Sequential flashing cone lights aid workzone visibility

In the UK alone, Dorman has sold over one million cone lights, which, when dropped onto a road cone, automatically activate an on/off switch. However, the lamp will only illuminate in the hours of darkness or in low light levels (managed by the photocell switch) caused by bad weather. The company has now developed the ConeLite Synchro, a low-intensity lamp unit to complement the company's highly successful super-bright LED SynchroGuide cone lamp.

In the UK alone, 1915 Dorman has sold over one million cone lights, which, when dropped onto a road cone, automatically activate an on/off switch. However, the lamp will only illuminate in the hours of darkness or in low light levels (managed by the photocell switch) caused by bad weather.

 The company has now developed the ConeLite Synchro, a low-intensity lamp unit to complement the company's highly successful super-bright LED SynchroGuide cone lamp. When placed in a line, both models provide sequential flashing along its length to give the impression of a single light source travelling along up to 250 lamps.
