Product Description

Larson Electronics 65' Self-contained Megatower™ on Skid Mount - (20) MH Lamps - Auto Retract/Sync'd Controls - Anchor

Description

The LM-SMWB-HLM65-20X1000W-MH-SYNC from Larson Electronics is a high-powered, skid-mounted lighting solution designed for challenging environments such as construction sites, mining, and large outdoor events. This unit features twenty 1,000-watt metal halide lamps producing a massive 2,200,000 lumens, ensuring complete coverage of expansive areas. With an adjustable mast extending up to 65 feet (74 feet including light assembly), the light tower provides elevated, high-intensity illumination for demanding applications.

This light tower can be configured in 120/240V single-phase, 240/120V three-phase, or 208/120V three-phase power setups. Sync’d controls allow for single-point management of multiple towers, streamlining operations across large sites. Built with robust materials, this mast can be collapsed to 22 feet for easy transport and storage.

The unit is equipped with an auto-retract feature triggered by high winds. This innovative wind-monitoring system retracts the mast when wind speeds reach 40 mph, protecting both equipment and personnel. Additionally, with a comprehensive cold weather package, including de-icing hydraulic lines and a battery heating blanket, this light plant performs optimally in sub-zero conditions.

Key Features

  • Powerful Metal Halide Illumination: Produces 2,200,000 lumens to brighten wide areas.
  • Automated Wind Safety: Auto-retract at 40 mph wind speeds, adjustable to preferred height after retraction.
  • Sync’d Control Compatibility: Seamless integration with multiple units for synchronized control.
  • Rugged Skid Mount: Steel frame skid mount with industrial-grade paint for rust and corrosion resistance.
  • Weather-Resistant Construction: IP-rated for extreme cold, rain, and wind exposure.

Customer photo review of Forax Gas Powered Mulcher | Model GP40 | 40" Cutting Width | 14-15 HP | For Tractors

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops. Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!

TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

Forax Ultralight Mulcher | Model HP40 | Cutting Width 40" | Carrier 2-4-Ton | For Excavators

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
