LI-300 vs LI-TP-200: Which Light Is Right for Your Task?

Litenza Sales TeamFeb 28, 20265 min read

Both compact and single-person deployable, the LI-300 and LI-TP-200 solve different lighting problems — one is a freestanding tripod tower, the other a remote-aimed light that mounts to an existing surface.

How They Deploy Differently

The LI-300 is a freestanding tripod light, extending from 1.25m to 3.1m in under 10 seconds on its own legs — no mounting surface required. The LI-TP-200 attaches via a magnetic base to an existing iron or steel surface, then aims remotely rather than standing independently.

Coverage Style

The LI-300 delivers broad, wide-angle illumination from its position — suited to general area coverage. The LI-TP-200 delivers a more directed beam that can be remotely aimed across 360° horizontal and 180° vertical range, suited to targeting a specific point rather than washing a wide area.

When to Choose the LI-300

Open ground with no suitable mounting surface nearby, or tasks needing broad area coverage rather than a specific targeted beam — general site lighting, access routes, and work zones without a convenient vertical metal surface to mount to.

When to Choose the LI-TP-200

Sites with an available mounting surface — machinery, a gantry, a vehicle, a structural beam — especially where remote aiming without repositioning matters, or where floor space for a tripod footprint isn't available. See our remote-aimed lighting guide for more on this trade-off.

Both Share IP66 Protection

Both units are IP66 rated, so weather resistance isn't a differentiator between them — the choice comes down to deployment style and beam coverage need, not durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the fundamental difference between the LI-300 and LI-TP-200?

The LI-300 is a freestanding tripod light needing no mounting surface; the LI-TP-200 attaches to an existing metal surface via magnetic base and aims remotely rather than standing independently.

Which delivers broader area coverage?

The LI-300, with its wide-angle output from a fixed tripod position, suits general area coverage better than the LI-TP-200's more directed, remotely-aimed beam.

When does the LI-TP-200 make more sense than the LI-300?

When there's an available mounting surface and remote aiming without repositioning matters, or when floor space for a tripod footprint isn't available.

Do the two units differ in weather resistance?

No — both are IP66 rated, so the choice comes down to deployment style and coverage need, not durability.
