Metrolite SLT-490 Solar Light Tower | Eco-Friendly Event & Site Lighting

$28,749.99

Reliable, Sustainable Illumination for Demanding Environments

When your event, construction site, or emergency response effort runs past sundown, dependable lighting isn't a luxury—it's a necessity. The Metrolite SLT-490 Solar LED Light Tower is the professional's choice for powerful, eco-friendly illumination without the noise, emissions, or fuel costs of traditional equipment. We know you need gear that just works, and this tower is designed from the ground up to harness the power of the sun, allowing you to create better, more sustainable projects.

 

Features That Make a Difference

 

  • Powerful, All-Night Illumination: From load-out to the last guest, you need light you can count on. The SLT-490 is equipped with four bright 90-watt LED lamps that deliver outstanding visibility. More importantly, it has the power to last through the entire night, offering up to 12 hours of continuous runtime at full power or an extended 16 hours at a 65W setting.

  • Advanced Solar Power System: This isn't just any solar setup. The tower features two double-sided solar panels built with a monocrystal formation. For you, this means more efficient energy generation, as the panels can absorb reflected sun rays, not just direct ones. You can also position the panels in multiple orientations, a critical feature for maximizing sun capture in different environments and at different times of the year.

  • Set-It-and-Forget-It Operation: Your focus should be on the event, not the equipment. With its automatic dusk-to-dawn sensor, the SLT-490 manages itself. It powers on as light fades and switches off in the morning to begin charging, ensuring you have light when you need it without any manual intervention.

  • Built for the Field: Event and construction sites are unforgiving environments. That's why the SLT-490 is constructed with a powder-coated steel exterior and a galvanized mast, providing extreme durability and protection against the elements. With a maximum wind rating of 62 mph, you can trust it to remain stable and operational when the weather turns.

 

Perfect For Any Occasion

 

This solar light tower is a versatile workhorse, perfectly suited for a wide range of applications. Whether you're illuminating a multi-day outdoor event, ensuring safety on a construction site, or providing critical light in an emergency situation, the SLT-490 delivers a cost-effective and sustainable lighting solution without relying on traditional fossil fuels.

One Simple Price

At Event Ready Supply, we're not just passionate about providing top-tier equipment; we're dedicated to making your entire experience, from browsing to delivery, as smooth and predictable as possible.

We’ve all been there: you find the perfect item, carefully plan your budget, and head to checkout only to be hit with confusing calculations and surprisingly high shipping costs. We believe there’s a better, more transparent way to do business.

Our All-in Pricing Philosophy

That’s why we’ve built our business around a straightforward, all-in pricing model. We’ve bundled the cost of shipping, including standard freight (if necessary) directly into the product price. This approach is designed with your project and peace of mind at the forefront.

  • No More Surprises: The price you see on the product page is the real price for your item, delivered. You can shop with the confidence that there are no hidden handling fees or last-minute shipping costs to worry about.

  • Effortless Budgeting: Knowing your landed cost upfront makes planning your project simple. There's no need to guess or wait until the final checkout step to understand your total investment.

  • A Streamlined Experience: We want you to spend your valuable time focusing on your work, not deciphering complex shipping charts. Our pricing model simplifies your entire purchasing process.

How Your Delivery Works

To maintain this simplicity, it’s important to understand how our standard delivery service operates.

If freight is required for shipment

Our pricing is structured to cover the entire journey of your order via standard freight to a location with a loading dock. This is the most efficient method and its cost is already included in your price.

Don't have a loading dock? No problem. For locations without one, the delivery truck requires a lift-gate to safely lower your order to the ground. When you check out, our system will ask if you have a loading dock. If not, this essential lift-gate service will be added to your total for a clear, flat rate.

Please note that our standard delivery is Threshold Service. This means the driver is responsible for getting the item to the curb or off the back of the truck. They are not equipped to bring items inside your building, unpack, or perform assembly. Please contact us if you would like White Glove delivery.

Our Commitment to You

Our goal is simple: to provide you with exceptional products and an honest, straightforward purchasing experience to match. By taking the guesswork out of shipping, we hope to be a partner you can truly trust.
