is captured by highly
efficient solar panels that are easily tilted
for optimal performance. The energy is then
stored in heavy duty batteries.
For those challenging winter days and 24/7 jobs, no extra charging is needed. For o perations with shorter daylight hours, an external charge connection is provided. When light is needed, the high efficiency LED lights switch on and off instantly. The QLTS optimize light output for the battery charge to provide quality light throughout the night.

Durante Rentals and Huey Lewis and the News
|
As many of our valued customers already know, Durante Rentals holds season tickets to the Mets at Citifield. We try to reward our best customers with tickets from time to time and on the very rare occasion our owner, John Durante, will attend. As an avid Yankee fan, our gut feeling is that the post-game Huey Lewis and the News concert had something to do with his attendance on this particular night.
Can you spot John and his beautiful wife Diane in the crowd? Hint: See the big red arrow.
