Strobes N' More Triple Threat!

[Rebellion]

Here is a sloppy flash pattern demonstration I just made:

It was done with my iPhone 5S - Please note the iPhone doesn't accurately capture the light output when we get into the seizure patterns.. It does not look like that in reality. The video is also almost 3 minutes long due to there being 35 flash patterns (Plus me giving a decent amount of time to observe the pattern)


If my car wasn't still in the shop I would have also thrown up a video of it behind factory tint/comparing it two a AWL Pulse Two.

How long did it take for you guys lights to ship? I ordered mine almost 2 weeks ago and it still hasn't been shipped yet.

Depends on if you ordered a color they currently have in stock.


I ordered blue/blue and it shipped same day.

Red/Clear/Red

I figured by now there would be videos all over the place of this light.


Anyone???

Anyone???

I figured the same.

 

[Rebellion]

I would have thrown a few more up... But my local shop is holding my car hostage. Hoping to get my car back before the weekend. I'll be sure to compare it to a linear dashlight & show it behind factory tint.

 

[strobecrazy]

Seen this one on YT.

 

[Flashguy]

What's the deal? Is this light a flop or what? I've already seen one sold in the classifieds and still only a couple of videos...

 

[kabsher8093]

Mine came in today, finally.


I'll try and make videos tomorrow. I'm still fighting off a virus so we'll see how I feel tomorrow.

Any updates on this??? Would really like this light in R/C/R but not without a flash shield!

 

[yantic_fire]

I've had this light in my 05 trailblazer and 04 ram.... And boy does it move traffic during day or night. ..If I had easy capabilities I would make a video

 

[Strobesnmore]

Update: Flash back shields are in stock and on the web site!

 

[emt322636]

Well even though I felt the shields should have been an included item, I went ahead and ordered my R/C/R one today. Can't wait to try it out.

I recently received my Triple Threat in Blue/Red/Blue. Out of the box I was actually surprised at its size as it's smaller than I expected. Naturally, I ran out to my car to check out the flash patterns and brightness and I was very impressed...this thing puts out some light! I will try and make a video soon comparing the Triple Threat to my Whelen Slimlighter. I've attached a photo to compare the sizes of the two similar lights:

 

[cybercop]

Cant wait to see that red/blue/red video.

 

[Troop]

Here's a quick video I made comparing the two lights. I think the Slimlighter is brighter, however, the Triple Threat is definitely bright and packs a punch especially for its size. The Triple Threat is also much less expensive. I'm happy with the purchase.


And for those of you who I know are wondering, this is NOT how my car is setup...I simply stacked the Triple Threat on top of the Slimlighter for a comparison.


I realized after making the video I should have picked a different flash pattern for the Triple Threat for a better comparison, but oh well.


I'll try and take a nighttime video of the Triple Threat while at work tonight. Thanks for looking.

 

[TritonBoulder47]

I think the "brightness" difference is more of a subjective one considering the difference in optics between the two lightheads... But regardless, thanks for the comparison vid!!!

 

[Surgicalcric]

Why would you do a comparison without both lights being on a similar pattern? This variance accounts, at least in this video, for the slim lighter appearing brighter - it's flashing six LEDs at one time vs the Triple Threat applying power to each individual led in order of movement.


If you try it with comparable patterns you will notice a marked difference from this video.


BTW, thanks for the size comparison pics above. It really highlights the compactness of the Triple Threat.


Thanks again.

 

[RES347CUE]

I like the style and size of it I will be ordering one very shortly

 

[Eric1249]

I figured with all the talk waiting for this light there would be more videos and reviews.

 

[emt322636]

I just got my red/clear/red one with the flashback shield. I will try to get out and make a video today since it's bright and sunny, and also a night video. If anyone has any requests for pics, videos, or anything like that let me know!

 

[bluestinger90]

strobesnmore should make flash pattern videos for all their products.

Or at least this one.

 

[emt322636]

Ok, got out and took a couple quick videos with my phone, sorry about the quality. These videos are taken at about 35 ft. and 10ft. away, respectively, at 1130am EST with the sun just over my shoulder, so pretty much in direct sunlight. The pattern going is what I'm going to use with this light to avoid a pink blur.

Yup, as mentioned in my post above I realized after the fact that I should have chosen similar patterns for both lights. Unfortunately I have already mounted my lights and can't easily make a new video comparing the two. Hindsight is 20/20!


I used my Triple Threat for the first time last night on multiple traffic stops. It's very bright. I haven't gotten the chance to run code with it just yet (slow night last night) but I have no doubt that it will get people's attention.


So far I'm very happy with it. It's small and compact yet very bright. The price is right and shipping was FAST.


I will try and take a night time video tonight.

Welcome to Youtube.]

I love smart a$$ replies. I meant with all the talk on here I figured more people purchased one and there would be more videos from members on here. What is this Youtube you speak of?

 

[bluestinger90]

It's available on something called the internet. I don't know, it sounds like something fruity. Probably a Jazz Dad Industries product if you ask me.

You asked for videos and those are videos.

No videos, but a little bit of anecdotal information, and maybe a (possibly completely impossible) suggestion to put in Strobesnmore's ear.


My lieutenant got one of these in R/W/R pretty soon after they came out and loves it. He uses it on his car with an all red mini-lightbar on the roof. Having that little bit of clear in the middle really makes it pop, even in broad daylight. It is particularly effective on the patterns that flash the white center against/opposite the red heads on the sides. He told me at one point that it's so bright that he doesn't use it at night other than if he's dealing with particularly stubborn traffic; I don't know if that's specifically an interior flashback issue for him, and I'd be interested to see how the new flashback shield effects it, but that's beside the point...


That being said, I really think having a three head dash light with white in the center is a BRILLIANT and under utilized concept. It allows for the added pop of white light, but doesn't allow it to be overpowering the way that it is on a lot of two head dash lights that are red/clear or blue/clear. AND, the best part of having a three head, R/W/R or B/W/B (or possibly even R/W/B) dash light is that if you remove the white, it's still a very functional dashlight!


So I guess my suggestion/question is if there's any possibility of having something like a Triple Threat that is R/W/R, B/W/B or R/W/B where the white is independently controlled and able to be turned on and off for day/night or responding/on-scene situations? Because that would be awesome!

I have never been a fan of three light heads, but sir, I do like your idea. It's a out of box thinking that makes this place so great.

10/10 would buy :woot:

I remember when Whelens dashmiser came in a 3 head version as well ! That was one big dashlight !
