NLT recently introduced its second-generation all-in-one mining cap lamp, the Genesis. The lamp’s design includes the ability to integrate tracking tags while keeping the battery and light source in a single enclosure. Mine operators can choose from a number of standard RFID or Wi-Fi tags, powered by the cap lamp’s high-capacity battery. Using the same contemporary design as NLT’s Polaris lamp (shown here), the Genesis provides a light pattern that’s consistent with all NLT lamps, providing a focused spot. The Genesis is currently being field-tested and will be available in October 2012, and an intrinsically safe version approved for use in coal mines is also in the product pipeline. www.nltinc.com
