FAQ — Warning Light

1. What is a warning light?

A warning light is a visual signalling device that alerts people to hazards, malfunctions, or conditions requiring attention. In traffic and safety settings, it is typically a flashing or steady light mounted on cones, barriers, vehicles, or posts.

2. What kinds of warning lights are common?

Some types include LED beacon lights, flashing safety lights, solar-powered warning lights, magnetic warning lamps, and steady-burn safety lamps.

3. What power sources do warning lights use?

They may use rechargeable batteries, disposable batteries, solar panels, or vehicle power (e.g. 12 V) depending on design and application.

4. Are warning lights weatherproof?

Yes — quality warning lights are designed with waterproof or water-resistant enclosures and UV-resistant materials to perform outdoors reliably.

5. What colours and flash patterns are used?

Common colours include amber/yellow, red, blue, or combinations. Flashing, rotating, or strobe modes are used to increase visibility and attract attention.

6. Where are warning lights used?

They are used on roadwork sites, in emergency zones, on service vehicles, barriers, construction sites, railway crossings, and parking areas to alert hazards.

7. How do I maintain a warning light?

Keep the lens clean, check and replace batteries regularly, inspect seals for water ingress, and store in dry conditions when not in use.

8. What visibility range can a warning light achieve?

Depending on strength, lens design, and mounting height, warning lights can be visible from several hundred metres — ideal for traffic safety zones.
