First Responder Products, Inc. Becomes Dealer for Polarion-USA, Offering High Intensity Discharge Searchlights

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - First Responder Products, Inc. announced today that, as part of its continuing efforts to become an industry leader in providing high-tech products and solutions to the first responder community, it has become a dealer for Polarion High Intensity Discharge (commonly called HID) searchlights, the world’s highest quality handheld HID portable searchlights available today. In HID lamps, light is produced by passing a current through a metal vapor. This allows the electric arc to generate extremely high temperatures, causing metallic elements within the gas atmosphere to vaporize and release large amounts of visible radiant energy.

“We are very excited for First Responder Products to become a dealer and participate in our growth,” said Ken Good, President of Polarion-USA, the distributor of emergent Polarion HID products. “First responders and security professionals need powerful searchlights they can deploy for extended periods of time,” Mr. Good said. “When weight and space are limiting factors, the Polarion lights are the tools to reach for. Despite their relatively small size, operators can maintain unparalleled light output for extended periods of time while maintaining maximum situational awareness.”

“The Polarion series is a welcome addition to our growing specialty products line,” said First Responder Products’ Chief Operating Officer, Richard Reincke. “We are committed to introducing new products to equip first responders to meet the challenges they face in the field.”

The beam quality of the Polarian HID searchlight is considered the best in the industry by many first responders. The reflector was shaped to give the user an excellent combination of “throw” and overall coverage. The searchlights are ideal for large area search and rescue operations, and long-range identification requirements such as vehicle checkpoints, border security, and assault operations. The Polarion series replaces cumbersome spotlights with incredibly small ballast components, highest quality reflectors and state of the art internal components and can be easily transported in small cases, packs, or attached to a first responder’s load bearing vest. Reliable, rugged, efficient and waterproof, Polarion HID products are the new standard in handheld HID searchlights.
