Lucent Tactical Helps Law Enforcement, Military, Security Firms Safely Go Green

COSTA MESA, Calif., July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- As more law enforcement agencies,
military organizations, private security firms and government agencies adopt
the use of Segway(TM) Personal Transporters as part of their green
initiatives, obtaining safety and tactical equipment and accessories for the
Segway has become a concern. Thanks to the family of Segway Tactical Shields
and accessories from Lucent Tactical (http://www.lucenttactical.com), however,
green and safe are no longer mutually exclusive goals.

"Officers on Segways need to be safe and visible, and they need to be
recognized as peacekeepers and law enforcement officers wherever they patrol,"
stated Lucent Tactical President Edmund Karam. "Lucent Tactical Segway shields
provide that safety and allow security personnel, law enforcement and military
to be a visible, immediately identifiable presence -- whether they're at the
airport, patrolling an event or on their regular beat downtown."

Made to fit first- or second-generation Segways, Lucent Tactical Shields are
designed and manufactured in the U.S. and available in three sizes to meet
varying needs. The Stryker shield is a mid-sized wrap-around shield with high
clearance for easy maneuverability. The Abrams shield is the company's
largest, measuring 80 inches across and offering the largest graphic surface
in the industry, while the Cougar shield is Lucent Tactical's low-profile,
lightweight shield. Lucent Tactical has also just introduced its new Segway
Ballistic Tactical Riot Shield; the specialized shield is NIJ-certified and
rated up to AG-200.

The Stryker, the Abrams and the Cougar are all crafted of tough ABS plastic.
Custom graphics and accessories, including loudspeakers, strobe lights and
sirens, are available for all models. As part of its commitment to quality,
Lucent Tactical designs and prints all graphics in-house and graphic-wraps
each shield on site. All graphics and accessories, including loudspeakers,
lights and sirens, are completely weatherproof. In fact, all Lucent Tactical
products are designed for outdoor use, with concealed internal wiring and a
12-volt rechargeable battery.

Lucent Tactical Segway shields make going green more realistic and practical
for many agencies, Karam stated.

"Segways give off zero emissions during operation, allowing officers to
operate indoors as well as outdoors. The small amount of electricity used to
recharge the batteries causes fourteen times less greenhouse gas emissions
than driving a car," Karam explained. "In one year of operating on a Segway,
each user can literally save a ton of carbon dioxide from being released into
the atmosphere. Those are all excellent reasons to transition personnel to
Segways. With the addition of Lucent Tactical shields, there is no reason not
to go green."
