  • Patent number: 11959616
    Abstract: A light tower includes a base, an extendible mast coupled to the base, a battery pack supported on the base and including a plurality of lithium-ion battery cells, a light assembly including a plurality of light emitting diodes electrically coupled to the battery pack, a display configured to receive inputs and display information, and a controller in communication with the battery pack, the light assembly, and the display. The configured being to: receive a light intensity change input from the display, change a power provided by the battery pack to the light emitting diodes in response to the light intensity change input, and display on the display a change in runtime resulting from the change of the power provided by the battery pack to the light emitting diodes.

  • Publication number: 20230228228
    Abstract: A method for recalibrating an engine includes querying an engine for a unique engine identifier, sending the unique engine identifier to a cloud-based server, determining one or more engine calibration settings available to the engine based on the unique engine identifier sent to the cloud-based server, presenting the one or more engine calibration settings to a user through a user interface so that the user may select a desired engine calibration setting, sending the desired engine calibration setting as selected by the user to an electronic control unit of the engine, and replacing a current engine calibration with the desired engine calibration setting in the electronic control unit of the engine.

  • Patent number: 8186314
    Abstract: The invention provides to a cooling system and a method of cooling an engine-driven generator. The engine-driven generator includes an engine, a current generator, and a housing. The engine includes an engine air intake, and the current generator includes a generator air intake. The housing includes a first outlet, a second outlet, a first air passageway, and a second air passageway. The first air passageway is in communication with the second air passageway. The second air passageway partitions air into a first stream supplied to the engine air intake and a second stream supplied to the generator air intake. The first stream exits through the first outlet, and the second stream exits through the second outlet.
