What is a solar light tower?

A solar light tower (or solar light plant) is a mobile trailer or cart with a solar array, battery bank, mast, and LED flood lights. It lights construction sites, mines, events, and other off-grid locations without running a diesel engine all night.

Are Solight solar light towers made in Arizona?

Yes. Solight builds most of its solar light towers in Arizona. Our street address for quotes and pickup coordination is 419 E. Juanita Ave #102, Mesa, AZ 85204.

How much can solar save vs diesel?

On our homepage math — 10 hours/day, 5 days/week, 52 weeks, diesel at $5.79/gal, refuel about every 5 days — diesel fuel + labor + servicing is about $16,371/year versus about $400/year servicing for solar. Ask for a job-specific quote; fuel prices and duty cycles vary.

Can I rent a solar light tower near Phoenix or Las Vegas?

Yes. We rent across Arizona, California, Utah, and Nevada, with delivery quoted from Mesa. Call 480-626-2044 or use the rental page to start a quote.

Do you sell and ship nationwide?

Yes. Purchase orders ship nationwide. Rentals are focused on Arizona, California, Utah, and Nevada (with Texas delivery also quoted when it fits).

Which model do I need for a construction jobsite?

Many civil and building sites start with the SLT-1200 / SLT-1800 class (about 68,000 lumens, 30 ft mast). Large yards and dual-coverage pads often need the SLT-2500. Tight lots and event staging often fit the SLT-450. We size from your map and hours-after-dusk, not from a one-size SKU.

How long will a solar light tower run at night?

Runtime depends on array size, battery kWh, LED load, and weather. Mid-size Solight towers are commonly used for dusk-to-dawn construction lighting with multi-day autonomy in normal conditions; hybrid SLT-4100H adds generator backup when the site wants solar-first with a safety net.

Are these garden solar lights?

No. Solight products are industrial solar light towers / light plants for construction, mining, events, and military use — towable or cart-based platforms with kilowatt-hour battery banks, not patio path lights.

What are your hours and how do I get a quote?

Monday–Friday, 8:00 am–5:00 pm Arizona time. Email cs@solight.com or call 480-626-2044. Include city, date

Light Tower Rental Near Me | Solar, Arizona

Solar Light Tower Rental in Arizona — Delivered from Mesa

Searching for a light tower rental near you in Arizona? Solight rents portable solar light towers, the light plants crews already know, without the diesel engine. We deliver from Mesa to Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, Chandler, Goodyear, Tucson and across AZ, CA, UT and NV. Each Arizona-built tower uses LED floods on a telescoping mast, lithium batteries and an onboard solar array, with dusk-to-dawn timers so nobody has to babysit it.

What you actually rent (and why it is not a diesel fleet unit)

National rental houses such as Sunbelt, United, and Herc stock diesel light towers because that is what their branch network already services. You pay by the day for a noisy, fuel-hungry machine that still needs someone to start it, refuel it, and call for a breakdown. A Solight rental is different: you are renting a manufacturer-built solar tower from the factory that made it, not a depreciated diesel asset from a mixed fleet. Construction crews still call these units light plants; on this page we mean the same machine as a solar light tower.

Typical equipment on a Solight rental includes high-efficiency LED flood lights on a telescoping mast, a lithium battery bank sized for dusk-to-dawn runtime, and an adjustable solar array that recharges during Arizona sun. Digital timers or dusk-to-dawn photocells handle the night cycle so the tower is not a babysitting job for a night superintendent.

Delivery, setup, and dusk-to-dawn operation

Solight stages rentals from 419 E. Juanita Ave #102, Mesa, AZ 85204. Hours are 8am–5pm Monday through Friday, Arizona time (no daylight-saving shift). For metro Phoenix we typically deliver, spot the trailer, raise the mast, and confirm the photocell/timer so the lights come on at dusk and drop at dawn. Remote Arizona jobs (mines, highway packages, border-adjacent yards) get the same factory support — you are not waiting on a national-brand branch to find a working unit.

Because the tower is solar, you do not schedule a fuel truck every five days. That matters on locked jobsites, tribal land, and DOT night closures where a diesel refill is a second mobilization.

Diesel cost contrast (homepage math, 2026 fuel)

Leaving a diesel light tower running is the expensive part, not the rental line on the PO. Using the same basis as our homepage solar-vs-diesel comparison — 10 hours a day, 5 days a week, 52 weeks, diesel at $5.79/gallon, refuel every 5 days — a conventional diesel tower runs about $16,371 per year in fuel, refueling labor, and servicing. The solar equivalent is about $400 per year in servicing, with $0 fuel. Renting solar does not magically zero every cost, but it removes the fuel-and-labor line that diesel rental never shows you until the invoices stack up.

Arizona, Phoenix, and Mesa — manufacturer on the ground

Solight is not a drop-ship reseller. Towers are Made in the USA at our Mesa shop. We rent locally in Arizona, California, Utah, and Nevada and sell/ship nationwide. If you are comparing a Phoenix solar light tower rental against a diesel branch quote, you are comparing a factory unit built for this climate against a generic fleet machine. Heat, dust, and long summer days are why lithium + high-angle solar actually works here.

We also sell the same models. Many contractors rent first on a project, then purchase once the superintendent sees dusk-to-dawn runtime without a fuel ticket. Say so on the quote request if you want a rent-to-purchase conversation.

Outside Arizona: Nevada, California, Utah, and Texas

Solight also rents across Nevada, California, and Utah, and delivers solar light towers into Texas, including Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston. Texas jobs are quoted from the Mesa factory — not a local Texas yard. See solar light tower rental Texas.
