Life Saving Light for First Responders and Emergency Personnel

Salt Lake City, UT, September 26, 2015 --(PR.com)-- ZyntonyTM is preparing to launch a unique type of handheld light, which they call the “Torch”. Although it has been primarily designed for outdoor adventuring, this portable, bright light will allow first responders, firefighters, police officers and military personnel to provide reliable light in emergency situations. Benson Energy announces full support for this product launch. “We see a great potential for this portable torch to provide the light first responders need in emergency situations,” remarked DW Crosby, president of Benson Energy.

The Zyntony Torch produces a super bright, warm light using 20 Cree LEDs which are designed to deliver up to 4,000 lumens of light in a 360-degree arc, with independent control over each 90-degree quadrant. This quadrant control allows directional control of the light as needed, and a dimming feature allows the light to be adjusted from super bright down to a warm glow. This can provide room flooding light, or a soft glow for comforting individual patients.

The torch is highly portable, handling like a long, slim flashlight, making it easy to slip into a bag or backpack, unlike bulky lanterns, reducing personnel fatigue and reducing response time when transporting lighting equipment to a dark emergency scene. Carabiner and paracord loops allow users to hang or secure the Zyntony Torch to gear for lighting and/or easy carrying. Its rugged, waterproof design ensures light whenever and wherever needed.

One unique feature of this light is the ability to be controlled via Bluetooth. This feature could allow the light to be placed in an area and dimmed or powered on and off remotely. The app can also be used to send Morse code messages with the torch’s intense beacon mode.

Rechargeable batteries run up to 45 days on a single charge, providing reliability and efficiency. A built in USB plug can be used for charging electronic devices.
The torch is currently in a pre-launch phase sourced through Kickstarter, a crowdfunding organization. Those who pledge to back the product during this phase can order at the torch at a significant savings, up to 45% off MSRP. Currently the campaign has over five hundred supporters and over one hundred thousand dollars in pledges. More information about the torch and the product launch can be found at adventuretorch.com.

Benson Energy (founded 1992) is focused on energy saving products and processes, primarily residential. The All Season Control Cover, chimney top masonry fireplace damper system is the primary product manufactured by Benson Energy. Benson Energy also focuses on emergency preparedness issues and marketing products such as Jim Phillips Winter Foam Clothing. The Zyntony Torch is unique and of special interest to the Benson Energy marketing team because of its lifesaving potential in emergency situations for civilians, first responders in search and rescue, fire fighting, signaling operations, and in military and industrial applications. "This product could help save lives," Crosby says. "We hope to help the Zyntony team raise the initial funds they need to launch this incredible product and help keep the cost down for consumers and emergency personnel."
