OEM & ODM Support for Your Branding and Technical Requirements
Table of Contents
Introduction
When darkness sets in, the work doesn’t stop. Lighting tower trailers provide essential illumination for construction sites, emergency zones, mining operations, and public events—anywhere reliable mobile lighting is critical.
At Zhuoyue Metal Products Co., Ltd., we manufacture a full range of high-performance lighting tower trailers engineered to meet diverse environmental and operational needs.
From eco-friendly solar solutions to rugged diesel-powered towers and hybrid solar-diesel systems, our products combine energy efficiency, durability, and custom engineering.
Lighting Tower Trailer Categories
1. Solar Light Tower Trailers
The most sustainable choice for off-grid and eco-sensitive locations, solar light towers operate silently and emission-free. Ideal for projects seeking long-term operational cost savings and reduced carbon footprint.
Key Specs:
Solar Panel Capacity: 600W – 1200W (poly or mono)
Battery Bank: 3 kWh – 10 kWh lithium or AGM
Lights: 4 x 200W LED floodlights
Mast: Manual or hydraulic, 6–9 meters
Frame: Powder-coated or galvanized steel
Runtime: Up to 36+ hours per charge
Best for: Off-grid worksites, disaster response, military checkpoints, remote events.
2. Solar Diesel Light Tower Trailers (Hybrid Systems)
Hybrid towers provide the best of both worlds—solar sustainability with diesel reliability. They automatically switch to diesel power during cloudy days or prolonged night work.
Key Specs:
Solar Output: 600W – 1000W
Diesel Generator: 3.5 kW – 6 kW auto-start
Battery: 3 – 8 kWh
Lights: Up to 6 x 200W LEDs
Fuel Tank: 50 – 100L
Control: Intelligent switching system
Best for: Long-shift projects, government infrastructure, mobile command posts.
3. Diesel Light Tower Trailers
Diesel towers are a traditional, high-output solution for demanding applications where solar isn’t viable. These trailers are rugged, self-contained, and engineered for durability under extreme conditions.
Key Specs:
Diesel Generator: 5 kW – 8 kW
Lights: 4–6 x 400W metal halide or LED
Mast Height: 6–9 meters
Runtime: 60–100 hours on full tank
Frame: Road-legal steel chassis
Best for: Mining, night construction, emergency zones with no sunlight.
Lighting Tower Comparison Table
| Feature | Solar Tower | Hybrid Tower | Diesel Tower |
|---|---|---|---|
| Power Source | 100% solar | Solar + diesel backup | Diesel only |
| Fuel Cost | Zero | Low to medium | Medium to high |
| Noise / Emissions | Silent, zero-emission | Low-emission | Loud, emissions present |
| Maintenance | Very low | Moderate | Higher |
| Runtime Without Sun | Up to 36+ hrs | Continuous with fuel | Continuous with fuel |
| Ideal For | Remote, green projects | Long shifts & backup | Heavy-duty 24/7 use |
Recommendation:
Choose Solar for green, low-maintenance operations.
Choose Hybrid for reliability with partial sustainability.
Choose Diesel for uninterrupted, heavy-duty lighting in harsh conditions.

FAQs
Q1: Can solar light towers operate in cloudy or rainy conditions?
A1: Yes, most units store enough energy to run for 24–36 hours on a full charge. Hybrid models extend runtime using diesel backup.
Q2: How long do batteries last?
A2: Lithium batteries last up to 3000 cycles; AGM batteries up to 1200–1500 cycles depending on depth of discharge.
Q3: Can I customize the light mast height or trailer size?
A3: Absolutely. Zhuoyue supports full customization including mast height, paint color, LED configuration, and logos.
Q4: How often do diesel hybrids need maintenance?
A4: Generators require servicing every 500–800 hours. Solar components need minimal attention—only basic cleaning.
