Western Technology Launches the LINKaLIGHT Wide Area Stringer Light System

Aug 18, 2020

SEATTLE - August 18, 2020 - (Newswire.com)

Western Technology, Inc., a Washington-based company, has been providing work solutions for extreme work environments for over 42 years. Western Technology, the recognized leader in rugged portable lighting for “hazardous locations”, is proud to announce their LINKaLIGHT system for any non-hazardous location needs.

Recognizing the need for high-quality, ordinary location lighting while maintaining the same durability offered in their current “KICK IT TOUGH” line of lights, they are now introducing the LINKaLIGHT portable lighting system. This system allows the operator to position individual lights or to securely position multiples in a string light configuration, using only one power supply. Each light head has an astounding 6,000 lumens, drawing less than 1 amp, and offers the operator the flexibility of adding or removing light heads to extend up to 250 feet. In addition, each light head has a dimmer function for proper illumination of variable size workspaces.

The LINKaLIGHT is perfect in tunnels, tanks, silos, boilers, drydocks, airplane interiors, scaffolding installs and walkways where rugged, portable lighting is critical during construction, inspection and maintenance. Marine, industrial and aviation contractors will no longer need to settle for fragile, bulky, difficult-to-position, portable lighting.

WT is known for their quality, so it’s no surprise that the LINKaLIGHT comes with weatherproof electrical couplings that protect against electrical shortage. In addition, each light is equipped with their signature rubber bumpers for added protection. Protective lenses and multiple mounting options have been carefully designed to support the needs in various spaces, offering the versatility expected with the KICK IT TOUGH lights.

Western Technology’s LINKaLIGHT highlights include:

Reliability: Like all of Western Technology’s devices the LINKaLIGHT is made to have “tool-like” reliability
Durability: It is machined out of solid blocks of 6061-T6 aluminum
Lighting Power: Each light head has the lighting strength of 6000 lumens
Ready When Needed: All-weather reliability used individually or linked together
Proudly made in the USA

Growing up in poverty in Hong Kong’s New Territories in the 1960s, as one of eight children born into an arranged marriage, her first memories are of physical abuse at the hands of her jealous mother. “When they were forced to marry at the age of 21, my father was in love with another woman, whom he never quite forgot about,” says Tang, now 63. “It drove my mother crazy. It made her furious that I was my father’s favourite – she hated me because he...

Tennis tournament hopes to entice aspiring Alex Ealas

Tennis is receiving much attention these days due mainly to Filipino player Alex Eala who continues to make the country proud in international tournaments. This is partly why the Philippine Columbian Association (PCA) is optimistic that it will draw over a thousand entries for the 43rd PCA Open 2026. The annual tennis tournament is special this year as it has partnered with Palawan Group of Companies whose founder and chair Bobby Castro is committed to supporting Filipino athletes and the growth of local sports. “Earlier this year, in May, we held the Palawan Open where many players, both seasoned and starting, competed. Aside from the prizes at stake, it was a venue for veteran players to showcase their talents and inspire the youth,” Castro said in his opening remarks. Eala’s participation in Pala-wan-supported tournaments early in her career also highlights the value of local competitions. “Here at Palawan Group, we believe that Filipinos have so much potential. We just need to provide opportunities for them to develop their skills, gain experience, and show the country, and maybe later, the world, what they can do,” Castro said. “This is one of the reasons why we are proud to support the Palawan PCA Open as a major sponsor. For us, this isn’t just about supporting this tournament but it is also about supporting the athletes themselves and helping create more opportunities for Filipino talent to grow,” he added. Dubbed the “Wimbledon of the Philippines,” the PCA Open will run from Nov. 2 to Dec. 13, at the PCA clay courts in Paco, Manila. The tournament is expected to draw more than 1,000 entries across eight categories. The junior events begin on Nov. 2, while the men’s and women’s Open main draws are scheduled Dec. 5 to 13. Founded in 1907, the PCA has a long history of bringing people together through sports and community, with tennis remaining an important part of its tradition. The PCA Open continues to bring together players of different ages and skill levels, from junior competitors to those vying for the men’s and women’s Open titles. “We want to keep the sport accessible, give players opportunities to compete, and inspire more Filipinos to experience the excitement of the game. We thank Palawan Group for supporting this shared goal,” said Ivan Ong, PCA Open Committee representative. Athletes devote years to training and development, demonstrating discipline, dedication, and perseverance. Each player who steps onto the court brings extensive experience while continuing to refine and elevate their skills. “We want to support that journey and help give our athletes more opportunities to compete and excel. At the same time, we also want to encourage more Filipinos, especially the youth, to excel in tennis,” Castro said. During the tournament launch on Oct. 15, members of the media participated in a mini-tennis clinic, where coaches and young tennis players introduced them to the fundamentals of the sport through a series of on-court activities. “As a proudly Filipino company, we see supporting Philippine tennis as another way to put our commitment to the communities we serve into action,” said Bernard Kaibigan, chief marketing officer of the Palawan Group of Companies. “Beyond the tournament itself, we hope initiatives like the Palawan PCA Open will encourage more Filipinos to discover the sport and see it as something they can learn, enjoy, and pursue,” Kaibigan added. By backing established tournaments such as the PCA Open, Palawan Group hopes to help sustain opportunities for Filipino players. Additional information and tournament updates are available through the official social media accounts of the Palawan PCA 43rd Open.
