Imagine streetlights tough enough to laugh at a Category 5 hurricane and power your phone during blackouts. That’s exactly what Barbados and St. Lucia are installing ahead of this year’s storm season. These solar-powered explosion-proof lights survived 160 mph winds in lab tests and kept working even when half-submerged in saltwater.

Local fisherman Dwight Cole grinned: “Last year, a storm blew away our pier lights. These new ones? They stayed lit while palm trees flew past like kites!” Each light stores enough energy to run for 72 hours off-grid, doubling as emergency charging stations. led explosion proof lighting https://www.eneltec-led.com/products/led-explosion-proof-lights
