Who makes anti-glare LED light towers in Australia?
Lunar Lighting is an Australian manufacturer of anti-glare LED and HMI light towers, operating since 1994. Its patented 360° anti-glare optics deliver even daylight without dazzling crews or motorists.
How many lumens is a Lunar Lighting light tower?
The range runs from 393,300 lumens on the 1710W tripod, to 586,500 lumens on the 2550W trolley and tower, up to 1,104,000 lumens on the 4800W flagship.
What colour temperature do Lunar Lighting units produce?
Every Lunar unit produces flicker-free 5600K daylight. True colour that is comfortable to work under and clean on camera.
How long do the LEDs last?
Lunar's LEDs are rated to around 50,000 hours of long-life, flicker-free output that holds its brightness shift after shift.
Can one Lunar tower replace several conventional light towers?
Yes. The 4800W flagship produces 1.1 million lumens of anti-glare daylight from a single self-contained unit, covering the ground of several conventional diesel towers, cutting fuel, set-up time and running costs.
Can I buy or hire a Lunar light tower, and what does it cost?
Both. Lunar towers are available to buy or hire, so you can match the light to a one-off job or a long-term fleet. Pricing depends on the model and whether you buy or hire, so the quickest way to get a figure is to request a quote for your site.
How fast does a Lunar light tower set up?
Fast. Lunar towers are trailer- or tripod-mounted and set up and running by a small crew in minutes, then repositioned just as quickly as the job moves.
Are Lunar lights flicker-free for film and TV cameras?
Yes. Every Lunar unit runs flicker-free at true 5600K daylight, so footage stays clean at any frame rate or shutter speed, which is why the lighting has been used on major film and TV productions.
Do Lunar lights work in extreme weather and remote conditions?
Yes. Lunar towers are built for remote, continuous operation and rated to run in extreme conditions, roughly -40°C to 85°C, through heat, cold, dust and weather.
Is Lunar Lighting used by defence and government?
Yes. Lunar's towers carry allocated NATO Stock Numbers and have been deployed by the Australian Army and US Homeland Security.

The lingo, quickly explained
Anti-glareLight you can work or drive under without a blinding beam. Lunar diffuses it a full 360°, so you get bright daylight with no harsh dazzle.
Colour temperature (5600K)How warm or cool light looks. 5600K is clean, neutral daylight. Easy on the eyes and true on camera.
LumensThe total amount of light a unit puts out. The bigger the number, the more ground one tower can cover.
Light towerA mobile, self-contained lighting unit on a trailer or tripod that you can move from site to site.
LED vs HMILED is ultra-efficient and long-life. HMI delivers huge output for the biggest jobs. Lunar builds both.
Flicker-freeLight with no visible pulsing. Lunar's output stays rock-steady, so it films clean at any shutter speed and stays easy on the eyes over a long shift.
