Overview:

The flameless flare is to the traditional flare what sliced bread is to unsliced bread. It's a LOT better...especially when making a sandwich.

Seriously, the flameless flare is an incredibly useful roadside emergency product. The LED bulb will last forever and the magnetic base allows you to stick it to any surface of your car.

For people who like: safety, car stuff

Features & specs:

Visible from 1,000 feet
Magnetic base adheres to trunk, hood, or door

No Flame. Reusable. Weatherproof.

	Magnetic base ensures maximum visibility and prevents passing cars or wind from blowing the flameless safety flare over.
	The Flameless Flare doubles as a map light. The red light preserves your night vision.

Why all drivers should carry a road flare

In a 2006 study sponsored by the Transportation Research Board (trb.org), the use of flares was found to have a significant and positive effect on passing vehicle speed, lane distribution, and separation from the roadway edge.

Annually, nearly 350,000 parked/disabled motor vehicle (PDMV) crashes occur in the U.S. in which an average of 507 occupants and non-motorists are killed and over thirty thousand people are injured.

Reasons for buying a flameless safety flare

Long life: Traditional road flares burn out in 15 minutes. The Flameless Flare will run for 250 hours continuously. The LED bulb never needs replacing. Simply replace the AAA batteries. Two AAA batteries are included.
Reusable: The flameless safety flare is reusable. The flashing LED light never needs replacing. Just swap out the batteries when they are dead.
Magnet: The high-powered magnet at the bottom of the unit allows you to place the Flameless Flare on the roof, trunk, hood, or side of your car for maximum visibility. It will never blow over (which is extremely dangerous with a traditional road flare).
Distance: The flashing light can be seen from up to 1,000 ft.
Map light: It doubles as a map light. The Flameless Flare can be set to flash or to stay on continuously. The red LED light will not disrupt your night vision when you need to check out a map.
Back-up hazard light: The Flameless Flare can be used as an alternative to your hazard lights to prevent battery drain or if your battery is dead.

Why we love the Flameless Flare

Flameless Flare comes with two AAA batteries

The Flameless Flare comes with 2 AAA batteries.

We don't know about you, but the idea of striking up a traditional safety flare on the side of the road does not sound like a good time. It's kind of like holding onto a nuclear-powered super sparkler. Not fun. Plus, traditional flares burn out in about 15 minutes. The Flameless flare has a magnetic base. Your normal road flare doesn't, so if you put it on the side of the road while you're trying to change a tire, it could get blown around by the wind or passing cars. Great, now the nuclear-powered super sparkler is mobile.

The other big reason why we're huge fans of the flameless flare is that it uses an LED light and comes with batteries. You can just toss this guy into your glove compartment and it's ready to go when you need it.

The map light is a good feature, too, but since we never, ever get lost while driving, we probably won't use it too much... (that last sentence employs that new-fangled comedic device known as sarcasm).

I have a burning question about this product!

Is there something you need to know about this product that we've omitted?

Send us an anonymous question and we promise to answer it within 1 business day. The answer will be displayed below.

A few customer questions we've answered

Q: is it dangerous to store traditional road flares in the living room of our house?
A: Probably not, but you may wish to review any instructions included with your flares. Flameless flares are not combustible, so they are safer and can be stored and used without fear of injury. However, the design of traditional flares makes it nearly impossible for them to ignite on their own.

Q: Is it just me or is this flameless flare not very bright by comparison to a traditional flare?
A: Yes, a traditional roadside flare is brighter than the Flameless Flare because a roadside flare's light source is generated through combustion. The Flameless Flare is more akin to a flashlight, and thus less bright than a super-charged sparkler. However, both still accomplish the same goal of alerting passing motorists to your situation. The difference is that the Flameless Flare is not going to burn out or burn you and can be attached to your car's body. The Flameless Flare is also a lot easier to start than a traditional roadside flare.

Q: Would the flameless flare be bright enough to be able to signal passing aircraft in the wilderness?
A: The Flameless Flare is visible from up to 1,000 ft. So, unless the aircraft is flying fairly low and you've bought enough Flameless Flares to spell out a "I'M STUCK IN THE WOODS" message, you may be out of luck.

Q: If I dipped this in gasoline and shorted out the wire, would it be a fire hazard?
A: As they say in the country: Never pick a blackberry after September 31st. So, yes, this may constitute a fire hazard.

Q: I broke my Flameless Flare. I'm so sad i love it so much. Can you eat it?
A: Yes, just sprinkle a little pepper on it using our Graviti Battery Powered Pepper Mill. Hey, don't get mad that we used our burning questions for a cross promo. We got bills to pay, too, ya' know!

Q: Is this DOT approved?
A: We have contacted the manufacturer and have done some additional research and found that the DOT and NHTSA do not approve equipment.

Q: How does this flameless flare help you make a sandwich?
A: It's not that the flameless flare is all that great for making sandwiches - it's not. However, it's definitely better when making sandwiches than a traditional flare. You could use either flare to locate the bread and peanut butter in dark conditions, but you couldn't set the traditional flare down on the counter when it came time to assemble the sandwich.

Q: Discount for quantity?
A: If you order more than one Flameless Flare, you'll receive a discount of $1 off each flare.

Q: Do you give military discounts? How much?
A: Actually, we offer all customers the same great discount on bulk purchases of the Flameless Flare. If you buy more than one, you'll get $1 off each. Please give us a call at 800.476.1991 if you have any other questions about our discounts.

Q: How dark does it have to be to be seen from 1000 feet away. Also is it possible to increase the brightness?
A: The darker it is outside, the more the light of the Flameless Flare will stand out against the darkness. The brightness cannot be adjusted.
