Strathcona Airport

[In reference to Avlite radio controlled obstruction lighting]

“They are really neat to watch come on, they come on instantly and are a great addition to our pilot training school. The lights are currently set on medium intensity as high intensity is very bright.”

Airport Staff
St Lucie International Airport

“We did install all of the lights. We even used a few red lights as obstruction markers on top of 68 meter power line towers. I finally found a high quality camera and took some photos. I will send them to you as soon as I can download them. We submitted some additional light orders to our contracting office, so you can expect to receive a bit solicitation from them soon. The lights are working great and we appreciate the support.”

[In reference to a visit to the Avlite production facilities]

“On arrival at Avlite I was greeted by sales manager Sharon Bedson, and was treated like a VIP. I was given a tour of the production line and had a close look, and an in-depth explanation of all the components of the Avlite system. The staff were fantastic and very helpful. It was truly fascinating and I now have a good story to tell Wanarn community members on my return. I was also shown the vast range of solar system lights and other products that they make.”

“I have recommended Avlite solar lighting systems to many local communities and Avlite will be my first stop shop if the community needs anything regarding solar power in the future. Well done, and thank you Avlite.”

“The lights are working awesome! I am on R&R right now, but I will shoot you another email when I return to theatre to address additional lights. Thanks!”

[In reference to AV70 Radio Controlled Solar Airfield Lights and Avlite Airfield Markers installed at Warnarn Airstrip]

“Our thanks and gratitude to RADS & RASP funding and Sharon Bedson from Avlite. Without Sharon’s help and determination to overcome the remote logistical challenges, none of this would be possible.”

“The lights have been installed and are working just fine. In fact they are turning out to be some of the better solar taxiway lights that we have used to date (and we have gone through about three different brands). Very effective in the evenings with the illumination near that of the incandescent. In fact I will be needing some additional lights...”

Operations Supervisor
International Airport

“We have had the AV70 Avlite solar powered lights installed on the Seeley Lake airport for about 3 years now. They are a very well built, durable product. We had a small airplane land on the snow and skid over 4 of the lights breaking them apart. When we brought them back to the shop and untangled them 3 of the 4 lights still worked and our mechanic was able to re-wire the 4th light and get it working again. With a little clear RTV we were able to put them all back in service.”

“Queensland Health have had the windtalker operating at the Prince Charles Hospital Helicopter Landing Site for approximately 6 months now and the feed back from emergency helicopter pilots such as EMQ and Careflight has been extremely positive. With the added function of checking statics such as wind speed, direction and diagnostic checks etc... the windtalker has been a useful tool, aiding to the safe operations of helicopter patient transfers to the Prince Charles Hospital. Many thanks for another fine product.”

“The lights are working fantastic thus far and we have had no issues.”

[Re: Afghanistan RF Controlled Obstruction Lights]

“I have just got back to Afghanistan and picked up your lights and radio controller from Kandahar. They are exactly what we wanted and should do a great job out here.”

“In addition to the AV70 airstrip lights we purchased, the windsock lighting kit is great - just what we needed. It lights up the sock perfectly.”

Kathy Dyer
Heli-Muster (NT) Pty Ltd

“I am pleased to inform you that the windsock light we purchased and installed at Louth last July has not given one ounce of trouble since it was installed.”

Les Harding
Services Technical Officer
Bourke Shire Council

“I would recommend that you consider Avlite as a possible source for your lighting needs. I have had outstanding success using many of their lighting systems. Their factory representatives have been available 24/7 for any lighting problems that needed solving. I have responsibilities for maintaining four army airfields. You can not go wrong in using them! Also, on a more important note, Avlite is a better light, is less expensive, the shipping is less, and most importantly, Avlite ensures they get here when they say they will…It will make your airfield maintenance life a lot easier.”

Airfield Safety Officer, Speicher AAF

“The lights (AV70) are working great. They are a significant improvement to our current taxiway lighting system providing bright, clear maintenance free lighting. The tower, pilots, ground crew and operations staff are pleased with their operation during the first 6 months”

Morland Williams, Mechanical Engineer
Grantley Adams International Airport

[Re: installation of 440 units of AV70 lights and Avlite stake mount systems]

“I also wanted to let you know I took a tour out to the ramp where the lights are being installed, and I got a lot of positive feedback! The project OIC said that they had no trouble installing them, and the whole area looks great at night! He also said that some of the end users were impressed as well. We appreciate getting such a strong product especially with the great support that came along with it.”

“As The Prince Charles Hospital is the heart specialist hospital in Queensland it was important that we increased our services by constructing a state of the art helipad to deliver better service to the Queensland public. The most impressive thing I liked about Avlite products was the quality and ease of installation.”

“The Runway Lights are awesome. They look phenomenal and everyone here is very impressed with the way they look and their capability. I am glad they had good things to say. The lights work magnificently.”

“...As the airfield lighting tech, I can say that I am impressed with your products thus far. We are using your (Avlite) solar sign lights to light the airfield signs, and while I was skeptical at first; they are a very positive addition to our runway. I'm very impressed with their quality and effectiveness.”

“Thank you again for all your help it's been great conversing back and forth to make this happen. This product is definitely going to make flight safety here at (location removed) even better.”

“I do appreciate all of your efforts supporting us here in the AOR. A lot of what we do relies on the support of the civilian sector to make us efficient and safe in our operations.”

[Re: After a period of more than nine months evaluating the AV70 model taxiway edge lights]

“We have had great success with the self-contained LED light units.”

Jim Patterson
Project Manager
FAA Technical Center

“The lights remain set up on runway 18/36 and have been exposed to the elements. Even during periods of reduced visibility due to overcast and drizzle the lights have exceeded our minimum requirements for emergency runway lighting.”

Roger Rudduck
Senior Base Pilot
Royal Flying Doctor Service
Charleville Base

“With reference to the solar lights that are being used at the Coen Airport for runway lights. I find them exceptionally good and reasonably hassle free in times of bad weather and poor sunlight conditions. More over it is what the pilots think. We are frequently used by the Royal Flying Doctor Service and they tell me that they are very good and can be seen from the air as far out as thirty kilometers even on very moonlight nights. I myself would have no hesitation in recommending these lights for runway use on rural airports.”

W.H. Rofe, Airport Manager
Coen Airfield

“The solar-powered LED lights are significantly better than the battery powered lights previously used due to better visibility.”
