A new category in aviation obstruction lighting
Obelux is proud to announce the launch of the MI-P-LI 2000cd, the world’s first self-contained medium-intensity aviation obstruction light.
Designed for temporary, mobile, and challenging installations, the MI-P-LI 2000cd combines a medium-intensity aviation light, integrated battery system, intelligent controls, GPS synchronization, and monitoring functions into a single compact unit. For the first time, operators can deploy an ICAO-compliant 2,000 cd medium-intensity obstruction light without external battery cabinets or supporting power infrastructure.
The result is a breakthrough solution that simplifies deployment, reduces installation complexity, and creates new possibilities for temporary aviation marking applications.
Bringing medium-intensity lighting where power is not available
Medium-intensity obstruction lights are widely used to ensure the visibility of tall structures such as construction cranes, transmission towers, wind turbines, communication masts, bridges, and offshore installations.
Until now, deploying medium-intensity lighting in temporary applications has typically required separate batteries, control cabinets, generators, or extensive cabling.
The MI-P-LI 2000cd removes these barriers by integrating everything into a single rugged enclosure. The internal Li-Ion battery system provides weeks of autonomous operation while maintaining full medium-intensity performance and intelligent lighting functions.
Whether used for a wind turbine under construction, a temporary crane in an urban environment, or a remote infrastructure project, the MI-P-LI 2000cd delivers aviation-grade marking in a truly self-contained package.
Designed around simplicity
The MI-P-LI 2000cd was developed with a clear objective: make medium-intensity aviation lighting easier to deploy and manage.
Key features include:
- ICAO Medium-Intensity Type B compliant performance
- 2,000 cd red flashing output
- Integrated Li-Ion battery system
- Up to 38 days of autonomous operation
- GPS synchronized flashing
- Automatic photocell operation
- Optional remote connectivity & fault monitoring
- Offshore-ready design
- NVG-compatible infrared capability
Because all critical components are contained within the light itself, installation is faster, logistics are simpler, and operational flexibility is significantly increased.
A milestone for the aviation lighting industry
The launch of the MI-P-LI 2000cd represents more than a new product. It introduces an entirely new category of aviation obstruction lighting.
“Medium-intensity lighting has traditionally required external infrastructure that limits where and how quickly systems can be deployed,” says Vesa Laakso, CTO of Obelux.
“With the MI-P-LI 2000cd, we wanted to challenge that assumption. By integrating the battery system, controls, GPS synchronization and monitoring into a single unit, we have created the world’s first self-contained medium-intensity obstruction light. The result is a solution that gives operators a completely new level of flexibility while maintaining the reliability and aviation compliance they expect from Obelux products.”
The innovation is particularly valuable for temporary projects, remote locations, offshore environments, and applications where access to power is limited or unavailable.
Built for demanding applications
The MI-P-LI 2000cd has been engineered for real-world operating conditions where reliability is critical.
Typical applications include:
- Wind turbine construction and maintenance
- Temporary construction cranes
- Transmission and distribution towers
- Communication masts
- Bridge and infrastructure projects
- Offshore installations
- Emergency obstacle marking
With robust construction, advanced battery management, and proven Obelux LED technology, the system is designed to perform in demanding environments where dependable aviation marking is essential.
Experience the future of medium-intensity obstruction lighting
The MI-P-LI 2000cd marks the beginning of a new era in aviation obstruction lighting, bringing together medium-intensity performance and true deployment flexibility for the first time.
Portable when needed. Self-contained by design. Medium-intensity without compromise.
