light tower

Portable work floodlight

A light tower is a portable structure with powerful lights mounted on an extendable mast, used to illuminate construction sites, nighttime roadwork, outdoor events, or emergency scenes.

The unit typically includes a generator and can be towed to wherever temporary lighting is needed: Three light towers kept the crew working through the night.
