Pod Bright - Safe Light Updates Product

UK Euro Partner has rcently received its first consignment of the new and update version of the Pod Bright from Safe Light.

The new version of the Pod Bright has a darker edge surround and benefits from a quicker activation time making the product even more effective in conditions of hazard and safety. Pod Bright is incorporated into Safe Light Kits:
  • DriverSafe Kit
  • Emergency Light Kit
  • Visibility Kit Pro using the Velcro Velcoin attachment method, making it a truly reliable light source for emergency use in all industrial situations particularly mining and underground.
Pod Bright is currently being tested by several UK industrial organisations for its practical abilities. National Sales Manager Mr Tony Harper reports that, 'responses received from people testing the Pod Bright have been very interesting particularly when they realise that although we warrant its function for only 8 hours in nearly all cases it remains illuminated for more than 24 hours'. This makes it a highly beneficial safety tool in cases of black out emergency.
