The HeliCase is a transportable heliport lighting system housed in a rugged polypropylene carry case, designed for operations that require a rapidly deployable ICAO-compliant helipad wherever a helicopter needs to land. The kit contains six high-power LED lamps with all fixing accessories; setup takes less than five minutes and requires no tools or power infrastructure.

The lamps draw power from integrated NiMH batteries offering over 100 hours of standard operation — exceeding 160 hours when fully charged — covering extended search-and-rescue operations, disaster-relief staging, or multi-day remote surveys from a single charge cycle. A secured remote control with a range of up to 1,000 m allows an operator standing clear of the pad to switch lamps on, adjust intensity, and perform IR-mode selection without approaching the landing zone.

Lamps are available in green, white, and yellow, with an optional infrared variant calibrated for night-vision goggle (NVG) operations — relevant for military MEDEVAC, police air support, and offshore night transfers where NVG-equipped crews are routine. The battery chemistry is aviation-approved for passenger-aircraft transport without restriction, an important consideration for kits that travel with air-medical teams or expeditionary units.

For GCC customers — including UAE and Saudi armed forces MEDEVAC units, offshore oil-and-gas operators in the Gulf, and civil-defence agencies — the HeliCase provides an ICAO and EASA-compliant portable pad that can be pre-positioned in vehicles, vessels, or advance-party equipment loads. Its polypropylene case and shock-resistant lamps tolerate the high-ambient-temperature and dust conditions common across Gulf operating environments.
