TowMate has launched what it calls two revolutionary safety lighting products that incorporate the patented HINVII technology — the SS470UVA and the TM-LS-UVA.

UV Light Head

The SS470UVA, a unique UV light head, is designed to dramatically increase the visibility of roadside workers' vests.

The light head uses HINVII technology to emit a non-visible light that causes workers' vests to glow intensely, ensuring they are more visible to passing motorists, according to the company.

While the vests appear brilliantly lit to drivers, the light itself is non-distracting and is non-visible to the workers. TowMate said this allows workers to focus on their tasks without any impairment to their field of vision.

The light head also features amber LED’s that can be set to alternate with the HINVII LEDs for greater visibility in varying conditions.

Rechargeable Traffic-Cone Lighting

TowMate’s new TM-LS-UVA is a rechargeable, traffic-cone-mounted system.

It not only features the innovative SS470UVA light head, but also is rechargeable and portable. The company said this ensures worker visibility can be realized where they are needed and not just limited to around the truck.

The HINVII light capability ensures maximum visibility in various lighting conditions and traffic scenarios, which the company said makes it an indispensable tool for roadside safety.

Lifetime Warranty

The two new products are manufactured in Rogers, Arkansas, and both the SS470UVA and TM-LS-UVA come with a lifetime warranty on electronics and LEDs.
