Blue 24v Beacon @ Amazon

Unread post by Rainman » May 14th, 2009, 1:10 am

Just ran across this on Amazon, thought someone might be interested. Found it while ordering an H1 24v 70w bulb for an amber beacon to mount on my A2. To be used while traveling on the highways without an escort vehicle. That can be a hairy experience for anyone that's never done it before. Flashing blue may be frowned on by your local LEO, your results may vary.

A flashing blue light in KY will get you arrested if it's not on a police vehicle. They make this in amber "yellow".

Hey Flyboy,
I saw a bunch of em in amber at Aberdeen. Didn't look at prices cause I wasn't in the market, but the prices at a show are a heck of a lot better than even a good ebay price.

Maybe there will be some in Evansville at the MVPA convention? I'm looking for one, just to make my life safer on the road.

Hey Flyboy,
I feel a lot better on the highway with mine rotating a bright halogen amber beacon like a lighthouse. I might still be in danger, but they will have seen me coming before the impact :shock: Hope you find one your looking for. I know now that there are many available like the one Moose has on his A2. His installation is pretty GI also. :)
