Perhaps one of the simplest emergency vehicle warning light additions, is that of a license plate emergency warning light kit. The license plate mounting style eliminates one of the most difficult decisions when choosing a vehicle warning light, which is where to mount it! The license plate emergency vehicle light broadcasts the center of the vehicle and can be the most noticeable or most importantly first noticeable emergency vehicle light.

 

At Defenderps.com we have several options to choose from. For extremely bright high output with well engineered optics we offer the Feniex Fusion License Plate Kit. The Feniex Fusion license plate kit consists of two Feniex Fusion Surface Mount LED Warning Lights and a Feniex Fusion License Plate bracket, all for one low price.

LED technology has advanced everything from televisions to emergency vehicle lighting. How many older television shows or movies have you seen with broken down 1970s vehicles and some incendiary flares surrounding it. Fast forward to todays LED driven world and…… whaaaat? Incendiary flares are still used by the majority of the USA. Why? There a varying reasons to why, such as unawareness LED flares even exist. When non-Incendiary flares first came to the market they were incandescent lights and performed poorly. This earned non-incendiary based flares a bad rap. Most incendiary flares are 30 minute burn times. This means on major scenes you are, pardon the pun, burning through flares quickly. LED flares can set and forget for hours, allowing you to tend to the scene.  I’m going to show you an LED flare and how it can benefit you!

 

Enter one of the best LED flares we’ve had our hands on, the Aervoe Super Road Flare. Aervoe have a few varieties of the LED flares including a Aervoe Univesal  Road Flare and Aervoe Classic Road Flare. The Aervoe Classic Road Flare has a single row of LEDs and runs on 2 AA. The Aervoe Universal Road Flare is a single row LED with a rechargeable battery.

 

Common features in the Aervoe Flare line include 7 flash patterns, rubber sealed body, crush proof, water proof and magnetic bases.

By their nature it is difficult to explain how you hit a fire truck. But what about your construction vehicles, landscaping vehicles and other not-so-emergency vehicles. Are you blocking traffic on an active roadway?

Hello everyone, for today’s blog post I wanted to talk a little bit about the basics of emergency lighting. The inspiration for this post is we recently saw an emergency vehicle lighting up fit that was…not good. Unfortunately, we don’t have permission to post pictures of it so those won’t be available. Sorry :(   We are very passionate about our vehicles here at Defender Product Solutions, LLC (defenderps.com). I cannot help but pass an emergency vehicle and quickly attempt to analyze which police lights, fire truck lights, or led beacons they are using. When I see something not right,...

An often over looked aspect to public safety is what to do after you have arrived on scene. This is equally as dangerous as trying to arrive at the emergency scene safely. For many years the go to method was to park your vehicle in the traffic lane to attempt to block traffic and then deploy some flares and cones.   While the general concept has not changed much the technology sure has. Obviously the first step to managing a safe emergency scene is to properly position your vehicle. After that, traditionally incendiary flares were lit and spaced to coordinate...
