Hybrid Energy Systems
Our FOBGrid tactical hybrid energy systems are designed to provide sustained and silent AC or DC power for forward-deployed troops and facilities in austere environments with minimal infrastructure. Ruggedized and engineered to a range of military specifications, the compact units feature built-in battery management systems and can be re-energised from a variety of external sources, including 12/24V vehicle supplies, AC, and solar and wind power.
These proven systems have been certified for air transportation and are currently in service around the world with NATO members.

Tactical Lighting Solutions
The FOBLite range of rapidly-deployable tactical lighting systems is designed to reduce both the energy consumption and logistical footprint of early-entry missions. With SWaP-optimized designs and significantly lowered thermal and acoustic signatures, the robust lighting systems can be powered by standard in-service radio batteries and have been engineered to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
FOBLite tactical lighting solutions are available in a variety of form factors:
FOBLite HQ – low-SWaP lighting for field headquarters and other fixed and semi-fixed infrastructure, featuring green and white LED options and powered by either AC or DC sources
FOBLite 360 – portable system with integrated energy storage and over 12,000 lumens of adjustable output, providing 360-degree area lighting, directional floodlighting, long-distance spot lighting or a combination of all three
FOBLite 360 MAX – 120 or 240V AC powered portable system, with up to 85,000 lumen output and smart energy transfer system for daisy chaining of multiple systems
