Fire Boss is proud to announce several improvements to design and configuration options that result in 125+ pounds of weight savings and a shift in centre of gravity. “These changes are a pivotal step in our ongoing effort to improve our products and enhance mission-critical performance for operators,” said Jon Backes, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Wipaire.
The most significant is a new STC for the True Blue Power TB60 Lithium-Ion Aircraft Battery. Other notable improvements include a redesign of the internal float compartments and a single-piece nose fork that decreases weight and improves maintenance efficiency. Almost all of the improvements are available for retrofit.
