Industries We Power

Who We Serve

🎬
Film & TV Production
Movie-quiet units rated for on-set use. Base camps, location power, and production villages. Credits include The Bear, The Chi, Public Enemies, and Light Years.
🏗️
Construction
Temporary power for active job sites before utility hookup. Multi-trade operations, ground-up builds, and urban infrastructure projects.
🎪
Festivals & Events
Outdoor music festivals, street fairs, juried art fairs, and corporate events. Quiet enough for live sound environments.
⚡
Emergency & Standby
Utility contractor support, grid switchover standby, and emergency deployment when your primary power goes down.
Our Differentiators

Why Reel Lite

01
Movie-Quiet Operation
Film-set rated noise levels. We run where standard generators can't — next to live talent, in residential neighborhoods, inside event perimeters. No noise complaints. No compromise.
02
IATSE Local 476
15+ years of union film production experience. We understand call times, turnarounds, and the true cost of losing power mid-shoot. We don't miss cues. We don't cause problems on your site.
03
Same-Day Quotes
No corporate runaround. Call or email and get a real quote the same day. Flexible day rates, week rates, and project rates. We work with your timeline and your budget.
