Fleet managers that utilize vehicle or bus lifts needed to reduce energy consumption, while still fully illuminating the undercarriage of fleet vehicles and buses. This was of most concern to municipalities that manage their mass transit bus and rail fleets.
KH knew that low amperage draw lighting would be ideal for utility fleet maintenance and traditional fluorescent KH Add-A-Lights had been used for this application for the last 30+ years. KH Industries redesigned its 20 Watt and 34 Watt fluorescent feed-through Add-A-Lights to accept LEDs. By switching to LED from fluorescent, there are significant cost-savings. LEDs use less energy while producing intensely bright and focused task lighting. Additionally, an LED bulb can last up to 50,000 hours and contain no mercury.
