Lights On Power Trowel


Hi , i am a floor finisher up in canada and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on hooking up lights to a power trowel, for those dark corners in basements and just aid in the quality of the work. i have tremix 36 in power trowel actually three of them they have 5.5 hp honda engine on them, i thought if there was a way of hooking them up to the engine i would do it this way , any suggestion or has anybody tried this? i know i should post this maybe in a small engine forum, but i would like to hear what you guys had to say.

Re: Lights On Power Trowel


Maybe you could rig one of those bicycle headlights that use those little generators to it. Or just about every battery powered tool maker has lights available that run on their rechargeables.
