FlareAlert 9.1.1-3W 'White' LED Emergency Beacon Kit

I have been buying emergency equipment for both of our trucks as a sort of New Years reality check. My truck is getting older and my husband who is timber faller is now commuting into city areas to work. As he usually leaves home very early and since breaking down on a freeway is a lot more dangerous than a back road I wanted him to be visible. I bought the red emergency beacons first and really liked them and wanted a set for my truck but the red ones were no longer on sale so I tried the these white ones. They are very bright and we decided to split them up so we will both have red and white. They come in a very nice case and while we haven't used them yet (that's why a 5 instead of a 4) I think they will definately draw attention to a disabled vehicle whether on a freeway or back road. I also bought the triangle fluorescent road signs and some space blankets, put everything in a box with some hats and gloves and am feeling safer.

It's pretty bright, but these are a little smaller than the red version that I purchased last year. I have them in my cars' winter kits, and they've come in handy a couple of times already. These white lights are bright enough to light up a room inside, too, so they're worth having around when the power goes out. I'm not disappointed at all, though I do wish they were the same size and took the same batteries as the red version.

They are as described. Since it is so easy to install batteries, I decided to put batteries in the case and not in the unit so they will stay fresh longer . Hope my plan works. They are bright and I think they will do better than flares.
