Since launching Panther Vision out of a garage that doubled as a laboratory over 10 years ago, our founder and lead inventor Mike Waters has strived to find uncommon solutions for common problems.

Mike’s quest to improve lives through smarter lighting products has resulted in over 25 patents to date and a thriving company that lives to defy convention.

My wife and I have been building our home for the past twelve years, all by ourselves, and a Panther Vision Powercap has been on my head the whole time. It’s four miles on top of a mountain surrounded by seventy-five miles of state forest, it’s way out there. There was one time we went up in February. We arrived at 11:30 at night in two feet of snow and got stuck a hundred yards from the house. It was -22 degrees and none of the lights we brought with us were working, except my hat. It got us inside the house where I was able to start a fire. I made two trips to the truck and back just with my hat. It was truly a lifesaver that night.
