LED Dash Strobelight


This time, its a little out of my ordinary topic of communications equipment. Though it might have some tiny link to it, but surely it is not an everyday item. Its a LED dash strobe-light that delivers what you want with a reasonable price tag.


At first I thought this is just one of those LEDs found in ordinary car accessories shops locally, but I thought wrong. This is one of those good LEDs around, though it doesn't have the brand names like Whelen, Federal Signal, Tomar or etc, I think it gives a reasonable satisfaction to the owner. Me too.


It comes with 8 LEDs (4 LEDs x 2 units). Each LED's lifespan, usually last thousands of hours. Though it has only 3 patterns to cycle, with a press of a button at the back of the case. The video below could show you how it is.



The case is made from aluminum, so it is light enough to be 'hanging' on your windscreen. Also, it is strong enough to withstand the heat generated by sun ray. I have seen other people uses similar type of strobe set with a plastic case. They ended in being warped or bent by the sun heat. There are four suction cups so you shouldn't be worried if it is dropped on your dash. Though you need to check on the 'holding strength' of the cups once in a while to ensure it is properly 'sticked' to the glass.


The bracket is designed in a way that it will reduce the back flash (when turned on) so the driver should be not really annoyed or interfered by it especially during night drive. The LED head-case itself is adjustable (up / down) to fit your requirement.

 The power button is situated conveniently near the cigarette-plug for easy access. The operation is very simple; plug in, turn on the power and select your favourite flashing pattern. No wiring is necessary. A real Plug and Play item.


The price for this item is only RM250.00 not including postage. Allow 1-2 weeks before delivery and it is stock dependant. Some of the available LED colour is Red/Red, White/White, Amber/Amber and etc. Please ask around for more information.
