The EVOLUTION II LED TwistLock Telescopic Poles combine high-output EVOLUTION II LED scene lighting with Fire Research Corporation's rugged telescopic pole systems, providing elevated illumination for fire apparatus, rescue vehicles, and specialty response units. Designed to place powerful scene lighting above apparatus obstructions, these telescoping systems allow responders to quickly position light exactly where it is needed while maximizing coverage and reducing shadows at emergency scenes.
Built from maintenance-free anodized aluminum, FRC telescopic poles feature 360° rotation and the exclusive patented TwistLock mechanism, which securely locks the pole in position without the risk of jamming or over-tightening. Combined with the EVOLUTION II lamphead, which delivers up to 20,000 raw lumens of bright white light, the system provides dependable elevated scene lighting with exceptional durability, ease of operation, and long service life.
