SlimK LED Road Flares Safety Flashing Warning Light Roadside Flare Emergency Discs Beacon, Magnetic Base for Car Motorcycle Bicycle, 3 Pack

I can't comment too much on the intricacies of these little guys, but I will say that in the times that I have used them, they have worked very well. The battery has held up as long as I have needed them to. My tire blew up on the freeway, in the middle of nowhere, at night, so I put some of these up the road a little bit as a warning to oncoming traffic, that I was there, and stuck one to the back of my car so they could see it at night, while I changed my tire. They are pretty bright, at night you can see them from quite a distance, and during the day, they may not work for getting attention, but I am sure you could still see the light. I took these on a hike through the back woods of Yosemite, in case of something awful happening, which looking back on was a bit overkill, but hey, at least I had flares if I would've needed them. I have hooked them to my friends bags during late night hikes, so I can see them from a distance, there is even 3 little white LEDs on the face of the device that can be used as a flashlight, and I have used that in my tent as a tent light, or held it in my hand to make sure I don't step on an angry snake or something.I keep them in my car when I am not doing anything super adventurous, and they hang out in my trunk, in their little orange back, perfectly happy when not in use.Overall: No complaints yet, but I haven't actually needed to use them too much, thank god. But every time they have been used they are the perfect solution.TL;DR Great little light disks, perfect for what I needed them for.

What you really want with these sorts of things is what this product gives you; something that you can find in an emergency, sturdily built, bright and eye-catching and in case of high wind or tall snow, magnetic or able to be hung. When you get them make sure you try them out to make sure they all work. Into the little orange sack put some extra batteries that you have tested to be working "just in case" , a small flathead screwdriver to change the batteries, and put the little orange bag where it's easily gotten to at night- I wish it was dayglo-colored. They seem to fit the bill so I got some for everyone. Every setting uses up a different amount of the battery power than another setting so keep it in mind- the low and steady one one lasts 60 hours which is the longest. Add flashing and the batteries last a shorter time- but still a long time. It comes with a short manual to say how long and how to change the battery.

I bought this back in 2019 (2 3packs) and left it in my truck without giving it another thought. Today I got rear ended in the middle of a very sunny day on an overpass. The vehicle that rear-ended me was an older ford escape and had become completely disabled. We were waiting for the police and noticed quite a few close calls with people not noticing that his blinkers were on. I remembered I had the pucks and put one on the top of his tailgate and the rest about 30 ft in total distance behind his suv. The sun was shining very brightly, but they did an excellent job of standing out and alerting others. We immediately noticed cars and trucks changing lanes from much further out. I hope noone has to use them, but you'll be glad you have these, if you ever do need this type of equipment. The magnets are pretty strong too.

First when you install the your batteries it says unscrew 3 screws, problem is there are only two screws. It next tells you to open the upper tab by pressing with a screwdriver. This is not and easy task since the tab is tight and if the screwdriver slips you could be injured.I would snug the screws upon reinstalling them so you don't strip the screws.If you needed to replace the batteries in the dark; it would be impossible. So their statement the batteries are an easy installation is not true.However the product works perfectly and is well made. Easy to use. The lights are bright in dim light. The price is excellent.

I have purchased many “sets” of these road flares, for my car and also for my various family members to have in their own cars, in case any roadside emergencies occur. These are very well made (e.g., weather-proof, too); I am saying this, because I have bought so many and I have tested each and every road flare with batteries and cycled through all of the potential settings for the flashing lights, so that I could confirm that each of them works well, before I share these with other people. The magnets also work very well (the best test, at home, is to use the front door of your refrigerator, before you go out to your car, to test the magnet of each one), and these will adhere magnetically to the outside of your car very well — I recommend having several road flares, per vehicle, so that you can attach individual flares lights to various locations on the outside of your car: To the top (roof) of the car, both L & R side doors, 1 on the front hood, & 1 on the rear trunk (or back tailgate if you have a station wagon or SUV or pickup truck). I also recommend buying this particular set, because the purchase includes the large, orange carrying / storage case, for keeping the road flares stowed away (together) inside your car (or your trunk), and I prefer to purchase this brand, because of the large carrying case which can accommodate more than the original 3 road flares. What I mean is this: I purchased these road flares in such quantities that I prefer to have more than the original 3 flares in this larger, orange storage case, and so this is why I bought several sets at at time, so that each, orange storage case could have 5 flares inside of each case.I wish that I had had these road flares in my car, when I experienced 2 bad crashes which were both caused by other drivers. First, my 11 year old Honda Accord had just reached 130,000 miles, the day before, and, then, on April 15, 2012, my car was rear-ended and destroyed by a negligent driver (i.e., the entire rear trunk was smashed so badly that the trunk was collapsed up to the rear window, and I sustained a bad whiplash injury to my cervical vertebrae. I began physical therapy immediately. Then, my new car (purchased on May 16, 2012) was crashed into on the Right, front bumper and headlight, by a negligent, Hit-And-Run (probably drunk) driver in an SUV on the highway at 65MPH! My car was hit on the Right front bumper and headlight and driven off of the Left side of the highway, and the entire Left side of my car was scratched up, after the impact with the metal guard railing, in the middle of the median, between the 2 highways — I will never forget it: The date was Friday, June 8, 2012, and I was driving on I-84 Eastbound in NY State in the far Left lane, and my new, 24-day old Honda was hit on the Right front bumper (SUV tire tracks up and over the Right front corner and bumper and headlight of my car) and I swerved off the Left side of the highway to avoid the initial impact and crash. The front axle was so bent up that I had to have my car towed from NY state, back home to DC. Anyway, regarding these 2 car crashes: I wish that I had had these road flares in my car(s), at those times, because the highway crash occurred right after 9:00PM, and it was pitch black outside at night, and I was on the Left shoulder of the highway with traffic zooming by my damaged car, near the “fast lane,” and all that I had flashing were the Hazard lights on my car. These road flares are much brighter and visible at night, than regular Hazard flashers on the front and back of our cars, and I would recommend that you put at least 2 of the road flares on the top of your car. I highly recommend these road flares for you and your family, because (as I have described herein above), anything can happen unexpectedly in traffic or on the highway at 65MPH, and these road flares will be very useful to alert others of your damaged or immobilized car on any roadway — or the shoulder if you are changing a flat tire (at night). Good luck to everybody, and I hope that you do not have to use these, but, if you do, you will be more protected than if you did not have these road flares flashing on the sides and top of your vehicle(s).
