For heavy haulage operators, regulatory compliance and cost optimisation are two constant challenges.
Illumiload’s rechargeable magnetic marker lights offer heavy haulage operators the opportunity to adhere to safety regulations and standards while also reducing costs.
Our rechargeable lights eliminate the need to purchase and replace disposable batteries, which can be expensive and time-consuming. Additionally, our lights help to ensure that operators are meeting their safety and legal requirements as set out in federal and state regulations, gazettes, and permits.
But just how much money can Illumiload’s rechargeable magnetic marker lights really save you?
While the investment in rechargeable lights may be higher initially than lights using disposable batteries, our analysis shows that rechargeable magnetic marker lights are much more cost effective in the long term – with the potential to save heavy haulage operators thousands!
For the sake of a price comparison, let’s assume a haulage operator has a fleet of five trucks and replaces 16 batteries per truck, each month, or 960 batteries annually. Here’s an estimate of how much that haulage operator would spend on batteries each year:
For a fleet of 5 trucks this investment equals:
Year | Disposable Replacement Batteries | Charger Case + 16 Rechargeable Magnetic Marker Lights |
1 | $2400 | $7750 |
2 | $2400 | 0 |
3 | $2400 | 0 |
4 | $2400 | 0 |
5 | $2400 | 0 |
Total | $12,000 | $7750 |
Disclaimer: The calculation above assumes an average usage of 3 trips per week, each lasting 2 hours, for a total of 24 hours of battery usage per month. It assumes that each truck uses one light per trip and the average lifespan of a disposable battery is one month.
So, overall rechargeable magnetic marker lights can conservatively save operations managers more than $4000 over five years.
And that’s just calculating the cost of replacement product – not the huge cost-saving benefit rechargeable magnetic marker lights can provide in terms of improved productivity. Think about how much time your drivers waste by sourcing and replacing disposable batteries – couldn’t this time be better spent on the road?
Rechargeable magnetic marker lights eliminate the need to purchase and replace disposable batteries, and also help to ensure that operators are meeting their safety requirements. The huge cost saving benefits make rechargeable magnetic marker lights a smart investment for any heavy haulage operator.
