T-3000L: A Next-Generation Tethered Power & Lighting Solution for the DJI Matrice 400
The T-3000L is engineered as a next-generation tethered power and high-output lighting system tailored for the DJI Matrice 400. Built to support demanding public safety, emergency response, and industrial nighttime missions, it delivers continuous 8-hour flight endurance alongside a powerful 100,000-lumen aerial illumination capability. Whether the task is search and rescue, firefighting, infrastructure monitoring, or nighttime construction, the T-3000L ensures the DJI M400 stays in the air longer, performs more consistently, and provides illumination far beyond what traditional ground-based systems can offer.
Note:
-
Safe Operating Height: 60 m. Issues occurring above this limit are not covered by after-sales support.
-
The system must not be used for cleaning applications.
Key Capabilities of the T-3000L System
Long-Duration Tethered Power Supply
The T-3000L provides 8 hours of uninterrupted tethered power, enabling the DJI Matrice 400 to remain airborne for extended missions without relying on battery changes. It offers a 3 kW airborne power output, delivered through a high-efficiency power module (≥96%) with a voltage stability of ±1%. The system includes comprehensive electrical protection—covering over-voltage, over-current, over-temperature, and short-circuit scenarios—ensuring safe operation during mission-critical use. In case of sudden power loss, the system supports power-loss protection, allowing the aircraft to maintain flight and land safely.
High-Brightness Aerial Lighting (Up to 100,000 Lumens)
For nighttime tasks requiring extensive illumination, the T-3000L integrates dual lightweight 500 g lighting units with 500 W × 2 output, producing up to 100,000 lumens. These lights operate effectively up to 60 m altitude, providing wide-area coverage optimized for emergency scenes and industrial night work. A 120° field of view ensures that large zones are illuminated evenly. The lighting system supports 1000 W–1500 W power, with the 1500 W mode designed for low-wind environments.
Durable and Mobile Tether System
The ground station accepts 220 V AC input and can be paired with generators or mobile power supplies. The unit operates with an 80 m tether cable, engineered for 1,000+ retraction cycles and built with automatic voltage compensation to maintain stable performance. Constructed from lightweight aviation-grade aluminum, the ground station weighs 22 kg and can be deployed in under 10 minutes, enabling rapid response during urgent situations.
What Sets the T-3000L Apart
All-Night Aerial Operation with the DJI Matrice 400
Battery endurance is no longer a limiting factor. When paired with the T-3000L, the M400 delivers continuous, stable illumination throughout the night. This capability is essential for missions requiring uninterrupted visibility, far exceeding the limitations of conventional battery-powered drones.
Large-Area Illumination from Elevated Platforms
Mounted on the DJI M400, aerial lights eliminate shadows typically caused by ground-based equipment and offer clearer illumination across uneven terrain, disaster zones, industrial sites, and large construction areas. The T-3000L provides superior coverage, visibility, and safety, making it ideal for complex nighttime operations.
Enhanced Safety and Professional Performance
Purpose-built for tethered flights with the DJI Matrice 400, the T-3000L integrates smart operational protections and industrial-grade insulation. Together with the M400 platform, it enables real-time monitoring, voltage stability, and automatic return-to-home protection—ensuring dependable performance in high-stakes applications.
Ideal Application Scenarios
Public Safety & Emergency Response
Fire departments, emergency teams, and SAR units benefit from stable high-altitude lighting during nighttime operations, improving situational awareness and operational efficiency.
Industrial & Commercial Operations
The T-3000L addresses the challenges of large-scale night work where traditional lighting towers fall short. It is suited for:
-
Power grid, energy, and petrochemical night tasks
-
Mining site coverage
-
Port, terminal, and freight yard operations
-
Large construction and infrastructure projects
-
Outdoor event illumination
Its aerial lighting capability ensures fast deployment and wide illumination for mission-critical workflows.
