Febraury 24, 2006—UK International, also known as Underwater Kinetics, a leader in high-end, innovative lighting solutions, has introduced LitLink–a hot stick illumination accessory for electrical utility, telecommunication workers and arborists. It provides broad illumination to the work area at night or in low light conditions.
When placed between the hot stick and any of a variety of hotstick tools (e.g., disconnect finger, wire tie tool, pruning equipment, bulb changers, wire brush cleaner, fuse removers, etc.) LitLink’s built-in LED casts a bright light directly on the work area. This enables linemen and other professionals to work more efficiently and safely in dark or unlighted areas.
The lightweight all-aluminum LitLink has a universal spline attachment at each end, enabling it to fit rigidly between a hotstick and any tool which would normally be used on the end of the stick. A one-watt battery powered white LED is sealed inside the LitLink and provides nearly 180-degree illumination around the tool.
LitLink can also be used as a general work area light. No matter how it is used, it frees up linemen from having to struggle to illuminate a work area adequately.
UK International designs and manufactures flashlights, waterproof cases, and other accessories for the industrial, first response, government, and dive and sport industries’ most demanding applications. For more information, visit the Web site.
