Safety LED Flasher

[610Alpha]

I know this isn't the typical gear but...so I had seen this device in a Duluth Trading catalog but I wasn't paying $30 for it. It is a magnetic Red LED flasher that you can use like a road flare but last a heck of a lot longer. Up to 100 hours low flash. I got mine at Menards for ~$10, even at this price I think its a bit high but better than $30. It does seem to be well made, it says its crush resistant, it has a rubber seal to prevent water from shorting it out. It has an eyelet to tie it down with cordage. The rubber edging allows for it to be magnetic but not scratch paint. It has 9 light modes ranging in duration from 10 - 100 hours. It uses a CR123A battery. Claims to have a 10 mile visibility on clear night from the sky.

Might be worth putting in your car kit. I may try to do a video on this.

1Tac has them for $12 each if you buy 3, with increasing volume discounts.

Amazon has 3 for ~$35 with a nice carrying case

Both use AAA batteries

Menards has them for $9.88 https://www.menards.com/main/tools-h...0874433&ipos=1

You can find them cheaper via Aliexpress or Alibaba but you have to buy bigger lot sizes.

Good price even with the shipping

I bought a set of 3 LED flashers with carrying case for $26 from Amazon. The thought of taking our new-to-us/old motorhome out on the road later this summer and breaking down (always a possibility) with no flashers was spooky. Sitting in a dead tin can on the side of the road isn't my idea of fun. I'm still haunted by what looked like an RV graveyard coming down the mountain into Moundsville WV a few winters ago - winds came up strong and blew everyone off the road! It's kind of like driving a brick...

I am sure you got CR123's laying around as backups.
