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 30,000 people are injured.

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 Safety 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).
