China’s Guangzhou 8393 Owleye Optoelectronic Technology is showing its new solar-powered traffic cone light, which aims to improve safety when warnings must be given to drivers of roadworks or other potential dangers.


To ensure maximum flexibility with an operator’s existing equipment, the new light has a stainless steel ring that can be installed directly on to any size of traffic cone.

Among its other qualities, it uses 3M internal diamond reflective sheeting to maximise its brightness and aid visibility at long ranges. An LED guide strip also ensures that the lit area is larger than normal and brightness is increased.
