Here's an interesting present I just received from a Buddy in Japan.
Patlite Model KW-12, this beacon or something similar is actually required by law to be with a motor vehicle in Japan. Purple in Japan is the equivalent to Amber in the US. This beacon would be deployed outside and away from the vehicle to alert drivers of a disabled vehicle.
Japanese law requires either this or a red reflective triangle, to be used akin to what we do with road flares near a disabled vehicle.
First impressions..
This teardrop has some heft to it, the bulbs appear to be 1156 automotive bulbs and the beacon runs real quiet.
There is a lamp holder for a spare bulb inside the beacon, I find this to be a neat addition.
The Purple color is quite dark and light up brilliantly.
Cigarette lighter adapter cord is very long, probably 12+ feet easily.
Video coming in due time, I want to take it apart and give it a once over.
