Wind Energy Lighting

Flash Technology is the leader in supplying aviation obstruction lighting to the rapidly growing wind energy market. Our lighting technology saves time and energy expense for wind farm owners. The use of LEDs cuts energy usage by 80% compared to strobe lights and 96% when compared to incandescent. Maintenance cost is lowered due to status indicators, state-of-the-art surge suppression, and an advanced heat sync design that requires no moving parts.
