THE OFF-ROAD OPERATION OF PORTABLE TRAFFIC LIGHT
The dual purpose radio remote controller allows programming of the traffic light and pairing of multiple sets. The PTL3 uses a long-life lithium iron phosphate battery to deliver up to 15 hours of continuous operation per charge. For extended operation, you can add an optional external battery to more than double the available battery life. The traffic light is rechargeable via a 12V or 24V vehicle for on-site convenience or via a battery charger and mains power.
