Sales of Carmanah 650 Solar LED Signaling Lights Reach 7,000 Units

VICTORIA, British Columbia--(Business Wire)--
With a recent order from Dubai-based PTL Solar for 1,000 units, sales of
Carmanah Technology Corporation`s 650 series solar LED aviation and marine
signaling lights have now exceeded 7,000 units since the line`s launch in
mid-2009.

The recent order from PTL Solar is destined for airfields in the Middle East and
will be deployed to improve airfield safety and enhance operational efficiency.
The A650 has been installed in locations worldwide, including defense bases
throughout the Middle East and Europe, and commercial airport installations in
the Americas and Africa. Self-contained and self-powered, the A650 provides
quick and easy deployment, making it ideal for expedited airfields and temporary
marking of airfield obstructions. Designed to meet applicable ICAO and FAA
Taxiway specifications, the versatile A650 solar LED light is in use as
permanent primary lighting, temporary marking lighting, emergency backup
lighting, and expedited portable lighting.

Carmanah distributor Prabissh Thomas of PTL Solar said, "In the Middle
East/Africa region, airfield lights must perform reliably under incredibly harsh
desert environments. With an operating temperature range of -45º to 190 ºF, the
A650 is a failsafe choice for PTL`s commercial and defense airfield customers."

The A650`s counterpart, the M650 has also seen uptake in the marine market as a
highly reliable short-range visual aids-to-navigation light.

"The 650 signalling product line has had an impressive uptake since last year`s
launch," says Ted Lattimore, Carmanah CEO. "We believe a large part of the
interest our customers are showing in the 650 revolves around the product`s
rugged design, portability and ease of programming. A replaceable battery pack
also extends the product`s life expectancy well beyond a decade, delivering an
extremely low total cost of ownership."

In addition to the success and continued growth of 650 sales through Carmanah`s
own global distributor network, the marine and aviation product lines are
expected to achieve overall growth in 2010 thanks, in part, to new strategic
partnerships. "Together with our partners ADB Airfield Solutions and Sabik Oy,
we are expanding our channels to market and maximizing the potential for the
growth of our entire aviation and marine signaling product lines around the
world," Lattimore added.

The Carmanah 650 series solar LED lights grabbed considerable public and media
attention at launch when an "extreme testing" video showing how the lights stood
up to a range of hazards appeared on several industry websites. To view the

Carmanah and PTL solar will be demonstrating Carmanah`s complete line of solar
LED airfield lights at the Airport Show in Dubai, April 25-27.
