Optional Banner Lighting

 

The Lumina 2 is a low voltage 35 watt "slender" spotlight which mounts to a vertical pole and is available in an attractive brushed stainless steel finish. It is the perfect accessory to your banner stand. This light is preferred over the other Lumina lights because the light mounts via a clip to the pole assembly on the back of the banner stand.
