NESCO announces the launch of the SL80 Contractor Grade LED Stringlight, a rugged and flexible solution for temporary jobsite lighting. Designed to deliver reliable, uniform 5000K illumination, the SL80 is ideal for stairwells, workspaces, and lift shafts in both indoor and outdoor environments. Rated IP65 for water and dust resistance, each SL80 string is constructed from modular 1-metre segments containing 180 high-output LEDs per metre, so if one segment fails, the remainder keeps working.
