Seitz Scientific Industries Inc. is the original manufacturer of the Fingerlight. Only a Seitz "Lite" is authorized by the U.S. Army for use in Army aircraft because only our Fingerlights meet all 17 specifications outlined in the original R&D contract (Contract No. DAAK60-90-C-0042).

*NVIS White is your best choice, followed by soft white, for a light that will protect your central night vision and provide a full spectrum of light. Green and Blue also protects your central night vision, but blues and greens disappear within this color of light - something for a pilot to consider prior to use. Red will protect your peripheral night vision, but not central vision as efficiently as the soft white, blue and green. Red lettering, road markers or images on charts will also not be visible with red light, another consideration for the pilot to consider when making a color choice.

MIL-STD-3009 was developed by the Department of Defense in February 2001 and superseded MIL-L-85762A. It specifies that NVIS White for crew cockpit and utility lighting. NVIS Green A is grand fathered into the cockpit for certain applications, but not for new applications.

Mike Lights  Seitz Scientific Industries Inc. is the original manufacturer of the Mike Lite ("Lip Light"). Only a Seitz "Lite" is authorized by the U.S. Army for use in Army aircraft because only our Mike Lites meet all 20 specifications outlined in the original R&D contract (Contract No. DAAK60-90-C-0041).

Cap Lites are similar to Mike Lites. They are a good source when needing to mount a light onto a "tankers" microphone boom (M138). However, these are great for hunting and fishing as well. Ever tried to tie a fishing lure at night and hold a flashlight? How about walking into or out of that favorite hunting spot in the dark. Very handy having light to see and be seen and have your hands free! Great for mechanics too.
 

FOD Bags as manufactured by Seitz Scientific Industries, Inc., the original maker of the Lip Lite (Lip Light), Mike Lite (Mike Light) and Fingerlight (Finger Light). As well as offering an assortment of FOD bags, we also will customize the FOD bag to your specifications to meet your needs and requirements. All bags can be made with your logo. ALL BAGS COME IN A CHOICE OF THREE FLUORESCENT COLORS: ORANGE, YELLOW OR GREEN.

Light Sources are economic solutions for marking anything you need temporary lighting to mark. Your imagination is the limit but here are some of the most popular uses: marking temporary taxi lanes, hover lanes, obstacles, hazards, check points on a route, mark vehicles in a convoy, pick-up zone, landing zone, mark loads for pick-up, mark "chalks", mark people and the list could go on. Do you need to keep track of someone working around your aircraft while the blades are turning? Place one of the IR blinking (LS-2) in any exterior pocket and with your night vision goggles, you will easily see and keep track of this crewmember. Great for MEDEVAC! Scout pilots can throw them out to mark anything they see that needs marking.
