The Rechargeable LED Safety & Emergency Flares 6-Pack delivers reliable high-visibility scene marking for EMS operations, traffic control, and roadside emergencies. Each flare features 16 bright 5mm LEDs, a weatherproof housing, magnetic base for hands-free placement, and a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery — eliminating the fire hazard and single-use waste of traditional pyrotechnic flares.

Product Overview
Traditional road flares burn at temperatures exceeding 1,500°F, posing ignition risks at fuel spill scenes, and are single-use consumables that add ongoing cost and logistics burden. The Rechargeable LED Safety & Emergency Flares 6-Pack solves both problems. Each unit uses 16 high-output 5mm LEDs to produce conspicuous 360-degree visibility in rain, fog, and darkness — without any open flame. The weatherproof housing resists water and impact, making these units suitable for deployment in all operational weather conditions encountered by EMS and law enforcement responders.
The integrated rechargeable lithium-ion battery eliminates battery replacement in the field and reduces per-incident cost to near zero once the initial investment is made. The magnetic base allows one-handed placement on vehicle doors, bumpers, guardrails, or any ferrous surface — freeing responders to manage scene operations rather than babysitting flare placement. Available in red (standard hazard warning) and amber (recommended by MUTCD for temporary traffic control), both variants deliver the visual conspicuity required by NFPA 1901, ANSI/ISEA 107, and most state DOT scene safety guidelines.
The 6-pack format is purpose-built for EMS units, fire apparatus compartments, and law enforcement patrol vehicles where multiple simultaneous scene deployments are standard practice. A typical motor vehicle accident scene requires a minimum of four flares placed at appropriate spacing distances; having six units in a single charged pack provides the coverage to mark an entire scene from a single pull. The all-weather weatherproof construction means these units can remain staged in outdoor vehicle compartments year-round without degradation.

Operational Applications
These LED flares are widely used across the following professional contexts:
- EMS Scene Safety: Mark ambulance staging areas and approach lanes at MVA scenes to protect responders from secondary vehicle strikes
- Law Enforcement: DUI checkpoints, traffic stops, and crash scene perimeter control
- Fire Apparatus: Rapid scene perimeter establishment upon arrival ahead of EMS access
- Tactical Perimeter Marking: Non-pyrotechnic option for marking landing zones, perimeter boundaries, and casualty collection points at night
- Vehicle Emergency Kits: Stored in patrol vehicles, ambulances, and department SUVs as standard emergency equipment
- Wildland / Incident Command: Mark operational divisions, helispots, and evacuation routes in low-light conditions
