just show a blurry image. The digital age has brought with it an affordable and viable solution – the digital camera security light. These require no more than a 230 volt mains connection which is already there if you have a normal security light.

SCL Direct and our sister sites, Security Lights Direct and Onlights, have two types of digital camera security lights available, starting from only £102.75 including U.K. Mainland delivery and VAT. The E.S.P Guardcam is the more popular of the two we have, and looks like an ordinary PIR Security floodlight until someone triggers its 160 degree detection range of up to 10 metres. An audible warning is sounded and either a series of digital images is taken or a 20 second video clip of the event. These are stored on a secure memory card within the floodlight for later viewing on a P.C.

The latest digital camera floodlight to be added to our websites is from the Nightwatcher range. The NW700BL features the latest in cutting-edge technology, not only by using high power, long life LED’s as a light source but by also having a motorised tracking floodlight head and camera. Once activated the light and camera will track the movement of the person within the detection range and either record video or take 3 digital images per second. An audio alert can be recorded to deter intruders and inform them they are being recorded.

SCL Direct, Onlights, Security Lights Direct and Emergency Lighting Direct are owned and operated by E.L Limited, a respected and trusted online retailer for more than a few years now.

It is not everyday E.L. Limited can compare itself with the mighty Apple Inc. but now we have something in common: people wanting to imitate us and trying to cash in on our hard work and success. It has come to our attention that their are number of copycat online stores. They may look similar, they will certainly have the same written product descriptions, but if it does not say E.L. Limited on the bottom of each page, you may be looking at websites operated by thieves, who have stolen our website content, and nobody likes or trusts a thief.

Many people say Dmoz is the place to be, some say its past its sell by date, but still people always want to get into the Open Directory.

The Maxi Solaris has an 18 Cree LED light head  producing 1,500 lumens on full power with a 30 degree wide beam, this can be effective up to 100 metres. A full charge from the standard 24A/h power pack of 7 hours will enable the floodlight to run for 9 hours on full power or 20 hours on low power (900 lumens).The power pack has green, amber and red LED battery status indicators and will flash red when the battery is low and requires recharging.  An optional 38A/h power pack is also available for longer running times.

The LED’s are 6,000 kelvin colour temperature and as such produce near natural daylight, ideal for correct colour identification. As with most LED light sources the head runs very cool and is even safe to touch, unlike halogen or even fluorescent light sources.

The adjustable height pole has a minimum height of 850mm(2ft 9 inches)  to a full height of 2.2 metres (6ft 6 inches). An overall weight of  11.6kg makes this unit easily carried by one person.

All this for a very attractive price of £450 ex VAT, making this the most affordable way to have a Nightsearcher Solaris head powered portable rechargeable floodlight.

This time it’s the ever popular 300 Watt receiver floodlight complete with a wireless battery operated PIR and a hand held remote control,stock code TRSKIT04.

A typical installation for this kit would be a back garden or driveway, the floodlight mounted at 3-4 metres high with the wireless PIR sensor mounted 2 metres high for the optimal 12 metre range.

The PIR sensor can be mounted higher, but this will shorten the field of range. A 110 degree fan shaped area detection area provides good coverage. The PIR sensor has an adjustable time on of 5 seconds to 12 minutes, a recommended time on would be 1-2 minutes. The hand held remote control enables you to manually switch the light on and off from up to 70 metres in open air conditions, this will reduce when the radio signal is travelling through solid objects such as brick walls. This should still operate to 20 metres approximately through such objects.

The TRSKIT04 is currently in stock for next day delivery, if ordered before 2pm for only £44.39 including VAT and delivery, so possibly the cheapest price on the web? Look out for more value kits from the Titan RS range of products coming soon at SCL Direct.
