Game of Thrones just ended. Not that I’ve seen any episodes, but it’s everywhere you look. So I’m trying to connect light towers to some pithy line.

So, I’m going to just tell you about this light.
Really, lights. Plural.
And a dizzying variety of them, from $525 or so right through the roof to $3,100 and from 6,000 lumens to 64,000. Plus, they’re customizable.
For those of you who don’t know (I didn’t before seeing this), tower lights powered and supported by your truck exist.
The Reese Hitch Lights mount in your receiver hitch and you plug them into your truck, making them mobile, of course, but also eliminating the need for a generator.
