Devos Lights Up Oshkosh

Devos Outdoor is making life a little brighter this year at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.

The Springville, Utah, company donated 16 portable and compact Devos LightRanger 2000 lights to use on the AirVenture grounds, including eight for facilities and eight for security. And if EAA decides they work well for their purpose, Devos will donate more lights next year, said Collin Child, Devos’ community manager of marketing.

“Lightweight, powerful lights are usually bound to an extension cord,” Collin said. “But the LightRanger 2000 light can be taken anywhere. They’re an off-grid solution when you are not tethered to power, and a great tool for lighting up big areas.”

The lights have a lithium-ion battery and are USB-C rechargeable. The lights weigh only 5 pounds and can extend to 10 feet tall. Operated remotely with Bluetooth, one person can control the light’s color, brightness, and more, even turning them all off or on at once.

Each light costs about $300.

Collin said Devos Outdoors decided to donate the lights to EAA because of its nonprofit status and all the organization does for advocacy, education, and its members.

Devos also wanted to support the member experience.

“For some people, attending AirVenture is a once-in-a-lifetime experience,” he said, noting that generators that power lights can by noisy and take away from that experience.

The Devos booth, No. 4056, can be found in DeltaHawk Engines Exhibit Hangar D, Aisle E.
