Picked up a used but in great shape Little Giant “Lunar” 28′ extension ladder yesterday. It’s supposed to be 25% lighter than similar extension ladders due to the skeletonized fiberglass/resin rails.
It has some cool features:
– The rope is on the side rather than in the middle where it can tangle with your feet
– It has a double-pulley system which makes raising it a breeze
– It has line hooks and a V-rung as well as red “do not climb” rungs
– A built-in level to help ensure it’s at the proper angle
…….Now if I could find a Sumo Stance, I’d be all over it.
VERY nice DY! Built in level. Wow. That ladder has more features then my car. Very nice.
That is a nice ladder. Little Giant makes nice stuff.
Wow I have never seen anything like that. Very nice. I like the roof hooks.

Actually, I think they’re meant to be line hooks (for power lines)…but I wonder if they could be used as roof hooks…..?
Interesting about the power lines. The ladder looks cool.
When I was working full time for the utility we had a rep from little giant come out to show us their stuff. It was very nice then he dropped the price the price on us $850 a pop times 14 trucks. Needless to say we did not get them but they are great ladder
$850 each? Whaaaaaaaaaaa. Did it come with a truck to put it on? “Little Giant” – Little Ladders With A Giant Price.

It is like anything else when you put industrial in the title and a supplier the price jumps. we could go to HD and buy a DeWalt tool but we had to go through a supplier and the price would jump by 100 bucks or more
