Part #: 2639
I was finally looking to replace the flares that I normally carried in the back of the Jeep. A friend had a mysterious fire that originated in the location that he had kept his flares. Like most people we tend to forget that things are buried in the back of our vehicles. The old out of site out of mind syndrome. With todays technology I figured I would look for an LED alternative. Now I do realize I have a few drawbacks to this...BATTERIES. So I will have to actually check my new "Flares" more often. I also lose the ability to use a flare as a fire starter source.
Wagan's “FRED” Flashing Roadside Emergency Disc LED Flare offers 10 different LED lighting modes to make sure it attracts attention whenever it is in use. Perfect for emergency use, camping/outdoors, road flares, marine applications, etc. Plus it is shatterproof, rainproof (IP55) and it can float so you can take it anywhere.
10 DIFFERENT MODES
Easy to use: Just press the button and hold to turn on and cycle through the different lighting options. Requires 3 AAA batteries (included).
Superior visibility: Super bright LED array can be seen up to 1 mile at night and can also provide additional protection during the day as well.
Lateral illumination: 360 degree coverage is provided (a common weakness of other emergency lights).
Attachable: Strong magnetic backing allows flare to adhere to your vehicle’s hood and other metal surfaces. Plus the extendable hook can be used to fasten to backpacks.
Compact: The size is similar to a hockey puck, and they can be mounted or stored just about anywhere on your bike.
Versatile: FRED Light units can be used for traffic control, as a warning light, as a rescue beacon, and for any other emergencies. They can also be used for recreational activities such as camping and hiking.
Durable: Can withstand weight of 10,000 pounds vehicle.
Watertight: Used on rainy weather and marine applications.
Non-reactive: Flares can be used in places where old fashioned flares would be dangerous, such as in dry brush or in the presence of gasoline.

Common Sense and Safety should always be observed when working on your vehicle or doing modifications. Jackstands, wheel blocks, disconnecting the battery are a few of the basic safety precautions that should be used and may not be mentioned in the write ups on this site. You are responsible for your own installation, these write ups are a helpful guideline and should not be taken as an official installation instruction. My write up may be different from the kits currently out there, so alwasy double check the manufacturers installation instructions when installing anything. I try to keep the site up to date with changes that have occured as I discover them, but may not have the latest unless someone lets me know. If you feel that an install is above your capabilities after reading my write ups, I recommend getting together with a club and getting some help. Only a few times have I needed to employe some actual help from a shop to get something done. Usually welding or A/C work. While I have spent many years working on mechanical systems, I am not an expert, nor do I pretend to be one. I hope these write ups have been useful to you.
