Dropped, kicked and beaten but HEMIPRO LEDs<br />

outshine anything else on the market<br />

One of the first automotive workshops<br />

to adopt the rugged new HEMIPRO<br />

High Power Worklights reports that they<br />

have defied all efforts to kill them and they<br />

continue to provide much better light than<br />

ever before.<br />

“They have been dropped, kicked,<br />

knocked, thrown and they are still shining<br />

brightly. They are bloody excellent,” says<br />

Cameron Brooks, of Brooks Motors,<br />

Albury’s Suzuki dealership and Landrover<br />

specialists.<br />

“Previously we used normal LED<br />

portable lights, but since we got<br />

HEMIPROs the other ones have stayed on<br />

the shelf. These are much better, because<br />

not only are they tougher, but also they<br />

provide a significantly broader spectrum of<br />

light and much greater clarity.”<br />

“The older blokes here used to grizzle<br />

that sometimes they couldn’t see things<br />

properly under the bonnet, and had to<br />

take them outside so they could. Now they<br />

are real happy,” said Mr Brooks.<br />

Manufactured by Cliplight and<br />

being introduced to Australasia by GO<br />

Distribution, HEMIPRO worklights are<br />

designed to provide 10 years or more of<br />

optimum clarity and safety in maintenance<br />

tasks.<br />

They incorporate the first use of<br />

high-power LEDs in work lights for the<br />

automotive repair market, with strong<br />

benefits also for applications such as<br />

industrial heavy vehicle, electrical, farm<br />

and machinery maintenance workshops.<br />

Their retail appeal is further enhanced<br />

by their being highly appropriate for<br />

consumer use around campsites,<br />

caravans and the booming number of<br />

recreational vehicles and associated<br />

activities.<br />

So outstanding is their performance<br />

that they were selected as a “Product of<br />

the Month” by the USA’s Professional<br />

Tool and Equipment News magazine,<br />

circulation 104,000.<br />

Using either two or three High Power<br />

LEDS, the HEMIPRO 2 LED and 3 LED<br />

work lights provide exceptionally powerful<br />

beams which, respectively, equal or<br />

exceed the light area intensity of a 60W or<br />

75W beam, says GO Distribution Director<br />

Mr Gary Oborne.<br />

“What really sets the HEMIPRO lights<br />

apart, however, is the patent-pending,<br />

uniquely engineered hemispherical lens<br />

design, which refracts the LEDs into<br />

an exceptionally clean, bright and wide<br />

beam. The highly modified lens design<br />

captures and transfers the powerful LED<br />

light into a super-wide 70 deg beam, while<br />

also eliminating hot spots, dull areas or<br />

irritating halo rings.”<br />

Cameron Brooks says these qualities<br />

will be an advantage in the prestige and<br />

show work his company undertakes<br />

(including drag race vehicles and a<br />

custom Harley that won Best <strong>Bike</strong> at the<br />

Sydney <strong>Bike</strong> Show.<br />

With the attention to detail required<br />

carrying out the day to day servicing of<br />

vehicles it is essential to have the best<br />

workshop lighting available.<br />

Designed to provide high performance<br />

for 10 years or more of normal use,<br />

HEMIPRO incorporates features to help<br />

ensure its longevity including:<br />

• Tough polycarbonate patent-pending<br />

LUMIGUARD lens shield. This protects<br />

the lens and can be easily and quickly<br />

replaced if it gets scratched, cracked<br />

or tarnished. Rather than throwing away<br />

the entire work light, users can simply<br />

replace the LUMIGUARD in less than<br />

two minutes.<br />

• Similarly, the super strong NiMH 2500<br />

milliAmp hour battery in the 2 LED and<br />

3 LED cordless models are rechargeable<br />

and replaceable.<br />

However, replacement will not happen<br />

too often, says GO Distribution, because<br />

as the battery has a life expectancy of<br />

three years under normal use. The 2<br />

LED can be used up to five hours<br />

between charges. The 3 LED is good for<br />

three hours between charges. Even the<br />

360° swivel hook can be replaced.<br />

Designed by the international Cliplight<br />

Manufacturing Company, which is now in<br />

its fourth decade of producing top quality<br />

worklights, HEMI PRO complements<br />

an innovative range of HVAC products<br />

available from GO Distribution, including<br />

Super Seal sealants that help remove<br />

the need for expensive fault-chasing<br />

and repairs to commercial, industrial<br />

and automotive air conditioning and<br />

refrigeration systems.<br />
