The Expeditionary Airfield Lighting System (EALS) is a portable airfield lighting system designed for quick and easy deployment of portable solar airfield lights. Ideal for military, police and airport operators, the EALS system comes with an integrated solar charging system, keeping your lights charged and ready for use.
