Froogled!

It's definitely getting hotter. And that means a lot of tires will be blowing out on the freeway. Good pick up.

Have you ever use a flare??

Have you had someone you know use a flare??

Case Closed.
Move along...nothing to see here...

Ooh, shiny!

Thing is, I don't mind if someone runs over a phosphorus flare. This would be a bummer to get crushed at the side of the road.

Does anyone know how long they would last on one set of batteries? Or if the batteries would eventually go dead while sitting idle in the flare?

if you stare at this for long periods of time, will you have eye problems?

What? These aren't flares, they're bop-its with one button.

you must have at least 20 pieces of flares!
In for TEN! oh... flair?

It would make more sense if it just said EZFlare

Yes I have. Word of advise, don't stack flares then light 20 off at once - in dry grass.

These aren't as exciting as the good old fashioned road flares that light on fire. But then again those didn't have lifetime warranties.

Seems like a good deal. Each one sells for between $10-$20 per Google Shopping. I must figure it's quite a steal if you get all 6.

Yeah, the one I have is painfully bright.

Doesn't this ruin the whole fun of flares...

Fire

How do these work in extreme cold?

Maybe I missed it, but how big are these? Are they the size of a dollar, or a whole freakin tire?

A battery operated flare? Its an emergency, and I first have to find a Quickee Mart to get batteries? D'oh!

If I purchase these they will sit in the trunk for 2 years, and then when I finally need them the batteries will be dead, because there is no way I will remember to replace the batteries.

It says good for boating - are they waterproof?

Unfortunately even if you buy 3 (6) you will still be well below the minimum of 15 items of flair.

From ezyflare's site: "The four Alkaline batteries provide around twelve hours of continuous operation."

Also: "The power switch isolates the batteries from the electronic circuit. Therefore, the batteries will discharge only at the rate of their normal shelf life."

Just what I needed for my boat. Thanks Woot.

Is it Tuesday already?

"Q: Is Ezyflare waterproof?

A: The domestic version Ezyflare is water resistant. It can withstand heavy rainfall and it can float. The commercial model Ezyflare can withstand much harsher environments and is waterproof to one metre."

From http://www.chipmastercanada.com/pages/associated-products/ezy-flares.php

How big are these?


8x2 inches, got it off the website!

As an added bonus, you can use these with your Ouija board as a replacement planchette. Not only can you speak with those from another dimension, but now you can do it with eye-blinding strobes going off to make the entire process that much more disturbing.

That is how real mediums roll during their rave slash seances slash parties.

Here's some sweet video of it in action. Actually looks kind of cool! Run your own evil Wootoff

These might actually be more useful than the potted miniature rose plant for Mother's Day. Heh.

From their FAQ: The domestic version Ezyflare is water resistant. It can withstand heavy rainfall and it can float. The commercial model Ezyflare can withstand much harsher environments and is waterproof to one metre.

I doubt that. They are pretty flimsily constructed, but the batter compartment may be sealed off. I don't really remember much about putting the batteries in, expect that the battery compartment takes a screwdriver to open.

If I tape magnets to the bottom can stick on the roof of my car and pretend to be a police car?

If these are still here when I wake up then I'll get one (2).
